An intriguing look at how the core values that once defined America (and much of the world) have come to be corrupted by greed, self-importance and instant gratification -- and how the unsatisfying results of those dubious qualities neverAn intriguing look at how the core values that once defined America (and much of the world) have come to be corrupted by greed, self-importance and instant gratification -- and how the unsatisfying results of those dubious qualities never amount to enough. This ambitious undertaking covers a lot of ground but, unfortunately, not always in a coherent approach, one that would have benefited from a little more objectivity and a little less intrusiveness on the part of the filmmaker inserting her own story into the narrative. A noble effort, to be sure, but one definitely in need of some retooling. Expand

Generation Wealth is a well made film. It is so disturbing you can't enjoy it. This movie made me sick. Well made, but don't see this. You will throw up.

Photographer/filmmaker Lauren Greenfield examines the power of money by focusing on a few people who are driven to the narcissistic standards that our society has created for wealth and beauty. This is NOT a dazzling display of riches andPhotographer/filmmaker Lauren Greenfield examines the power of money by focusing on a few people who are driven to the narcissistic standards that our society has created for wealth and beauty. This is NOT a dazzling display of riches and luxury, but an examination of a few people who have been affected by their own desires. Greenfield tries to bring this home (literally) with a comparison of her own dedication to her career. Not really that interesting. While there are fascinating stories and plenty of social commentary, the outrageous opulence isn't the focus. Her last doc (The Queen of Versailles) did it better. Expand
