> This Reddit thread, asking the exact same question, suggests that it’s being spammed with those reviews because Barack and Michelle Obama were executive producers of the film.

Also, this thread from here on the SDMB is relevant:  
[Leave the world behind” (produced by the Obamas) is freaking out the CT’ers](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/leave-the-world-behind-produced-by-the-obamas-is-freaking-out-the-cters/994619)

The ideological and cultural divisions in this country which is a central theme of the movie is causing a lot of shit to be stirred up in the real world. Life imitates art imitating life.
