This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Yes, this film is biased against Trump, but, honestly, I don't believe Satan could make a positive documentary about "The Donald." He is so loathsome, that sometimes I think he is going to let us all in on a little secret and confess that his behavior has actually just been an Oscar-worthy, long-running piece of public performance art. After all, how can a person actually be as awful as he is? Given my intense and well-cultivated dislike for the man (creature?), I was on high alert for unfair confirmation biases; however, this film simply rings true. What's more, google more recent news about this "resort", or visit its website with its small, overpriced lodge, and it seems certain that Aberdeen dodged a bullet when this loser project had its plug pulled after only the golf course was completed. Given the recent collapse of the global economy and golf's decline in popularity, if the entire development had been completed, Aberdeen most likely would have been the proud owner of a huge white elephant. No doubt Trump would have walked away little worse for the wear, simply leaving a stinky mess behind for others to clean up. Trump truly seems to be a totally reprehensible human being (unless it is all a performance, in which case he would still be pretty reprehensible for carrying it on for so long). He continues to exhibit a degree of selfishness and egotism befitting only a very young and very spoiled child. Scrooge McDuck is less of a cartoon character than Trump. In a way, given my preconceptions, I'd feel better if I could express some high-minded reservations and knock my rating down, but I just can't find any excuses not to give this production a ten. My postscript is that I was in Scotland for a week when I was young, and this film fully reaffirms my beliefs--Donald Trump sucks and Scotland possesses phenomenal natural beauty--let's try to keep them apart.

If you are going to do a documentary, this is a great one to use as a template. It was very informative and really gave accurate and insightful information. It was creative and showed heart. It gave the audience a satisfaction, even though it was not known what the result was. First of all, using personal stories was the key. This gave the audience something to root for. The families in Scotland really had a voice and were able to be part of something that meant something. I can appreciate the crew for what they did with this project. They helped those who were being exploited. This documentary was so powerful, it changed history and presently, Trump lost this battle and the right people one. Congrats to this documentary for meaning something!

I have lived in Aberdeenshire all my life. My father and mother have both lived in Aberdeenshire all their lives as well as at least my previous 4 generations as that is as far back as my parents have traced. I remember going to those sand dunes many times when i was younger and i might have actually been living very close to the course if my parents hadn't opted to move to a different house in Aberdeenshire. When plans to build the course came about i didn't know who Donald Trump was very well and all i heard about it was a few newspaper headlines which said it would bring jobs so i thought " that is fine if they want to build it, i haven't been to the dunes in the last couple of years". However, i recently watched this documentary in geography at school. It opened my eyes to so many things such as : how the police can be biased, how little the "big" people care about the "small" people and how bad an effect it has had on the environment. I also found it hard to believe anyone in their right mind could actually mean what Trump says. There is not a doubt in my mind that the course should not have been built. I found it extremely hard to give my favourite movie "The Shawshank Redemption" 10 stars but this, my new favourite film, easily warranted a 10 star rating. You must watch it.

A significant supporting actor in this farce is never seen on camera nor ever quoted directly. It was Alex Salmond (The Gutless One) who surrendered the land to the foreigners and tasked uniformed thugs from Grampian Police to enforce the usurpation.Whilst tub-thumping his epistle for Scottish independence he dropped his drawers for Trump. This documentary not only tells the tale of the triumph of dollars over decency, but also gives the lie to the SNP's assertion that they can keep Scotland self-governing in the event of the rest of Britain gaining independence from Salmond and his ilk.A must see for anyone concerned with the individual's fight against pernicious politicians and big business.
