Tries to protray the man as a pervert and a climate activist, absolute rubbish. Wouldn't waste my time on this propoganda. Just more historical distortion to fit the narrative of today. Try actually reading books before watching this awful representation.

RUBBISH
0% Intellect, 100% Sexual Frustration
The Unabomber was coming up with fascinating ideas on society from as early as the 1970's and as time goes by, those ideas become more prescient and more true. So, how does this film go about exploring these great insights into society? How does this film explore the intellect of its subject? The sad answer is, it ignores it.
Ted K, was a fantastic opportunity to do something intellectually stimulating, but for some reason, a choice was made to ignore the intelligence and make the story about a crazy hobo who lives in the forest, struggles with sexual frustration and makes mail bombs because he can't find a girlfriend.
If I were conspiratorial, I could easily imagine the powerful overlords of our society were getting so worried about people reading the Unabomber's manifesto, that they set out to destroy his character by making this film.
The film is competently produced and Sharlto Copley's performance is strong; the problem is the approach. This film didn't attempt to study Ted Kaczynski's character, they set out to assassinate it.
Found it hard to believe
Far too much character study and dramatised mental-illness scenes shadowed the facts, and intelligence of this man. I am assuming they didn't want to glorify him in any way, but pigeon-holing him into 'the angry little petty lonely man' does the truth great injustice. Of course aspects of this side of his personality led to his identification and capture, but to me it came across as a half portrait filled in with abstract nonsense.
