Francisco T An important film demonstrating how much sway corporations hold over our governments. Governments are supposed to be of the people, for the people. They're not there to serve corporate interests. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/15/23 Full Review paul s I can't help but feel that instead of exploring ideas honestly, this movie is a polished vehicle for propaganda and manipulation. They certainly explore the amorality posing as principled morality within certain corporations, but there is certainly a gargantuan bias at work here. Noteworthy exceptions of discourse are that the proposed changes being imposed upon us will result in the starvation of billions, along with the dramatic reduction in standard of living. When some folks promote equity, it sounds pretty, but what they mean is that they want to impoverish people instead of finding novel ways to lift them out of destitution and poverty. Decarbonization might as well be considered as depopulation because it's certainly going to starve a great many people, possibly billions. This documentary leaves a bad taste in my mouth. I don't expect to watch it again. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member A film with some interesting takes on the evolution of corporations through the 21st Century but nowhere near as intriguing as the first film. The film starts off with following this wealthy Kuwaiti guy to meet Blair and JP Morgan Chase's Jamie Dimon. I felt this scene didn't really serve any purpose in the film and felt like filler. From there it sheds some light on how these conglomerates destroy the economy and then try to show themselves as the hero i.e. JP Morgan Chase in Detroit. The Bridge International Academies was also very fascinating to learn about regarding Microsoft and Facebook's plan to make money off private education in underdeveloped economies. The analysis of Australia's destruction of the environment and Trump's tax cuts were also interesting. However, the film starts to talk about how more left-wing politicians are being elected in the USA, but doesn't really state how this will negatively affect corporations and goes on a bit too long. The final bit they end on is the murder of George Floyd which feels a bit tact on and not really related to the documentary and the exploitation of society by corporations. Overall, a disappointing film that did not nearly wow me as much as the first film. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Audience Member For every concern you may have about this country, your life, our shared future, this movie sheds a light on how we got to where we are and what people are doing about it. It's a gut punch and inspiring at the same time - a must see movie. Share it widely. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member Excellent sequel. Debunks so much corporate propaganda. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member A must watch for everyone - true leaders put familiar events in perspective and most importantly remind us that we can shape the future we deserve.
