They Were There Trailers

What does it mean to be an IBMer? Every employee experiences the company in different ways, but the global impact IBM has made on business and society over the last 100 years gives us all a common framework. "They Were There" is told by first-hand witnesses—current and retired employees and clients—who were there when IBM helped to change the way world works.

Reviews
LastingAware The greatest movie ever!
Cathardincu Surprisingly incoherent and boring
SparkMore n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.
Abegail Noëlle While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.
John Doe This is not a documentary. This is a promotional circle-jerk of IBM employees sitting around saying how great they are.Having said that, it is probably the best promotional circle-jerk you will ever see, much thank to Morris' use of his interotron, and savvy film-making skills. Still, it is pretty useless to anyone who is not an IBM'er.In other words: If you found this film because you like IBM, you will probably find it interesting and invigorating. If you on the other hand found this film because you're a fan of Errol Morris' documentaries, then you're better off watching a Coca Cola commercial.
