Moviecut—Uranium: Twisting the Dragon's Tail

The show starts off promising, going over how Uranium was founded as well as it's properties. But then the it starts going off on its' destructive power. There was too much of that "Unleashing the Dragons Tail" nonsense going on. I was really hoping for more of an informative documentary, not some mythical tale. Towards the end of episode 1, he repeated way too much about what happened in Hiroshima. It sounded like it started to get too political. I then read the summaries of the next two episodes and knew exactly where it was going, so I decided to cut it off here. Overall - Starts off promising, but then gets too mythical for me.

This documentary is very comprehensive and accessible look at Uranium and the power of atom. It starts from the very beginning of its discovery and goes all the way to Fukushima disaster. Both the benefits and the downsides of the power hidden in the manipulation of atom are explained and i found that it did not try to push either side, leaving the viewer to decide for himself. It simply presents facts and opinions of various scientists. The factual accuracy of this documentary, at least as far as i know, seems to be correct. All in all, this is definitely one for people interested in in Uranium and nuclear power.
