About this movie

Active Measures tells the story of the interconnected rise of Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin, while exposing the largest and most effectively executed espionage operation in history. An ambitious KGB colonel, Vladimir Putin, rises from anonymity to become the president of Russia. By taking control of the media, cracking down on dissidents, and using the Russian Mob as a branch of the government, he manages to turn Russia into his personal Mafia state. Having made a name for himself as a real estate mogul in New York, Trump decides to go all in on Atlantic City. When his casinos fail, he finds himself bankrupt and holding billions of dollars in personal debt. Desperate, he turns to Russia for financing. Putin, after consolidating presidential power in Russia, attempts to subdue Russia's neighbouring states. Using cyber-attacks, rigged elections, and outright invasion, he threatens European stability. When America sanctions him, he turns his election meddling onto his biggest opponent, the United States, using his secret ally, Donald Trump. Relying on exclusive testimony from 29 global experts, including Hillary Clinton, Senator John McCain, John Podesta, and Jeremy Bash, Active Measures is a must-see thriller, essential for understanding the full context behind today's headlines.

the one star reviews and comments are hilarious. Clearly trump nuts. They haven't 'proved no collusion ' they have been unable to find evidence of collusion. Subtle difference. You cant possibly watch this documentary without realising Putin owns trump for a number of reasons

Mueller report and Republican-led inquests agree that Russia has been meddling, heavily, in US (and others) politics. This film is a stark warning how Russia has been using misinformation and propaganda to create division and sow doubt in order to destabilise Western Countries and alliances for decades. It is illuminating and terrifying. Countrymen need to stop fighting each other and start fighting the real enemy. Ask yourself how did a country go from “Better dead than Red” to “Better Red than Democrat”? And, half of America, and to a lesser but no less worrying degree, Australia, Canada, Britain are falling for it hook, line and sinker!
