That's what's great about his approach: he focuses on the most mundane of subjects and makes us think about them.

This is real hothouse stuff, and Hustwit does a nice job elucidating it.

5.0/10

Has sporadically intriguing moments and stylish editing, but its lack of insight, elaborations and synthesis makes it seem deficient in both form and function as a documentary.

Colossal waste of time. Lots of people bumbling around talking about industrial design in very general terms. It never gets to the meat of anything. Defines SLOW.

Nice look inside design and design theory that expounds upon some of the examples I remember from a design class.

I am a lover of design and design philosophy. You don't have to be one to enjoy this documentary. When you get the great Dieter Rams, Jonathan Ive and Marc Newson into one program talking about design philosophy you think to yourself that the world could be a better place because of them - they are today's philosophers ...

Utterly tedious. Who cares? Well, maybe if you're a designer. But I'm not. Big fat yawns. I turned it off.

Perceptive, but lacking any astounding understanding of the subject.
