    Watched it a few days ago. Not a great watch to be honest. It only shows very small snippets of conversations or speeches. There's a lot of wasted time in it. It doesn't really go into anything in any great detail. There's very little sense of conflict in any of it too, in terms of the challenges in what they do by being so outspoken about religion etc.

    Have to say I was disappointed.

    Speeches that are otherwise publicly, it's worth noting. I was unimpressed.

    Krauss is a hateful wretch with a big mouth who clings onto the atheist cause to forward his own popularity - he knows next to nothing about religion or its history and speaks with confidence about things he knows nothing about. His answer to every question tends to resort to some self-righteous guff about his knowledge of science and how it explains the world around him. I've no time for him at all and I think he's a scar on the face of the modern atheist movement. Richard Dawkins is at least tolerable and knowledgeable and experienced in this subject and it doesn't surprise me that the movie has received negative reviews because the sub-intellectual standards of Krauss invariably dragged it down.

    Watched half of it there but had to turn it of as I found it somewhat surprisingly boring.. Agree with wretcheddomain in that Krauss seemes like a very unlikable chap. Needed more Tim Minchin :D
