DVD Reviews of National Geographic - China's Lost Girls

DVD Review: Lisa Ling is a TERRIBLE host...
Summary: 1 Stars

Just witnessed some of the worst hosting ever-
--Lisa Ling assumes a condescending and judgmental attitude throughout the video China's reasons for the one-child policy. Most tactless is her asking several boys if they were "spoiled."
--Lisa, ignorant of the major Chinese dialects, persists in speaking Cantonese to a bunch of kids who speak Mandarin. Out of thousands of truly bilingual English-Chinese speakers, how did Nat'l Geo. end up with her?! Her Chinese ancestry is useless in China.
--Lisa asks some very dumb questions, throughout the video. E.G., To a woman abducted to be someone's wife: "Were you scared when you got kidnapped?" It's as if she was trying to elicit some sensationalism, while sacrifing hard reporting on real issues.

DVD Review: Life Changer
Summary: 5 Stars

Enjoyed the story. Gave real world of what to expect in the final adoption process. Worth the view for expecting adoptors involved in the adoption process.

DVD Review: Fantastic
Summary: 5 Stars

Fantastic story. Lisa Ling as a journalist is far better than as an actor. If you watch this, you'll be even more impressed with Ling's documentary in Nepal.

DVD Review: China's Lost Girls
Summary: 5 Stars

It is a great story about the Chinese Law about the one child rule and how many want boys, leaving many girls in orphanges.

DVD Review: excellent resource
Summary: 5 Stars

This documentary is an excellent resource for those who are considering adopting from China. I wish it was longer, but there is only so much detail they can fit into a 40 min documentary.
