Kind of bland, quite frankly... One of the things they gloss over is the least admirable thing about Bezos, which is his view of employees.

I have a great deal of admiration for director Khoa Le and writers Allison Burnett and R.V. Romero. They are true independent filmmakers challenging themselves to take on the story of one of the world’s wealthiest men.

Rated: 7/10

Good inspiration. But, too flat in film.. should be more drama or excitement

Particularly bland and flat. The film focuses almost entirely on Bezos’s workaholism, as if that alone explains his success. The negative sides are barely touched on, reduced to a trivial argument with his wife and colleagues. There is no real opposition to Bezos’s figure, nor any meaningful critique by the end. Everything remains in a state of total flatness.

Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars

Everything, the picture, the acting, the plot, the script, looks like a low-budget film, but the main thing they didn't show was the attitude of the main character to the staff and potential clients, and his motto in life, 'if you wanna get rich and become a billionaire, deceive and rob them.'

Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars

I don't get why this looks like such a low budget movie. One of the biggest companies in the world. And a movie about one of the richest man in the world. The direction, the camera, the cinematography, actors everything C class. What happened? This did no justice to Jeff Bezos's Legacy. I feel bad for all those that worked on it, Sorry you were low balled for the budget of this movie. Or the execution was horrible sorry to say
