5.0 out of 5 stars A must see for those hoping to protect their families, June 23, 2006

This review is from: TIME-BOMB: America's Debt Crises, Causes, Consequences and Solutions (DVD)

Where will the US' incredible mass movement towards taking on more and more debt lead? After viewing thoughtful and well-intentioned economists, financiers, and politicians implore our government and the public to change from this course of deficit spending, you may be scared. I am. Sad, too. Editor/interviewer/photographer/producer John Ince makes a convincing documentary of the difficulties facing the American Empire. It seems as if a lot of pain for a lot of people likely lies just ahead. I hope I can spare as many as possible from the worst of what could come. On the other side of this possible Armageddon, those who survive will be more inlightened and likely eventually live in a new era of an evolved and responsible global society. I also hope this DVD helps far-sighted and generous individuals prepare themselves for what may come and to prepare to help others.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good Message, Very Amateur Production, September 8, 2007

This review is from: TIME-BOMB: America's Debt Crises, Causes, Consequences and Solutions (DVD)

First, the message is very important, and its why I gave it 3 stars, but its poorly edited and produced which is why I can't give it 5.

Just to give an example of the annoying features, an economist will say something like, the deficit is a huge problem that no one in congress wants to deal with, like an "an elephant in the living room", and then a still picture of an elephant will transition in, in case the viewer forgets what an elephant looks like. Another example is a computer graphic of a bomb exploding.. this is played after every segment, dozens of times, making me sick.

The video is littered with all these kinds of amateurish graphics and pictures that add nothing, and possible detract from what's being said... its as if the film maker picked up a copy of Premiere a week ago and went nuts with silly editing and transitions.

Its a shame because I really wanted a dvd that I could lend to friends about this topic. There is at least one other dvd out there that presents this subject matter, in a **MUCH** better way:
"60 Minutes - Wake Up Call (March 4, 2007)"

originally aired on 60 Minutes, but now sold here on Amazon. Its a bit pricey for this 12 minute segment, although you can probably find this "Dirty Little Secret" clip on youtube or the like.

1.0 out of 5 stars Couldn't even finish it, March 13, 2008

Reviewer (Hollywood, Ca USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: TIME-BOMB: America's Debt Crises, Causes, Consequences and Solutions (DVD)

this is the worst documentary i've ever seen. the first review was obviously done by the filmmaker or his mother. the editing is horrible and the graphics look like they were done on a commodore 64. this must be a student film because most of the interviews are college students or college professors.

this movie is incredibly boring and the graphics really get in the way. god, this thing was bad.
