MCT:August 17, 2008Horribly edited and not convincing at all in fact I think I'll go buy something at wall mart right now.(nn)

MCT:July 23, 2008I'm Not Shure what This Movie Is? Rather It's A Documentry or Just A Movie For Pepole To Hate Wal-Mart.

MCT:July 9, 2008Wal-Mart is EVIL! That's the idea behind this movie. They look at several different aspects of the company to prove how EVIL it is. Workers, compensation, medical care, assaults, factory workers, communities, clean water act, greedy Walton family, etc. Of course everything is one-sided and the worst is shown just to prove how EVIL Wal-Mart is. I'm not taking sides on this, just telling what it's about.

While some information is scary, Greenwald fails to get perspective from the employees that RELY on their job in this poorly-directed documentary.

MCT:April 8, 2008wal-mart= the devil. Ive been saying this for years. Someone has fianlly done all the work for me. Watch this film

It makes you wonder how much power the consumer really has. What would happen to Wal-Mart if everyone stopped shoping their?

An eye opener for me. I thought it was a MM tactic, but this bullshit is true. I wonder if Sam Walton is rolling in his grave?

Un buen documental, donde vemos como las grandes cadenas estan acabando con el sentido de comunidad, ahora solo les interesa comprar lo mas barato, explotar lo más posible, reducir la calidad de vida de las personas, chequenlo vale la pena

MCT:December 16, 2007THIS IS A MUST SEE FOR ANYONE WHO SHOPS AT WAL-MART - from the destruction of the small town shop owner, the horrid treatment of employees (esp. those seeking a union), to the workers in China and Bangladesh (yes folks, not made in the USA anymore), this film will open your eyes to this capitalist, monopolizing giant pig of a corporation. It is emabarassing for me to say I am a former employee myself.

I never realized how shady wal-mart is. A lot of their practices leaves a lot to be desired. Something really needs to be done before they become and even more destructive, evil force. Establishing a union would be a very good start.

Statistically speaking, Wal-Mart is worse than cancer and I actually like Tony Danza and Jim Varney better than Wal-Mart, but this was a ridiculously over the top propaganda film. The High Cost of Low Price nitpicks every little thing about the company--and for as much as I loathe said company I just don't think this documentary is entirely fair. (Like no one gets stabbed or kidnapped out of any other store's parking lot.) It's very intelligent as it bends facts and circumstance while it knows exactly who its audience is--right wing Christians. In its defense, I did miss the first 15 minutes but I got the jist within the first 2 minutes I caught.

MCT:November 4, 2007Anti-corporate propaganda that thinks it's smart and funny, but really has nothing to say. Make a point, damn it!
-
MCT:November 3, 2007It is hard because Wal Mart is a part of the problem, but without more time dedicated to practical alternative behaviors, this video can leave people feeling bad about themselves and helpless.

I found it particulary interesting after in a college business class my professor described Wal Mart as The Devil

I usually love documentaries but this one was very dull. I have to admit the topic didn't interest me that much, but it could have been treated in a much more interesting way.. However, I admit I learned many things while watching it. I never shopped at walmart and I sincerely doubt I will in the future.

Excellent documentaire. Dommage qu'il ne parle que des ÉU. Doit être semblable quand même au Québec.

Wow-Walmart is evil. If there's anything bad, Walmart's done it! I'm waiting for them to be blamed for global warming or something. A very biased anti-walmart "documentary." Lot of propaganda that could easily be debated.

this is a really good documentary! it shows how horrible wal-mart is. they are horrible to employees and foundations. u have to see this!
-
MCT:August 13, 2007Having worked there for 3 years and leaving with some bitterness, this movie isn't completely accurate nor is it false. It just is people's views; some that I share and others I don't.

Not particularly well done but worth seeing for the shocking facts and numbers. It's overly dramatical tone makes it seem ridiculous at moments, but it will surely help reinforce your will to encourage multinationals as least as possible. The sad reality is that people are so selfish that the only way to make us aware that big corporations are bad is by showing how they affect us directly. They are barely showing how they are enslaving third world countries for our thirst of consumption.
