Act Social

About This Movie

Act Social is an intriguing blend of comedy and documentary that dives into a pretty serious topic – the decline of civil discourse. Directed by Sean A. Mulvihill, you’ve got Colin Mochrie from Whose Line is it, Anyway? leading the charge, which really gives it a unique twist. The film plays around with improv as a tool for conflict resolution, mixing light-heartedness with some heavier themes about societal division. There's this fascinating moment when Karl Rove steps out of his political persona to do some improv with Mochrie, and honestly, it’s both surprising and a bit endearing. The pacing keeps it engaging, and the way they explore serious issues through comedy makes it stand out in the documentary realm. Overall, it’s a refreshing take on how laughter can bridge gaps that seem impossible to cross.
