This is one of my favorite documentaries ever and I own hundred's of them. Wickedly sharp wit here. It is one of the most compelling examples of corporate criminality that I've ever learned about.

P.s. - Pick up the book it's based on [of the same name] it's a dry read but it's got lots of stuff the documentary couldn't go over.

This movie shows just how corrupt the business world really is and it wasn’t only the company, the accountants and their lawyers it was everybody! The fucking Bush administration had their nose in it. I hate politics it pisses me off how these people get away with everything.

Its been a while but from what I remember some sick tunes "and if your going to san Francisco"

An excellent documentary..really compelling and informative..and i enjoyed the soundtrack (the "dear mr fantasy play us a tune" etc) it was pretty funny.

my brother is in finance...and we both find this type of case study fascinating.

Trainspot

The kid who said Farenheigh 9/11 was better should be shot, this movie and that movie are on two completley different things, it should be compared to "The Big One" Not FH 9/11.
Anyways, great movie beutifully filmed and put together.

Excellent movie.

It details the corruption that led to the collapse of Enron clearly.

This movie is an eye-opener. If you have at all followed the disaster of ENRON, you’ll want to see this movie to get all the inside scoop. If you haven't followed this story, watch this movie to learn about it! It's amazing! This documentary gives you the full spectrum of how ENRON climbed the corporate ladder and the quickly fell. This documentary is not a Michael Moore style documentary… you’ll see the facts without opinion or re-write. You’ll see first hand accounts and testimonies from Ken Lay and Jeff Skilling as well as the ground level workers affected by the ENRON scandal. This is one of the best, if not the best, documentary I’ve seen.
