Many false analogies and false socialistic/communist statements from Klein, but get points for very importantly pointing out how the US government are droven by big companies to create wars and prosper from them.

One of the worst documentarie movies I've ever seen. The information provided is very interesting, but the point the directors/ writer wants to make is very much unclear. It's anti-capitalist and fails to explain why so called 'badguys' whos methods dont work or even have a negative effect, remain powerful players and influences throughout the rest of their lives. The problem is they had all the right information but they failed to make it credible and to simplify it for the general public.

The main problem with this documentary is its lack of detail: much requires prior knowledge of the events depicted but then fails to add to this satisfyingly. As such it comes across as just being an 80-minute advert for Naomi Klein's book. Certainly intriguing but some of the theories definitely raise an eyebrow, the links between them precarious at best. Like all docs, would've benefitted most from an unbiased viewpoint, rather than the heavily slanted (anti-capitalist) one it takes.
