Rijndri Load of rubbish!!
Grimossfer Clever and entertaining enough to recommend even to members of the 1%
Tyreece Hulme One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.
Beulah Bram A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.
ts_kirkpatrick-157-307225 People credit this movie as the reason they turned vegan. Not a lot of evidence and hardfacts here. Just someone pushing their propaganda without backing it up with science.They don't really show any credible evidence to support their claims and chuck out numbers that are pretty meaningless without the correct context and explanation. Just because it's on Netglux doesn't mean it's any good
emilr-76478 This movie is really depressing, but also realistic. It shows us what is happening with the worlds climate, and it shows that we need to do something now, if we wants the world to change. I think its great that this documentary, shows us what is happening to the world, but i also think that the movie is long-drawn-out, and maybe they could have made it more interesting.
benjaminburt I had an experience kind of similar to the filmmaker's: I had been told that at home, I have to be more environmentally minded - turn up the thermostat in the summer, down in the winter, take shorter showers, turn lights off whenever I can, etc. I discovered recently that animal agriculture was significantly destructive on the environment, and I wanted to find out more, so I watched this documentary. To be honest, I was a little disappointed in it.Maybe it wasn't meant specifically for me. Maybe it was meant for people who had never considered that animal agriculture was environmentally destructive. But, for someone who already agreed with the notion, it felt like much of the film was devoted to establishing the facts and knocking down people (such as organic farmers, no-meat Mondays) who were 'patting themselves on the back'. Only in the very last portion did the filmmaker indicate what can be done to fix the problem (i.e. vegan-ism). What I was hoping for was a more in-depth look at evaluation of each meat. Okay, obviously beef is the most destructive. If we cut beef would we be okay? How do pork and lamb and poultry compare? If natural fisheries are unsustainable, how about changing the water resources we use on livestock farming and do fish farming instead? Of course it would be ideal for the whole world to turn vegan overnight, but the simple fact is that solutions demand compromise.As it is, I appreciated the film. I thought it was well-made, and captured a very kairotic topic that not enough people are talking about. I think the filmmaker failed to establish proof of a 'cowspiracy,' considering the notion of livestock farming be environmentally dangerous is simply not obvious, so it hasn't been as explored. He failed to establish that this is something that is being hush-hushed or covered up. I think it's just not being talked about enough because it's not as obvious.I would recommend this film to most anyone, because it could give you valuable insight to an important topic that isn't discussed enough. However, I can't promise you that it's compelling enough to definitely change your life. Some people will watch this and maybe think twice before buying meat at the grocery store, but still buy it anyway.
corlealeo I feel as if I've become enlightened and can now see behind the propaganda of the meat and dairy industries. This documentary has changed my life. My husband and I became vegan that night. Excellent job of revealing the facts. I don't know how anyone could continue to eat meat, fish and dairy after seeing the facts. Everyone should watch this film.
