What's frustrating about the film is that even though it's clear Stone is making a number of valid and important points about both media manipulation and America's untoward political influence, he's also so obviously biased in his reporting.

Director and cast
Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
Stone has a crucial, overlooked viewpoint to impart, but as a documentary filmmaker, his content and technique are not terribly engaging.
It looks like raw notes and impressions for a future novel.
South of the Border offers valuable historical, social and political context, particularly if you aren't an international-news junkie.
Oliver Stone might not be the ideal reporter to send on a truth-seeking mission to South America, but if nobody else wants to do it, we have to take what we can get.
