Even people who don’t agree with <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/matt-walsh">Matt Walsh</a> say his movie is a must-watch.
The Daily Wire podcast host’s new project “<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/am-i-racist">Am I Racist?</a>” is a huge hit on its opening weekend, debuting in the number three position and outearning Lionsgate’s “The Killer’s Game,” which was the second-biggest new release of the day. 
“Am I Racist?” also made history for being one of only 15 <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/movies">documentaries</a> to open in over 1,500 theaters after expanding from just 200 to start. The documentary had the third-highest opening day gross for a documentary in the last decade, as The Daily Wire previously <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/am-i-racist-opens-as-third-highest-grossing-film-in-the-country">reported</a>.
So far mainstream critics have mostly ignored the film’s existence even as viewers flock to <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/rotten-tomatoes">Rotten Tomatoes</a> to rave about it. As of Sunday afternoon, “Am I Racist?” has a <a href="https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/am_i_racist/reviews?type=verified_audience">99% audience score</a> on the site, with more than 500 verified reviewers weighing in. 
The most surprising feedback comes from several moviegoers who admit that even if they disagree with Walsh on other points, they were fans of the film. Many of these reviews came from the Reddit subthread <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/boxoffice/comments/1fgdmp6/am_i_racist_gets_an_a_on_cinemascore/">r/boxoffice</a>.
“Saw it yesterday. I&#8217;m not a Matt Walsh fan, but I really enjoyed it,” one person wrote. “It&#8217;s not making claims like ‘Racism doesn&#8217;t exist’ or anything like that. It&#8217;s all about exposing the anti-racist and DEI grifters who profit off of nonsense. Right wing Borat is a pretty accurate statement, but I honestly found this to be a lot funnier than Borat 2.” 
“Even if you don&#8217;t like Walsh I think you should give it a chance, it&#8217;s really not as political as I think many would expect it to be,” the reviewer added.
“Democrat who disagrees with matt walsh on everything but saw movie anyways with a trumper friend, it&#8217;s HILARIOUS,” another person wrote. “Most I&#8217;ve laughed in a theater in ages. It&#8217;s not like &#8216;what is a woman,&#8217; it&#8217;s really not a political &#8216;takedown&#8217; with any serious interviews or political stumping. It&#8217;s a straight up borat where the main character is more like larry david in curb your enthusiasm, goes around pretending to be an unintentional a**hole and creating tons of hilariously cringe and awkward situations.”
The Redditor added, “Having seen &#8216;what is a woman,&#8217; I was very surprised at the comparative lack of political commentary or serious interviews. It&#8217;s literally just right wing borat, and similarly hilarious.”
A third viewer agreed, writing, “Liberal up in Canada, increasingly holding my nose as I vote for Trudeau. Honestly man, it’s surprisingly good. I was REALLY surprised that Matt Walsh could do the Borat thing. Sacha Baron Cohen spent YEARS perfecting the art. But, by the end of film, the comparison is in fact warranted.”
The reviewer continued, “The film is hilarious and worth watching, especially if you’ve been on the wrong side of one of these grifters despite allegedly being in the same team.”
The Daily Wire entered the entertainment space in 2021 with a mission to disrupt Hollywood. The company has since released six films, including the acclaimed “What Is A Woman?” starring Walsh, one of the most-viewed documentaries of all time. “Am I Racist?” is The Daily Wire’s first theatrical release and is already defying industry expectations with its box office performance.
“Am I Racist?” is <a href="https://www.amiracist.com/?_gl=1*1orjxp8*_gcl_aw*R0NMLjE3MjE3NTYxNzAuQ2p3S0NBandxZjIwQmhCd0Vpd0F0N2R0ZFgyTkE1Z3RmazgwZXNuY1QyRVVvMXBOZEhxRzAwdWRGS0ozTFMzWWNsUzVnVkswSmFtdTlCb0M5R1FRQXZEX0J3RQ..*_gcl_au*MTU5NzI4NjQ0Ny4xNzIxMTYzNDAz*_ga*MTY5NTQ0MDk1Ny4xNzIxMTYzNDAz*_ga_CZKR9ZYKJP*MTcyNjMzMzM0Ni4xMDEuMS4xNzI2MzM0NDQyLjU5LjAuMA..">now playing</a> in over 1,500 theaters.
