- QuizEnd of film: This motion picture is a dramatic interpretation of true events based upon hundreds of media accounts of these events, as well as interviews with many of those involved. Much of the dialogue is based upon publicly recorded conversations and the congressional record. None of the people portrayed in this film were compensated. Some of the actual names have been changed, certain events and characters have been fictionalized and some time lines have been condensed for dramatic purpose.

- Citazioni
Jack Begosian: It started about 300 years ago in England with the turning of public lands into private property. And it changed the way we think, the way we view time, and land, and water - and even people. It turned them into units. Commodities to be bought and sold, and therefore exploited.
Radio Caller Woman: Yeah, but what is bought and sold is constant. That's never going to change.
Jack Begosian: You know what Sarah, that is absolutely incorrect. Society need to approve of the things to be turned into commodities before they can be bought or sold. People can be bought or sold, correct? That did happen. As horrific and diabolical as that may sound, it's a fact.
Radio Caller Woman: Yeah, and still slavery happens in some countries today.
Jack Begosian: Regrettably true. But why is it that in western society we no longer buy and sell people.
Radio Caller Woman: Because it's immoral and it's wrong in all aspects.
Jack Begosian: Oh, well is it wrong to sell water? What about air, would it be wrong to sell air?
Radio Caller Woman: Air, I mean come on, I mean you can't sell air.
Jack Begosian: No?
Radio Caller Woman: Well, what if you can't afford it, hmm?
Jack Begosian: There's lots of people all around the world that can't afford much water. And what happens?
Radio Caller Woman: I don't know.
Jack Begosian: They die. Is it so far-fetched, Sarah, you can sell water but you can't sell air?

The direction in this is terrible. The pace is ridiculously show and the look is very stagey. "You two stand over there and take turns reading these sentences."
It is filled with self-important, self-righteous, overwrought people who have all been horribly wronged by an evil corporation and a corrupt government. Woah. That's original. Really hard hitting stuff. Corporations are evil. We would be so much better off in the world without them.
Too bad. I was looking forward in particular to see Kim Coates outside of his Sons of Anarchy role, Andy Garcia is a good actor, and I am a huge fan of Forest Whitaker. But this thing was dumb, dumb, dumb. Poorly written, poorly directed. Decent production values. It looks professional. That's the only reason I gave it the three stars.
