About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you want an accessible, anger-inducing deep dive into how a major financial collapse happened and who benefited; Not for you if you dislike pointed documentaries or prefer a calmer tone like The Fog of War.
Pros: clear explanations; gripping and unsettling; extensive interviews | Cons: one-sided viewpoint; heavy-handed narration; feels manipulative at times
