Is "People V. The State of Illusion" Worthy of a 2 Star Review?

I wasn't sure what to think when I was reading this article on azcentral.com. People V. The State of Illusion was given two stars out of five by Bill Goodykoontz who said: "Unfortunately, the Scott Cervine-directed film gets bogged down in a hackneyed tale of a man sent to prison for manslaughter and his nearly miraculous conversion from first-rate selfish jerk to something approaching a messiah figure." My initial reaction was: "WHAT?!"

Yes, the film cut from interviews with experts and then back to the reenactment sequences, but I think Goodykoontz completely missed the message of the film. It's evident by the film's poster that this is a docudrama about our perception of reality. In fact, the poster introduces the message up front and to me, the film enhances that notion. I really enjoyed the documentary and believe that the message was conveyed well, for what it's worth.
