Disappointingly tame and unfunny documentary, following two well-intentioned activists as they masquerade as WTO spokesmen and mock the greed of their target audience. Problem is, their humour is too opaque, their audiences too small, their effect negligible. And where is the savagery? A wasted opportunity.
