Great film, low budget
|
I agree with many of the reviews here that this is a VERY low budget film, but when you watch it and consider what this "low budget lawsuit" did to earn international freedom of speech, it's well worth it.
This is not a thrill ride docu, but the facts that it covers are fascinating and important. It interviews Eric Schlosser (Fast Food Nation) and Colin Cambell (The China Study), and it covers nearly 15 years of footage (the lenght of the case being covered here alone makes it worth the ride).
The extras are really good, too. Even a thirty minute version of the secret tapes with the meeting with the McD's execs are included here. If you enjoyed Fast Food Nation, you should give this a go. It's low budget, and yes the court room scenese are bad enough to be funny, but they are all read from the acutal court transcript. All in all, this is a very important docu about the most important subject facing many of us today--corporate and governmental abuse of power and wealth. |
