Overrated

i must have seen a different film!!

It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

Obviously, this documentary uses emotions and children too much, and therefore it is not a masterpiece. But still, I must laugh over these super negative and personal reviews here. Are these people paid by Monsanto etc., or brainwashed by these companies already?Monsanto, as any other corporate company, do not care about people, environment or the future of humans and nature. We have created the system when companies care only, but only, about own profit and never-ending profit growth for its shareholders. GMO itself does not have to be bad, but our capitalism without regulations and limits allows to exploit it in the worst possible way, killing nature and even people. Ask about BT cotton in underdeveloped countries as well, pretty interesting things are happening there!

A very interesting and well done inquiry into GMO'S. I enjoyed this documentary and found it certainly opened up my mind to new perspectives, but it lacked (though it admitted to this) a wide variety of facts. I also found that it could have benefited from more testimonies from companies (such as Monsanto) themselves, and the videos and recordings showing him being turned away weren't quite enough for me. I think the documentary producers could have used different tactics (ie. specify they were there for a documentary??) rather than just showing up outside the door and asking questions. A good place to get ideas, though further research from this place is undoubtedly necessary.

I had no idea why GMO was a big fuss until I watched this documentary. It clearly explained what a GMO is, how it was introduced,the history, and the problems we face today with the farmers and Monsanto specifically. The narrator interviewed both sides so that you could hear the other side's argument. It is a bit one sided, but the narrator wants to make a point. The experts at Monsanto refused any interviews. The interviews he did with his kids were not to be taken seriously. They were to show what children think of GMO and their understanding. It upsets me that organic farmers have been forced to buy Monsanto's seeds because Monsanto threatened to sue them. The overall movie was very informational, and I recommend watching it before judging.

First off, I think the whole GMO 'debate'has been over-simplified. The prominent issue many of us have with GMOs is with seeds that are being modified in order to be bombarded with poison(s). The argument that this will feed all the worlds starving population is simply ludicrous and short sighted. This 'food shortage' other reviewers speak of is a fallacy, we have a MASSIVE ALLOCATION problem one in which all the roundup they make will not solve, ever. To say that that GMO will fix this is ridiculous, open your eyes and realize everything is about profits. Feeding starving people is not profitable, period. Feeding the insane amounts of cattle in North America (where BTW all that GMO corn goes to) well now that is. So next time one wants to argue that roundup ready seeds will feed the world, stop and do a bit of research, you will find out where all that corn and grain is actually going.I promise you that it is not going to feed the starving population that you speak of. As many people have stated, GMOs have been around forever...so if this is the solution to end world hunger then why are so many people still going hungry? We make more than enough food to feed everyone and this is a fact. Soon this will no longer be the case though, if we continue on this path our bee populations will continue to dwindle and no one will be able to grow anything. The fact that even Pixar and children know this and naysayers don't, would be funny if it wasn't so tragic. There simply is not enough room on here to address the issues but if you want to believe that roundup ready is nutritious and healthy, I feel sorry for you and your ignorance. I feel for our planet and all the destruction that these chemicals cause. Hopefully my younger generation (who sees things VERY differently than the boomers)will be able to affect change...one has to hope.Even your own president would rather eat organic produce, how that doesn't say something to you is beyond belief.
