“It’s a powerhouse of a documentary that will leave you both thunderstruck and boiling with rage. This film lays out in exceptional, but always understandable detail the argument that the meltdown of 2008 was “not an accident”. Because of his personal and professional background, his intelligence and his inclinations, Ferguson is especially well-suited to creating knockout documentaries that cogently and carefully lay out all the particulars of a significant situation.” – Kenneth Turan, LOS ANGELES TIMES
“A masterpiece of investigative non-fiction moviemaking — a scathing, outrageous depressing, comical, horrifying walk through what brought on the crisis. Scarier than anything Wes Craven and John Carpenter have ever made…treats the enormity of its subject with the gravity it deserves.- Wesley Morris, THE BOSTON GLOBE
