Carlos Ghosn: The Last Flight

The Nissan company was circling round the drain. Ghosn came in and turned it around and restored it to profitability. As a result, Nissan reciprocated by trying to get him thrown into prison. This is disgusting beyond words. There was absolutely no proof of any malfeasance. But that did not stop them. A horribly tragic example of no good deed goes unpunished.

PLEASE DO NOT BUY NISSAN PRODUCTS !!!

Some other aspects of Japan come out in the movie which are also very depressing.

Criminal courts in Japan have a 99.4% rate of convictions. This suggests that they are trying to outcompete North Korea in running a kangaroo court system. No honest court system can have a 99.4% rate of convictions.

It is apparently okay in Japan for folks to hate non-Japanese people, just because they are not of Japanese stock. I have met many wonderful Japanese people. But it is shocking that a significant fraction of the population would have such attitudes. By comparison, I am an American. But never in my life have I encountered anyone saying the non-Americans are a lower form of life.

The movie is very well made and in a straightforward documentary style. But you can't help but emerge very moved by this extreme injustice done to this man. Please note that nobody has ever proved any malfeasance on the part of Mr Ghosn; they merely drummed up accusations against him.

I do not understand the comment that the subtitles are inadequate. Maybe there was some early version where this was the case. But when I watched the film (February 2022), the subtitles were completely satisfactory. So if they were initially problematic, evidently this was fixed.

An amazing story of how a genius manager can become the victime of an international conflict of interest between two powerful economies. Regardless what is said or believed, Carlos Ghosn remains The Master of Managing to Excellence.

Subtitles provided only in English but not for the French and Japanese narrative therefore you only get half the story. We Pursued this for half of the Doco then gave up in frustration. Appalling production.

What a man , and what a documentary!! , If you want to know the rise and the fall and the escape of carlos ghosn this is your documentary, and how he played the Japanese government.

Nissan spent over $200M running a smear campaign against Ghosn. That says it all. Nissan was failing bigly before Ghosn saved them. Never buying a Nissan again.

Japan government illegally detained him. Even a UN special investigator concluded Ghosn was arbitrarily detained. Japan has a 99.4% conviction rate. No honest judicial system has that. Japan government is corrupt.

Nissan and Japan also conspired to get one of the Board members, an American citizen, illegally detained and convicted on no evidence. Done with Japan and Nissan.

And France didn't support Ghosn, who turned around their ugly car Renault (would die if not subsidized by France) business because he "wasn't part of their global cabal i.e. WEF.

In the end, was that the way for a 64 yr old man to spend the rest of his days for saving at least two car companies? No.
