@HBcorpse ty for clarification.
But with all this happening mainly (for now) in the USA, maybe it should be provaping movie. Of course, the biggest concern is who is targeted with thi movie and what are the expectations.
Having in mind that we have anti-smoking campaigns so, so long, and they statisticaly didn't give alomost none results and also well known facts about connection between big business and politics, this would be just another movie with same problem in the middle of the story but from different angle.
Every ex-smoker knows how it's hard to leave smoking. I am pretty sure that I would never left it I wasn't introduced to the e-cig. That's the reason why I believe that it would be better if it was provaping movie. Problems must be dealt from bottom and then going up. It would be better and more efficient to first take as many people of cigarettes as possible and then even if nothing could be changed in business- politics malversations, at least more people will have longer and healthier lives.
I agree with everything you're saying, minus one point.
The movie isn't solely pro-vaping, and isn't based on the USA.
The same evils we have in America are, often times, even worse in other countries.
This film is a wake up call to all anti-Big Tobacco/Big Pharma people, and to those who don't know how evil these groups are.
Did you know one of the biggest tobacco companies in the world is owned and operated by the Chinese government?
If you think American Big Tobacco essentially owning the US government is bad, imagine if the US government owned the largest tobacco company in the nation.
That's how sick these issues are, worldwide.
That's why this film has such a broad scope.
Yes, vaping is practically a miracle to smokers who have used it to quit...but there are other ways to quit.
And beyond the ways to quit, the message is that there should be less power and governmental pull in the hands of these companies.
They're illustrating the sinister amount of power these corporations have over their governments...which is why people are basically condemned to die from smoking, and even prescription drug use.
Having the film be pro-vaping would be too small a scope for their goal in this film.
They don't have a target audience.
This film is more like turning on the lights over the dark corners of the evil and greed that dwells within BT/BP/BG.
It's a worldwide message. It has premiered all over the world.
In fact, after seeing it, the Prime Minister of New Zealand called for an immediate halt on their recent regulations on vaping.
I am of the opinion that it can be called a success, exactly as it is.

On another note, if you have Internet/Netflix, find a documentary called "Prescription Thugs"
It gives another great angle of a similar story, geared more towards Big Pharma, and rooted more in the US...but still lights up a more complete picture of what is going on.
