Summary: A Debater in Fantasy Land
Comment: As much as I'd like to think that my debate career was on the same line as College football quarterback, some how it just didn't have the same impact. I viewed this movie the same way geologists viewed 10.0 and Astonomers viewed Armageddon. It was pretty laughable. Knowing that Tom Miller, UCLA Debate coach, was the consultant for this movie explains it all. I truly believe that this movie expresses how he views himself

Summary: One of the worst movies ever made, debate or no debate
Comment: I'm rather humored, or disgusted, by the many good reviews of Listen to Me. This is one of the worst movies ever made, be it as a "debate" movie, or an "80's" movie, or whatever. It has terrible writing, terrible acting, and just a terrible premise.

Now, I'm biased. I teach debate, and as a result, I saw this film in the theatre. And it was so bad it was hilarious to debaters (maybe that is something to recommend about it). The script was essentially a wet dream of what debate should be like according to one debate coach, whose standards of debate were quite dubious at best (I knew him and had to deal with him). The debate part of the film is the worst of 80s montage movies. Not only is it just wrong in most respects (a plan in 2AR? Please! Even novice high schoolers know that's BS), its quite simply one of the most melodramatic and formulaic movies in the history of cinema. The one scene that just killed me was the final round in front of the Supreme Court (yeah, right), against Harvard, wearing three piece suits and using computers (beyond the pale, both in terms of the computers and the fact that Harvard (!) debaters would be in three piece suits--real college debaters know the truth).

But even if you were to dismiss my complaints as akin to my father's complaints about Vietnam movies not being "accurate," it's just a bad, bad, bad movie. It's laughable. It's sad, it's so laughable. Terrible flick. Watch it like you would watch "Plan Nine from Outer Space."
