Critics consensus

“The Corporation is a satisfyingly dense, thought-provoking rebuttal to some of capitalism's central arguments.”

Building its indictment carefully, with well-chosen interviews...The Corporation may leave you in a rage.

RTNewsweekMar 13, 2018

This smart, informative and lively polemic makes a strong case for viewing the corporation--which enjoys the legal status of an individual--as a psychopath run amok.

There's at least one great hour of filmmaking in The Corporation.

RTWorld Socialist Web SiteFeb 15, 2021

Despite its denunciations of corporate malfeasance, Achbar, Abbott and Bakan's work is curiously devoid of urgency. There is no crisis of the system.
