John Leonard: Hand to hold
“In the cellars of the night, when the mind starts moving around old trunks of bad times, the pain of this and the shame of that, the memory of a small boldness is a hand to hold.”

Pepsi, Where’s My Jet? (prod. Vivian Johnson).
Netflix continues the unfortunate trend of stretching its perfectly suitable documentary subjects into multi-episode series instead of the usual light and brisk feature-length running time for no good reason. Here, the producers exhaustively revisit the famous “Pepsi Points” ad campaign turned scandal during the mid-‘90s height of the cola wars and its ensuing court battle after a misleading commercial inspired one enterprising Seattle college student, John Leonard, to challenge the corporation and try to redeem a promised Harrier Jet.
There are plenty of colourful characters and the breezy insights into corporate business tactics, advertising culture, and legal maneuvering all make for a fun topic, but the insubstantial material hardly justifies all the hoopla involved in unfolding over four episodes.
