Cubussoli Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
Redwarmin This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place
Jeanskynebu the audience applauded
Console best movie i've ever seen.
Richard Mazurek I enjoyed the actors and plot . In fact watched it twice over the last 2 months. I am concerned about gmo seeds, and have ready a lot of shady goings on with Monsanto. Seed police , suing farmers into bankruptcy, going after seed washers,lack of real long term studies (been lookin for them) etc, etc.I see the blanket statements on ads saying " We use all natural healthy ingredients and gmo grown produce which has been found to be perfectly safe as though it were fact? Obama said 7 years ago all gmo would be labeled??I honestly think it looks just like big tobacco....and later the sugar industry.I liked the movie sugar coated too.The movie had action,human interaction and suspense. It was done well, with smooth transitions scene to scene.
mcleodjack Reviewer discripplemation, who gave it a bad review, says it's full of misinformation and outright lies; however, discripplemation fails to support the allegations with any examples.Interesting note: discripplemation has only been an IMDb member for 3 weeks and this is his or her ONLY review.Reviewer Windsun33 has given negative reviews to all the other documentaries that expose food and water corruption such as "GMO OMG," "TAPPED," and "Seeds of Death" while most everyone else has given good ratings to these documentaries.Reviewer ted_corning gives it a bad review and even uses an old trick wherein he preempts criticism by saying those that don't support GMOs will call the pro-GMO people shills as if that is supposed to make him credible for pointing that out. Well if the shoe fits...Interesting note: ted_corning has only been a member of IMDb for 3 weeks and has no other reviews.Another reviewer, kelsokristen, has been an IMDb member of just 1 month and 3 weeks AND has no other reviews.Does anyone see a pattern here? Yeah, I thought so. It's so damn obvious.Anyway, enjoy the movie. It's pretty good considering the budget the producers had to work with.And to answer the stupid question, "Why would talented A-list actors attach themselves to this movie," it is because they understand the dangers of GMOs and want to lend their support to the movement. DUH.Why does every other advanced country in the world ban or label GMOs if they're not a problem?
burtrobin Great movie. The rating is an indication of how naive and gullible the general population is about GMOs.Why do someone find it hard to believe that playing with genes and consuming that wouldn't affect their body? I have worked with GMOs and can say that the portrayal in the movie is very close to reality. Amazing movie and everyone must see it. This must be made compulsory in all schools. The plot revolves around a very plausible mother who tries to find the cause of her son's disease. It also includes the lies spread by GMO giants in exploiting Asia.Acting could have been better,but it is compensated by the depth of movie, questions it raises and truth it brings to main stream media.
catchahealthyhabit The first non documentary that tackles the hot topic of GMO's. The film does a very good job of setting the viewer up who knows little about GMO coming in. I thought the films asked the question "why are there no labels on food that contain gmo's". Simple question that many countries do not have because they label. With Vermont's law taken effect on July 1st it appears that companies are crumbling to the pressure and gmo labels will appear throughout the 50 States. Consumed tells many other stories within the movie, that help explain why GMO's are being thrust upon the American consumer with little science to back up their role. This movie really showed the under belly of how these companies operate to hold down the truth. Connecticut and many other states have labeling laws in effect and this film will help the rest of the population understand why labeling is so important.
