Review of The Wave

I don't know who the summary quote is from, but it is true. This is the message in Shakespeare's Julius Caeser, "I come not to praise Brutus, but to bury him." "The Wave" is based on a true experiment in a California high school. Most commentators missed that even the teacher was surprised at how well it worked. There is something in the human psyche that allows us to be manipulated. I think that persons who criticize the movie miss the point. I was very impressed and interested on the truism demonstrated in the story. People wonder how persons could follow Hitler or Stalin or their like and this movie shows just how easy it is to dupe the public. This is a very important message in a democracy.
