    Don't Believe the Hate

    This movie is a well-written, well-directed project by a high school crew. It's no Endgame, but for its pay grade and the age of it's directing members, its a marvelous piece of film that strives to be pure cinema. The director has a bright future ahead of him. Good choice by the producer. Keep up the good work and don't let some salty students get you down!

    Double Trouble: Unsettling Accents and Sexism in "Debunkers Inc"

    "Debunkers Inc" not only falls short in the authenticity department with Ryan Andrews' questionable Russian accent but also stumbles into problematic territory with its treatment of gender dynamics. The film's portrayal of its female intern raises concerns about perpetuating stereotypes and reinforcing outdated, sexist tropes.

    The character dynamics involving the female intern are troubling, as she appears to be little more than a pawn at the mercy of her male counterparts. Instead of presenting a progressive and respectful depiction of women in the workplace, "Debunkers Inc" regrettably chooses to perpetuate tired stereotypes, where the female intern is relegated to a subordinate role, bossed around without agency.

    This sexist undertone undermines the potential for the film to contribute to a more inclusive and equitable narrative landscape. The female intern's character seems to exist solely for the convenience of the male leads, contributing to a narrative that patronizes and diminishes the role of women in professional settings.

    In an era where audiences are increasingly critical of gender representation in media, "Debunkers Inc" misses an opportunity to challenge stereotypes and instead reinforces harmful clichés. It is crucial for filmmakers to recognize the impact their choices can have on societal perceptions and to strive for more nuanced and empowering portrayals of female characters.

    While "Debunkers Inc" may have its moments, the combination of a problematic Russian accent and a regressive portrayal of gender dynamics leaves a bitter aftertaste. It is my hope that future productions will approach character dynamics with more sensitivity, recognizing the importance of breaking away from harmful stereotypes and fostering a more inclusive and respectful cinematic landscape.

    Lots of fun to watch!! Ignore the bitter dude who gave it 1 star

    I had a lot of fun watching this movie. The description literally says that it's goofy high-school detectives-- you have to understand that it's going to be silly. Each character was individually charming and well-written, the movie was well-directed, and everyone who was a part of that project is incredibly talented. Give it a watch and don't listen to that unnecessarily scathing reviewer!

    Also, the actor who plays Link is real cute. Just saying.

    Dr. Saginov is such a BEAST!!!!!

    All of these reviews are just previous students of one of the characters and are taking out their anger of probably getting a bad grade in his class because they probably sucked by leaving bad review. But I generally enjoyed the movie and cannot wait to watch it gain on Showtime!!!!!

    Debunkers Inc.: A Cinematic Catastrophe Unleashed by the Dubious Maestro of Incompetence

    In the dimly lit catacomb of cinematic despair that is "Debunkers Inc.," I find myself compelled to unleash a torrent of fury and disillusionment. My son, an unsuspecting student at Cathedral Catholic High School, was lured into the abyss of this cinematic atrocity by the misguided recommendation of a friend who, in turn, had the misfortune of witnessing this calamity unfold in the film class presided over by the dubious maestro of incompetence, Ryan Andrews.

    "Debunkers Inc.," a film produced and acted in by Mr. Andrews himself, stands as a monument to the unforgivable sins committed against the art of storytelling and the sanctity of education. How dare my son's friend, ostensibly an ally in the pursuit of cinematic enlightenment, endorse such a travesty? How dare Ryan Andrews, under the guise of education, subject young minds to this carnival of ineptitude?

    The plot-or what masquerades as such-of "Debunkers Inc." is a tapestry of inanity and confusion, a narrative train wreck careening off the tracks of coherence. The characters, mere hollow shells draped in the illusion of personality, stumble through scenes with all the grace of marionettes manipulated by an inebriated puppeteer. One wonders whether the script, if a script even existed, was an afterthought in the fevered dream of someone with a tenuous grasp on reality.

    And then there are the performances, a cacophony of cringe-inducing overacting orchestrated by none other than the architect of this disaster, Ryan Andrews. It is a performance so ham-fisted, so bereft of subtlety or skill, that I cannot fathom how this man continues to hold a position as an educator. The supporting cast, if one can generously apply that term, stumbled through their lines like sleep-deprived zombies in a low-budget horror flick.

    The visual assault that is "Debunkers Inc." serves as a stark reminder that the art of cinematography can be reduced to a nauseating display of shaky handheld shots and inept framing. It is as if Mr. Andrews handed the camera to an amateur with a penchant for cinematic chaos, leading to a visual experience akin to watching a blender mishandle a delicate soufflé.

    My son, a victim of cinematic misguidance, was ensnared in the clutches of this abomination due to the ill-advised counsel of a friend who, one can only assume, fell prey to the same cinematic Stockholm Syndrome. The fact that such a film is presented as educational material in a high school film class is an affront to the very concept of learning through the medium of film.

    In conclusion, my fellow film enthusiasts, I implore you to shield yourselves from the excruciating agony that is "Debunkers Inc." It is not merely a film; it is an insult to the intellect, a mockery of artistic integrity, and a betrayal of the trust placed in educators to nurture the minds of the next generation. May Ryan Andrews reflect upon the monstrosity he has unleashed upon impressionable minds and reconsider his role in the realm of education and filmmaking. May future generations be spared the torment of enduring such a cinematic calamity under the guise of education.
