Review of the Blu-ray edition,
This 90-minute film visits a few Chinese manufacturers and interviews several Americans and Chinese to obtain a diverse collection of insightful opinions on the current economic cold war between the US and China. It veers off course a bit and spends more time than necessary, in my opinion, to discuss China’s human rights issues, but the information presented is fascinating nonetheless. The film first aired on CNBC in June this year and is one of the better and more in-depth documentaries on the subject.
Buyers should beware that this Blu-ray disc from Earthchild Production is a burned disc in BD-R format. Not all players can play BD-R discs, so check your manual. The 1080p picture is fine, as is the stereo soundtrack. Other than on-screen, unremovable English subtitles for the Mandarin comments, there are no other subtitle options. Bonus features include about an hour of interview segments not included in the film.
