| "The Big Spill steers clear of finger-pointing and other
knee-jerk conclusions throughout its rounded, well-researched
examination.... [This] documentary will be difficult to top for its
comprehensiveness, clarity, and fairmindedness.... What makes
The Big Spill particularly noteworthy is its long-view stance."
Kenneth M. Chenko, The Bergen Record |
"A first-rate program - distinguished by its comprehensive scope,
dazzling photography, computer generated graphics and pointed interviews
with all the main players.... Smartly written, produced and
directed." Eric Mink, St. Louis Post-Dispatch |
