A not at all ambitious and remarkably empty documentary designed for those who live vicariously through strangers who paddle relaxingly downriver and say stuff. We learn so very little about the Passaic River that would make it worthy of consideration. This lazy assemblage of largely pointless camera shotIs set to stock music is reminiscent of a first year documentary film school student project. Once again, PBS wastes taxpayer on a pointless and banal work that one might expect to see on a kiosk int a local, one room museum that survives on community tax revenue and the rare handful of pocket change donations
PBS once again insults the intelligence of viewers by poorly appropriating public tax dollars, grant trust fund money, and donations "from viewers like you." This most amateur attempts at documentary filmmaking is a boring, banal and irrelevant exercise with no merit aside from being a community piece to be presented at the next city council meeting.
