It shakes up your perceptions. And it makes you suck in your breath.  – Variety

Documentary sequels are rare, largely due to the nature of the format and the subject covered in the initial film. That’s not to say they don’t exist, however, it’s just that the topic being explored needs to be expansive enough and have evolved enough that there’s more story to tell (think Michael Moore’s Fahrenheit 11/9 and Al Gore’s An Inconvenient Sequel: Truth To Power). That’s certainly the case for The New Corporation: The Unfortunately Necessary Sequel from directors Joel Bakan and Jennifer Abbott, which picks up where their 2003 film The New Corporation left off.
