Nobody in the world is watching




The plot of “Battle in Seattle” is freely based on the militant street protests against the WTO meeting in Seattle. We get to follow a number of (fictitious) characters immediately before and during the protests and riots, which rocked the Emerald City in 1999 and symbolically kicked off the anti-globalization movement. The film is bland and uninteresting, despite the controversial angle (it sides with the protestors). Only two stars!
