Wal-Mart: The High Cost of Low Price: Got the chance to watch this last night. The info. is solid, but as a documentary the presentation is a tad bit weak. There are plenty of valuable nuggets of info. about the company and its doings, in terms of treatment of workers (healthcare, wages, etc.: this gets the most coverage), environmental concerns, exploitation of Chinese workers (wish there was a bit more of this), lack of safety concerns for customers, etc. The coverage was wide. As an actual film, I think it could have performed better… it could have used an extra layer of polish. The fact that it is low budget probably could have been covered up a bit better.
But, definitely worth the watch.
