Blending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction
There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.
It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
This was a well crafted movie...but only seemed to tell one-side of the story. Yes, there was something phenomenal happening with the workers, community, "Artie T", etc. all being involved. Loyalty like this is a rarity.But the "Arthur S" side of the family had some legitimate beefs with the way the company was being run. Let's not forget that Arthur S prevailed in court proving that Artie T screwed his side of the family, and was funneling profits in many ways back to his own family.This was well done, and surprised me in the production value, and the thoroughness of the filmmaker. My only concern is that it appeared to only tell one side of the story.
