Source: Wikipedia — Critical reception (CC BY-SA)The public reaction to the movie "Freefall: A Reckoning for Boeing" is largely critical. Critics say the film's trailer does little to prepare viewers and that it comes off as insensitive given the severity of Boeing's actions. Some also feel that Netflix prioritizes entertainment over accountability, particularly in light of not sending any CEOs to prison for their roles in the company's demise.
From the trailer's comments
Airbus is sitting with their popcorn for this

@randomnickify · 1276 likesThe fact that not a single CEO was sent to prison is another crime in of itself on top of the reckless homicide they committed. And their retirement package and pay is another crime and slap in the face of the victims they killed.
