🎬 MovieFinder's Take

This is investigative filmmaking at its most potent, functioning as a meticulously assembled prosecutor's brief. The film's power lies not in sensationalism, but in its sober, methodical presentation of evidence—documents, interviews, and historical footage that build an overwhelming case.

What lingers after the credits roll is a profound unease about the intersections of commerce, science, and government. It's a sobering lesson in corporate influence that extends far beyond the screen. — MovieFinder Editorial
