House Of Numbers Movie Review

Plot: This is a documentary that brings all the accounts that are there about HIV/AIDS in order to bring a greater, clearer and more sanitized understanding of this highly misunderstood disease. It brings together all the veteran and renowned figures and laureates on this subject which will give us a more sharpened picture of it from various places of the world.

What you may like:

1. The documentary is heart touching as it touches on the very delicate topic of the disease of HIV and AIDS. It raises questions about the kind of image we have of the same.

2. It is fascinating to see various claims that are being made in the documentary that are absolutely contrary to our regular understanding of HIV and AIDS.

3. It will definitely move you to tears and may also upset you to an extent which is the whole point of the documentary and therefore, can be said to be successful in dealing with this delicate matter.

What you may dislike:

1. The director claimed to be a neutral party while talking about the theory of explaining and understanding HIV and AIDS but on the contrary the director is a sheer denialist of the same and has a very biased outlook.

2. A lot of evidences that are given in the movie are completely out of context and are edited in such a way that they become supporting points to the theory when actually they are the very opposite of it.

3. As much as this documentary claims to clear the air about HIV and AIDS and form a clearer understanding of the same, it will only render you more confused and mislead you in more than one way. Therefore, it is not something that you should take very seriously in order to implement it.

Verdict: Watch this documentary to gain a different perspective of the disease but do not take it seriously because it is misleading to a very large extent.
