it really doesn't go well into how we got here. It deals mostly with the reaction to the crisis. There were two people in the entire thing that were very good at explaining parts of this very complex topic. One was the reporter from I think it was the NY Times (a black haired guy). He was able to really bring this story down to where it needs to be for the average citizen. The other person was the one who was able to explain how bankers and speculators created the mess with sub-prime loans. Now, the most surprising thing to me is how Paul Krugman described Hank Paulson and Ben Bernanke. He only had favorable things to say about there skills and intelligence. All in all it was an interesting documentary and not what I thought it would be.
