Re: The Corporation (2003/2004 documentary)

Quite a bit over the top. The Corporation is a very one-sided view of large corporations. Any documentary film that gives that much time to Naomi Klein definitely has an ideological axe to grind.

That being said, I still recommend it. There is a lot of food for thought here, some very nice production value and almost all viewers will learn quite a bit from watching it.
