This documentary is nicely done, but not perfect. It could easily have been five minutes shorter, which would have helped with the pacing. Nevertheless, this is an interesting presentation of archival footage.
I like the way this film covers optimists, realists, and pessimistic survivalists. As someone who lived through this, I can tell you there was a LOT of hype back then. Scaremongers selling books were saying things like freeway accidents would occur as power brakes failed at the stroke of midnight. These sorts of claims were laughable of course -- no engineer is going to increase his workload by making systems more complex than needed -- especially when a system MUST be reliable. Why on earth would a power braking system need to know the time and date? It's ridiculous.
As the New Year came and went, the film shifted into covering some interesting and (mostly) uplifting thoughts about global connectivity and the uncertainty and possibilities of the new Millennium.
While not highly structured, this documentary has straightforward (linear) time-flow, a decent cross-section of opinions, a low-key tone, and a good ending (that raised questions about the future). I would have changed a few things, but not much, so I'm giving it eight (8) stars.
