Left wanting more

This film really seemed to lack direction. Just providing a summary of US backed incursions and regimes in South and Central America is really only scratching the surface. Surely anybody inclined to watch this film would already be aware of there issues.

I wanted deeper analysis. Who were the individuals behind these events? What was their motivation? Just seeing the same angry ex-CIA nut saying "we need to protect out interests" over and over again didn't cut it for me.

I agree, though this is an understandable problem with a film that must spend so much time addressing the conventional lies that shroud these issues in western countries. I would love to see more thorough treatment.
