Title: Despite good intentions this film fails to deliver
Review: As the title suggest this film is an attempted expozay of the evils of Wal-Mart. In the familiar fashion of the modern documentary style it is structured around interviews with former employees, members of the community affected by Wal-Mart, Wal-Mart commercials, and news items - and makes no attempt to offer anything but a biased viewpoint.Sadly despite its good intentions this film fails to deliver. It is poorly filmed and poorly edited. Many interviews lead nowhere. The film would have benefited from a narration to bring some coherency. We only hear from disgruntled former employees and community members. There are no interviews with "experts" or Wal-Mart itself to tell the other side of the story or lend weight to any of the allegations."Wal-Mart: The High Cost of Low Price" fails as both polemic and entertainment.If you want to see an excellent documentary on the evils of big business then you should check out "The Corporation"
