While I did see slightly more promotion than with the UK release debacle, the Midas Man team still don't seem to have remembered that the film has officially released - if you missed my link/didn't get around to it on October, the film has been out globally for around a week now.

This is an admittedly difficult situation for me, because I don't feel
comfortable promoting it without critique, but I also think the film is deserving of at least some support (if only for the fact it was extant, frankly.)

I've spoken to a few people involved with the film, and what I've gathered is that a lot of the poorer decisions were out of the hands of the creative team, and that much of the primary research the team engaged with had to be discounted for various reasons.

Honestly, I believe that the film that came out was not the intended vision, and I also do believe that the team behind the film were and are passionate about Brian and aware of his life and struggles. Regardless, that doesn't detract from the poor showing of the final product.

I'm not quite ready to go on yet another Midas Man rant, but I did want to remind people it's out officially now. Watch it, engage with it, rigorously critique it or praise it endlessly - just don't take everything it has to say at face value.
