Nominated for the Grand Jury prize at the Sundance Film Festival and one of Eberts favorite films of 2008, I happened across this film at the library and since it was fairly short I gave it a shot.Let me start by saying that there are some opinions expressed in this documentary that can easily be argued as not the approach our country needs to take. They place blame on our financial crisis on this that might not necessarily the main reason. They do however NOT blame China, and address that our fear in China is exaggerated but somewhat realistic.
This film is all about the national debt and how the National Budget is dangerously high. No matter how you slice it, we are spending the next generations money, and we are sinking into a financial hole that we may never get out of.
Almost a horror film in some ways because the stark reality that our kids might be broke and that we will not have Social Security in 50 years is pretty scary. I enjoyed the film, and will leave it up to you to decide how realistic all of these problems really are.
Vote: 8/10
