Whatever your opinion, this is still interesting to watch.
I liked the cultural difference aspect of this film
The critic people should talk about more often
An intriguing fly-on-the-wall documentary that confirms capitalism is wrong and big corporations are just evil.
This movie takes a very unique look at Chinese and American culture in the workplace and the role of labor unions and automation.
An okayish docu but the parts in America were kind of borring
It’s both big and little things that make culture clash fascinating and sometimes irksome. So captivating to watch it play out in real time.
Very strong, thought-provoking documentary--but the ending suddenly shifts focus to automation, which didn't seem the point of the movie.
Not sure why there was so much hype on this. Enough memorable moments to merit a watch though
Good documentary! It's enlightening to see how people from different cultures see the workplace.
