What parts of the movie did you feel inadequate to address? From what I gather from the trailer, the movie was just littered with fallacies and misrepresentations, so just bring up whatever issues you see and others can help you.
I really have to watch it some time. From what I've heard, the arguments which they let the atheist professor make are not all that bad, but they simply let the Christian guy counter them with completely silly emotional arguments which actually don't refute them, and then declare victory. The atheists in the movie are all strawmen who are bad people and/or simply angry at God, but secretly believe. In other words, they are written to nicely confirm all the prejudices of the evangelical moron in the audience.
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
