Too "Conspiracy Theory"? Real?

The movie began well. The stuff about the Federal Reserve and the policy of "lending out money" is true enough.
I've heard a lot of theories about 9/11, and a lot of theories about America's previous wars. The documentary mentions some of them, and adds several more to them.
The creator has picked a good set of books as his source, such as Debt Virus, The New Freedom, etc., and some dubious ones.
But as the documentary proceeds, it gathers more and more conspiracies, many absurd sounding, many almost outlandish.
For a 50 minute video, it became too tedious and too full of the ravings of a conspiracy theorist. It would have made a bigger impact if it had been shorter and with fewer theories.

Well I only watched about 15 minutes of it.
I know much of what I saw was true at least regarding the Federal Reserve, but I knew that 20 years ago.
Some of the quotes are questionable in authenticity but I dont have the time to try and track them down.
The war stuff has alot of crap in in though.

Edit: ^ All of that is after watching just part 1
This part 3 seems better but the problem lies in mixing truth with error.
Overall the full movie has to be bad because of how badly it started in part 1 which was pure lies and deceit and propaganda and distortion of the most insidious and dangerous type.When you mix lies together with the truth it comes off badly as propaganda,sorry.You cannot be for them and against them at the same time.Whoever made this film hasn't woke up yet or is a deliberate creep.They've poisoned any good information by inserting gross falsehoods.

I liked it. If you liked it, check this one out: http://www.occupation101.com/index.html
It's Noam Chomsky and lots of other scholars and writers on the Israeli/Palestine conflict. It's what Zeitgeist left out.
