Very well executed
... View MoreThis movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows
... View MoreNot sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.
... View MoreIt's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.
... View MoreTake one part condescending Hollywood liberal d==chebag. Who is somehow surprised California is suffering from a drought !! Mix one part condescending New York Times liberal d==chebag. Who never met a redistribution scheme he didn't like. Talk to some American farmers growing things we have no business growing (eg. almonds in the desert). Talk to some African nomads who are more interested in waging war on one another than actively working toward making better lives for themselves. Add some bleak photography. Layer on some scary talk about ''national security.'' Blame Western civilization for polluting the globe. Overlook how our exploitation of resources has led to the highest standard of living in Earth's history. Completely ignore how China's pollution makes us look like a continent full of Amish. Bake at 350 degrees for an hour. Ya got yourselves a Western Guilt series. Anyone who wants to see bleak photos mixed with honest, non-alarmist reporting check out Slate.com's series on the California drought from, if I recall, 2015. Surprisingly balanced and informative journalism for a left-wing propaganda rag.
... View MoreAs someone who already understands the basics of climate change, I find little to learn from this show. It's basically celebrities asking very naive questions, softballs to get an easily impactful line. Cheadle, Ford, and Friedman are boring and humorless. The camera pans to closeups of handshakes and guns, trying a little too hard to create an atmosphere of foreboding. The typical Gore-bashing argument of flying in private jets etc. does seem especially on display here, although somebody has to fly around doing some journalism if messages are to be spread. The actual content of the show is educational. If you don't know anything about climate change and respect actors, you can get something out of this.
... View Morei really loved the show. it brings out the true scale of catastrophic natural disasters that are bound to happen if we keep on exploiting our mother earth the same way we are doing it. Also the urge to educate our political leaders to take necessary actions in-order to preserve whatever resources we have and use it wisely and start working towards a sustainable future keeping aside dirty politics also as they are ignorant about climate change and in the name of development allows top corporate companies to exploit the planet resources which is acting as a catalyst in the process of climate degradation. Global Warming is a true man made phenomenon and not something created by some supernatural entity and needs to be brought under control. I really hope everyone watches it and do their part to preserve the only planet we call HOME.
... View MoreThis series of films explore many different stories around climate change in order to illuminate some of what is happening locally in our world.Unfortunately there are not more documentaries on TV of this quality and prescience. It's extremely well written, produced and researched.Why do some people rate this so badly? I can only guess that they are either extremely closed minded to the world we live in or they are lying selfishly for their own interests.If you are skeptical then watch it and make your own mind up, otherwise you remain ignorant of the most important issue humanity has ever faced.
