In House of Numbers: Anatomy of an Epidemic, an AIDS film like no other, the HIV/AIDS story is being rewritten. This is the first film to present the uncensored POVs of virtually all the major players; in their own settings, in their own words. It rocks the foundation upon which all conventional wisdom regarding HIV/AIDS is based. House of Numbers could well be the opening volley in a battle to bring sanity and clarity to an epidemic gone awry.

Scanialara You won't be disappointed!
BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
Bluebell Alcock Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies
Tymon Sutton The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.
Freebasedog This movie is really great if you love people saying AIDS a lot! I think they say AIDS like a million times and HIV like maybe almost a million times, but those are just my guesstimates and liable to be inaccurate just like the estimates of HIV infections as reported by the lying villainous cheats at the World Health Organization. They don't care about health!!! They just care about promoting AIDS cuz they invented it and they wanna make money off it kinda just like how Billy Ray Cyrus basically almost for sure makes tons of money of Miley Cyrus like at least for now cuz she's under age and stuff. It also makes me happy that if some stupid doctor or sciencetist ever tells me i have HIV or AIDS I can just be like "Screw you lie-entist! I've seen the truth and I know this is positive just cuz you are trying to get your spiff for most AIDS diagnoses in one month and I know what that's like cuz I worked in an electronics store but it's totally different cuz people who came there wanted a VCR or maybe a Sony Walkman and I don't want AIDS, jerk!"
Seymour Asses This documentary is a waste of time for those who watch it and those who made it. All the "evidence" in this movie is either outdated, twisted out of context, or false.The most hysterical part is the beginning where the director says he has lots of questions about aids and is going on a journey to uncover the truth. It's obvious he is already a hardcore AIDS denier and only intends to present this point of view, no matter how illogical.I have a very open mind, and am an admitted conspiracy theorist. However, disproven conspiracies, such as this one, with no factual basis, are not worth learning about.Dear Mr. Director, if you really don't think the AIDS virus exists then why not just infect yourself and document your life for a few years? If it's as harmless as you say then you have nothing to worry about.
roaringfirefilms All documentaries serves as possible tools of manipulation and I see many thoughts flying around about this one but at the end of the day what it does show is that many key scientists in the HIV and AIDS world clearly have very different opinions about what they are dealing with. We live in a world where we want to put things into simple boxes and give them an easy heading. Life is rarely like that and what this documentary does is makes the viewer want to know more. I don't think anyone watching this doc comes away thinking they now have answers they didn't have at the beginning, just more questions and thus less likely to just take any information put in front of them as fact.People no doubt will get into fighting matches over this doc but I found the diversity of idea's within it to be fascinating. To hear any professional in the field of HIV say that due to differences in testing you can be HIV positive in one country and negative in another is fascinating. If this doc opens up more debate that leads to a clearer picture then that's great. I don't imagine the audience of this doc are stupid enough after watching to suddenly throw away the condoms. This doc really kicked me up the ass to find out more, a pretty great attribute if you ask me.
Clark Baker As a criminal investigator with thirty years of experience, I was extremely impressed by House of Numbers.In under 90 minutes, the director allowed the subjects tell their stories without getting in the way, allowing his audience to make up their own minds without putting them to sleep.What results is a breathtaking and heart-wrenching expose of scientific corruption not seen since Pope Urban's condemnation of Galileo. Like a slow moving train wreck, House of Numbers allows the grand dragons of HIV to indict themselves for profit-driven crimes directed at young mothers, homosexuals, minorities and third world victims throughout the world with the same detachment that made Eli Weisel's NIGHT so powerful.In short, Mr. Leung does for AIDS what Jeffrey Wigand did for Tobacco - the difference being that Wigand was an insider and Leung a thoughtful bystander.By any investigative standard, Mr. Leung's film is a remarkable and important achievement – a MUST-SEE for anyone who cares about scientific integrity and healthcare.Clark Baker LAPD retired
