It was really hard to sit through this film. I had a pretty good idea of what I was getting myself into, but I was just too curious. "Won't Back Down" is a propaganda film and not even cleverly disguised - just like "Act of Valor." My hope is that people are getting wise to this game and not falling for such embarrassingly blatant manipulation. The mainstream media includes entertainment, which is used to indoctrinate and reinforce certain viewpoints and crappy values that are useful to the ruling class. Trying to bash unions and public education is part of the latest privatization effort and an attempt to further erode and destroy institutions that are at least set up to benefit everyone, and not just enrich a small elite. Public education could certainly be improved, but it should remain in the public domain. Don't waste your time with this film. It is pure propaganda.
