Netflix on Friday premiered its exclusive documentary, “Mitt,” which promises “an authentic view the public rarely glimpsed during the media frenzy of a national campaign.” What did viewers take away from this unprecedented access to Mitt Romney and his family?

#Mitt is just making me sad that he's not the president right now. This sucks.

Fascinating to see @MittRomney asking his family whether he should run for president or not and taking notes on a legal pad #Mitt—

I still don't agree with his politics but the #Mitt doc showed him and his fam to be genuinely likable. Also, he cleans when stressed.—

Josh Romney on the character beating candidates take: "This is why you don't get good people running for president…" #Mitt—

Watching #Mitt on Netflix. This film has given me a new look on him. Would I voted for him? No! But, I would like for him to be my neighbor.—

I'm glad Mitt Romney isn't president but I wouldn't have minded hearing his wonderful 1950s radio voice for four years. #Mitt—

Watching #MITT on netflix. If he was portrayed this way during the election, he would have won hands down—

Indeed.

I may disagree w/ #Mitt’s policies, but it’s sad his political team was so poor it takes this documentary for us to finally get to know him.—

This film should have been playing November 6th in prime time. But, alas, it wasn't meant to be…#MITT @MittRomney—

Watching #MITT. First minute breaks your heart. We've all lost more campaigns than we've won. Shot of Romney about to cry captures that.—

"I'd rather lose with this guy than win with anybody else." Strong words. So true. #TeamMitt #MITT #Netflix—

Watched "#Mitt" on @netflix. I really hope people, esp non-voting Republicans, watch it & realize how much better @MittRomney was 4 the US.—

What an awesome documentary. #MITT http://t.co/DKdRGcA9Yx—

I was really hoping #MITT would end with a twist ending… #letdown @BarackObama is still, unbelievably, the president.—

Of course, not all were won over by the film.

30 minutes into this documentary and I am more than relieved that this psycho wasn't elected #MITT—

#MITT lost because of a lack of empathy– look up he word "empathy"– it cannot be willed into your being– it has to be there. Period.—

12 min. into #MITT and still find the guy about as interesting as a sheet of drywall.—

This corny ass man was almost the President. Thank you, Beysus. #mitt—

Exit question:

AM I THE ONLY ONE CRYING WHILE WATCHING #MITT ?—
