8. To my knowledge, Marx never founded a government.
I enjoyed the film, too and don't have a problem with any of your other comments, but laying the blame for Stalinism and Maoism on Marx is a bit much, like

blaming Adam Smith for Reagan and Bush's bankrupting and destroying America.

Just because someone touts a given intellectuals ideas doesn't mean they uphold them at all.
