This documentary neither tell audience nor imply that China has successfully "Risen" already, thus has the ability to kick ass.
Instead, the authors try to make people think, what is the best way for China to "Rise", what are those lessons that China could learn from the history. The authors DO say explicitly at the end that "Rising" by war and aggression is doomed to fail.
At least for me, I don't see that audience could conclude "now it is our time to "rise" and kick out those former global powers".
