Endgame: Blueprint for Global Enslavement is a 2007 American documentary film written and directed by Alex Jones.[1][2]

Subject matter

In the documentary, director Jones describes the Bilderberg Group, tracking them to Ottawa and Istanbul to document their secret meetings and reveals an alleged eugenics-obsessed group of global elite whose mission is the elimination of most of the earth’s population and the enslavement of the rest.[2] He covers the formation of the North America transportation control grid, discusses the pseudo-science eugenics used by governments, and describes the creation of the North American Union.[3]

Critical reception

Josh Rosenblatt of the Austin Chronicle described the film as "2½ hours of cinematic gold."[3] In a 2008 profile of Alex Jones in City Pages 's Artists of the Year issue, Steve Marsh wrote "Jones is only getting better" and that Endgame was "was his best film yet, a comprehensive investigation of our brave new world that named names."[4] In a review on the Romanian news site Hotnews.ro, the documentary was noted for its convincing reportage of the supposed agenda of those associated with the Bilderberg Group.[5]

With an opposite view, Glenn Erickson of DVD Talk wrote that the film is "so obnoxious and pernicious, it's scary", and found that "Endgame instead sells a wild conspiracy fantasy with something to offer every malcontent and paranoid on the planet. If anything, Endgame's rants actually help Globalism, by branding its opponents as irrational cranks". He summarized with "Endgame's hateful lies are too outrageous to parody. Awful, ugly propaganda that sounds like third-rate satire, is sold as the Truth".[6]

Robert Lloyd of the Los Angeles Times reported that the film received 116 five-star reviews on Amazon.com.[7]

The movie inspired the album Endgame from Megadeath. Dave Mustaine confirmed this in an interview given to Infowars on 25th of September of 2009. [8]
