I've looked through dozens of articles for documentary films, and all of them just reference the film as a "documentary" and no other genre. Should the lead just reference that its a documentary film instead? Rather than both a comedy and documentary. Not sure on the Wiki's guidelines for this.

Wikipedia articles generally follow how the most reliable sources describe a subject, per WP:BESTSOURCES. At least two sources, including Variety, call it a mockumentary. Variety also calls it a satire. So far, there does not appear to be a consensus in the sources about which genre to use, so more than one description may be warranted per WP:VOICE.

Enough said. Audience scores are not reliable, and in the case of far right propaganda films, reviews in general are not reliable because serious critics will avoid platforming these films on principle, which means only people promoting these films will ever review them. This happened often enough that we should really need to reconsider site policy on how to cover the reception to films which will only ever be watched by people who have already made up their minds that they will rate it positively no matter what. It creates a false narrative that these films were more positively received than they actually were. 46.97.170.18 (talk) 15:06, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Am I Racist made its production budget back in two days, and outperformed The Killer's Game which released the same day, despite being on far fewer screens per boxofficemojo. I think you can safely refer to AIR? as a mainstream film rather than "far right propaganda" but don't let fairness and WP:NPOV talk you out of it.2604:3D09:C77:4E00:D58C:E229:13E4:13FC (talk) 20:30, 17 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
