erltyriss A usefully documentary to show the scoop of modern freight shipping, and the size of the industry. It does present a good eye opening of the ecological cost of shipping, as well as the pollution, but sometimes feels a bit doom and gloom toward the entire thing. The interviews and film of the shipping infrastructure make it worth seeing. In the end, it presents the negative side of shipping, which comes mostly from the longevity of ships and drive for cost saving; but, it could have done more to show the positive aspects of the shipping industry as well.
ops-52535 basic and educative documentary,with an objective look at how goods are being freighted around the globe,and a very subjective negativism,almost fatalistic view on the use of containerships,their owners, international governance and the ominous use of containers.the lack of presenting better alternatives is a drawback that makes it an 8.
