Ensofter Overrated and overhyped

Noutions Good movie, but best of all time? Hardly . . .

MoPoshy Absolutely brilliant

ThedevilChoose When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

jayjun1992 With the huge trend of "going green" among individual members of the entertainment industry and in Hollywood, Miranda Bailey goes one step further in trying to apply this environmentally- friendly mentality to a film production. Though the steps to accomplishing a green film seem feasible, actually imposing them turn out to be more difficult than expected. In the hectic fast-paced environment of on-set production, the crew seemed frustrated to take the conservational measures agreed upon. They saw them more as a hindrance than a help, which shows how most people think about taking these steps. However, the fact that the crew did make more of an effort and did decrease their environmental waste was inspiring and encouraging. After seeing this movie, you will be convinced that being a little more attentive and making little changes in everyday habits will end up making a difference.

Rodney Thompson (RodThompsonJr) GreenLit turns the camera on the film industry to shed some light on the problems with productions trying to stay as environmentally friendly as possible. Following film producer Miranda Bailey, this documentary visits the set of The River Why, as it attempts to film in an ecologically responsible way. Employing the help of environmental impact consultants, the cast and crew struggle to adhere to the policies set in place in order to be "green." Miranda's willingness to learn and explore the avenues that a production company can utilize to reduce their impact on the environment is noteworthy. However, the overall sense of the crew seems to be that the "green" policies are more inconvenient than helpful.The documentary turns to the waste management companies to get an inside look at the way our garbage is handled once it leaves our homes. Providing varying viewpoints throughout the film, we get a fairly wide representation of peoples' concerns about recycling.Surprisingly, the results of the "green" efforts on set turn out to be rather impressive, as the final data is presented. The film highlights the exuberant and sometimes illogical waste in the industry, while also showing room for everyone to learn more about what they can do to make changes. Overall, the message is clear. We can do better. We just need to start by making the small changes until we come to a point where we practice these habits naturally. GreenLit provides great examples, not only for filmmakers, but everyone to be more responsible with our environment.

rod674 Very funny, original look at a topic that should be at the forefront of the green movement. As one of the largest producers of pollution in the environment, the film and TV industry has an obligation to open the doors to the production process and what effect it has on the environment. 'Greenlit' does just that, allowing the viewer to see the waste that results from a feature film's production (as well as the drama associated with trying to reduce that waste). This isn't the snooze fest that is An Inconvenient Truth. Rather, the problems associated with film production pollution are presented in a humorous yet educational manner. I didn't feel like I was learning something so much as I felt like I was taking in an entertaining movie

Annie Hirschmann The film Greenlit illustrates very well how hard it is to be green on set. I find it very interesting that the film itself is not green, probably because they had a limited budget. Greenlit uses facts, interviews and B-Roll to drive home its main ideas. I thought the documentary did a very good job of showing both sides of the argument. The film also does an outstanding job of showing just how hard and expensive it is to make a smaller budget movie green. The movie follows it's director and star Miranda Bailey through the process of producing an independent feature as well as trying to make it green. Miranda is very likable and I enjoyed watching her go through the process. I could totally relate to her because she was learning as she went along. Miranda is obviously passionate about making the movie industry greener. All in all I learned a lot from this documentary and would recommend it highly to anyone that I know.
