Featured review
It's a don't-see for any New Yorker. It helps us re-focus on what went on over the past two decades and clarifies just how the life blood of the city has been sucked out of it by the vampire, the homeless. Giuliani saved, SAVED and restored the city, removing as much trash as he could. One woman as the audacity to say she had a third grade education, and instead of giving her a free education, they gave her a job...HOW DARE THEY. Now Disneyfied, city Gotham has turned into a safe place for locals and tourists alike. Celebrations are thankfully staged police-managed barricaded photo-ops where we no longer fear for our own lives, and the people surrounding us are not all selling crack. New Yorkers can finally have a good time. This documentary fails to make us care about the immigrants who don't feel like US citizens...immigrants, you don't say? We see how the homeless have been placed in shelters in outer boroughs, thankfully given a place to stay, yet keeping their smell away, and they are complaining, no humans have ever been so ungrateful. We see how artists are removed from the streets, allowing normal citizens to walk the streets and not be badgered. If you are one of those who has been blinded by how much better the city is, you need to see this, you will hate the whiners as they get arrested and the homeless complain about being given jobs. If it doesn't make you thankful for what Giuliani has done, then you are lost.
