Audience Member Hot Money delves into how deeply connected the economy and environment are and no matter what your beliefs are, you need to see this film. The human race is on its way down a dangerous path and we need to educate ourselves before it's too late. The relationship and banter between General Wesley Clark and Wes Clark Jr. are a perfect fit for this type of doc. 5/5! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member This film was very eye-opening for me, as I did not previously realize just how intertwined climate change is with our financial system. Although Hot Money warns of what could happen if we continue to ignore climate change, there is hope in knowing that we still have time to stop it. I also appreciated the few humorous moments that lightened up the tension a little bit. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Audience Member This was a very informative documentary that easily explained the effects of climate change on our economy and environment. Overall, a great watch! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Audience Member I am honestly not much of a politics person or know much about how the economy works, but this documentary made it easy and entertaining to watch and learn about the world I live in especially during this time. Like the other comments have said, it's eye-opening and no matter what side you're on, this is a doc to watch!! Definitely recommend even if you're like me and want to be more educated on the topic Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Audience Member What a tough pill to swallow! General Wesley Clack and Wes Clark Jr really force the much-needed conversation about the closely correlated relationship between the economy and the enviroment. We need to be doing more and the experts in this film tell us why and how. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Not gonna lie, this is a LONG movie! But it is so full of fascinating information and the father son duo who present it (General Clark and his son) are so real and entertaining. I recommend watching it in two sittings. The animations are also great and help explain a lot of the deep stuff. Super timely - pick up any major newspaper and you'll see exactly what this movie is referring to.
