SECRET SOCIETIES
1 of 1 people found this review helpful.
I recommend it! Although better script writers could improved the base story line, it apparantly has a genre following as 2 or 3 incarnations have been made already. Being a thinly veiled take on Yale's Order of the Skull and Bones Society,The Skulls stretch a secret society's danger to democracy (and for that matter reality) a bit. How much? All I know is that both Presidents Bush were members as was Bob Kerry. During the last election both were asked about the society and both (Kerry, especially) were irritated by the questions. So how much does it mirror reality? We don't know, it's a secret society! I believe those who distrust government will be satisfied with the film, those who trust government may be introspective or just laugh. Still, it's a good tale of a student who loses control of his very existence a la Cary Grant in North by Northwest.
