One should really take these types of one-sided documentary with a pinch of salt, but this is another case, as with Michael Moore’s movies, where that’s a very hard thing to do. This is a terrifying look at big business. It’s a little repetitive, and the whole thing has pretty much been covered before – but, like a recent IMDb commenter said, we just don’t seem to get it no matter how many times we’re hit over the head. It gets a little far-fetched with its linking IBM to the Holocaust (not that it makes it any less frightening), and it’s a little long, but it definitely got me looking at my Disney Tinkerbell coffee mug and Apple gizmos in my supermarket-brand-clad lap in a different way.
