This was fun and educational to watch. To those giving it a low rating because, 'it went political', the best reply is similar to what happens when kids from small towns attend University and return home as Liberals. No one indoctrinated them, they just learned more about how the world works, or should work, and became Liberal as a result. Educated people are more likely to be Liberal. Same here, especially today, the Repubs have a lot more a$$holes in their ranks than do the Liberals. That's a fact. And their A$$hole in Chief is an orange a$$hole who is also a narcissist clown. Get over it. John Cleese adds some humour, the cast is good and is pulled from the ranks of University profs and other professionals, giving this documentary the ring of truth. So why is $$holism so much on the rise lately? One explanation is that The Commander in Orange gave license to them all, and their fascist buddies, to crawl out from under their rocks without fear of reprisal. Too bad for the rest of us that now have to deal with these cretins. Great movie, very well done. A fun idea to explore.

The movie is a talking-head documentary with people talking about a-holes. That's as deep as it goes. But worse, everyone was congratulating themselves on not being an a-hole and we have to get together and fight all the a-holes out there. Guess what, we can all be a-holes. Filmmaker read a book and then filmed people talking about a-holes they encountered. I hope the book was more in-depth than this movie. Spoiler alert, he spends 20 min showing that Canadians can be a-holes too. We honesty thought this was a mockumentary.

It's low hanging fruit. It's good to address it but those, that represent the title, most often are oblivious. As a defense mechanism; we all must, at times, imitate the A**hole. I give it a ten, because it's not a 1...My only two ratings... Spoiler EVERYONE IS AN A**HOLE!

I thought this was an interesting "documentary" up to a point. They distinguish between "assholes" and "dicks," chief difference being that assholes don't realize they're assholes. Prim and property behavioral professionals toss the words about as though they're clinical. But then they just couldn't help themselves and went political, pointing out people of the opposite political persuasion as being assholes. Sorry, your impartiality and credibility went out the window.
