Scanialara You won't be disappointed!

Reptileenbu Did you people see the same film I saw?

Peereddi I was totally surprised at how great this film.You could feel your paranoia rise as the film went on and as you gradually learned the details of the real situation.

Hattie I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

jodyfranz This was a pretty interesting documentary. It was about something everybody already knows about and yet a lot of people don't. Up til now I thought corporations got a lot of breaks, I had NO idea in some cases they paid nothing and in others actually got money in rebates.It was interesting to see the complexity of the tax code tied in with politicians unwillingness or inability to change any of it, it paints a bleak picture for the future of the US and shows just how manipulative corporations given the freedom can be. The story telling of this was ok, I found it fast enough and interesting enough to keep watching. I think though it might have benefited from a human narrator vs text on screen to liven it up a bit. The content is what really pushes this documentary up to a 6. It was a bit repetitive showing the protesting over and over again even though it nails home the whole David vs Goliath idea and how hopeless it seems. I think the movie was trying to go for a more positive spin here where you can get out and can make a difference but thats not how I saw it.

VortexV Corporations hardly pay any taxes by abuse of international tax laws and there are groups that are protesting this. These are facts that are exceedingly well known, and most agree that we should do something about it.But what? How can we close these tax loopholes? What initiatives and bills are currently trying to fight this problem?That's what I wanted to know. But the documentary doesn't explain it in the slightest. In fact, it doesn't really explain anything. It just shows some experts explaining that it is indeed bad. And shows over 20 interviews with students who say they were inspired by something on Facebook and decided to protest against big corporations. While surely the tax code is to blame.I can honestly say I learned nothing from this documentary.

stormkarsten If by watching this documentary, you were expecting some evidence that the United Sates is 'Not Broke', you will be sorely disappointed.The documentary claims closing tax loopholes can bring in $70 Billion in revenue per year. Nowhere is this paltry increase in revenue compared against the massive structural liabilities the United States faces.U.S. treasury debt is ~$17,300 Billion. U.S. unfunded liabilities are ~$125,415 Billion. Every U.S. person (man, woman, and child) owes about $400,000 each. The United States has a spending problem - not a revenue problem.1 star for accurate reporting of corporate tax loopholes. The rest is drivel, untruths, and unsubstantiated claims.

gavin6942 An exposé on how the government has allowed American corporations to avoid paying taxes and the growing wave of discontent that it has fostered.Another reviewer said this film is too one-sided, and I am afraid I have to agree with them. While I am on the same side of the political fence as the people who made this, I am unclear if the truth was told... and to me, a documentary should tell the truth. We do not need rhetoric, like corporations paying their "fair share". Is there a good reason they pay 0%? This did teach me some interesting things, though, such as about Ugland House. I have heard of the Cayman Islands and about how it is a tax shelter. I was not aware that so many of these businesses utilized the very same location. That just makes it seem even more of a scam.
