Reg S I agree with another reviewer that this is a great movie artificially rated poorly because of Monsanto trolls. I was really enjoying it and decided to see what others thought and was shocked at the poor rating. You Americans in particular have a really bad problem with your elites worshipping money and not giving a rat about human beings. Covid and the Ukraine war are just more examples of the demonic greed of the 'elite' Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/24/23 Full Review Audience Member This is an important film and is getting bad reviews BECAUSE of paid MONSANTO TROLLS who don't want the general public to be informed that we as a society have allowed corporations to POISON us by giving corporations the right to own and control nature...think about how sick our population is since 1996...our government betrayed us all for GREED...getting big payouts and campaign donations to pass laws that harm the public and allow a private company to walk all over our civil liberties and constitutional rights...a company should not have power to mess with nature..so they can harness it and patent it...IT IS A CRIME AGAINST NATURE...AND WILL BE OUR CAUSE OF EXTINCTION...please ignore all bad press and reviews for this film...most bad reviews were done by MONSANTO'S people...we as a society need to demand we eradicate GMO foods from our world... They have no purpose but to make money for a corrupt CHEMICAL company...we need to burn all GM crops..and shut down all production...MONSANTO needs to be shutdown and bankrupt... Please I beg you to give this film a chance...you won't regret it... Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Alok R A must see. Educational. Well made. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/10/17 Full Review J F All the science of Jenny McCarthy's conclusions on vaccines. The problem with most scripts written by activists with a cause is the lack of story that usually comes with it. Take Erin Brockovich's story, replace PG&E with GMO, and voila, a script. An incredibly formulaic, predictable, condescending script, but a script. Get big name celebrities who care more about their activism and appearing for a cause rather than a good story, and we have Consumed. Maybe Zoe Lister-Jones is tired as being seen as a comedy actress, or is delusional enough to think the trainwreck of a script would get nominated for some awards. Either way, she should stick to saying words written by professional writers (or keep writing one-woman shows and short films nobody cares about) With a lot of TV shows so well-written, LA must have professional writers capable of telling a compelling story. Of course, a professional writer might deliver a good story, but the "science" would still be lacking. At least Jones is a talented actress so she doesn't need to write scripts to make a living. However, Daryl Wein appears to be a talentless hack, since he co-wrote and directed this garbage. With so many causes being in vogue I'm sure he'll probably always have actors falling over themselves to appear in an activist film. Whoever financed this sham of a movie should be more selective when funding films. A box office take of $20,000 doesn't seem like a very great investment. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 08/20/17 Full Review Audience Member If you believe this movie is scientifically based, you need to do your homework. There has never been any human side effects documented due to gmo. Humans have genetically modified food for thousands of years. Before current methods, radiation was used to develop a mutation. Current methods allow for specific gene changes, which is much more accurate. You can find any information online, including many falsified information. Please look on university websites and accredited scientific organizations (many false 'scientific' sites as well). I am a scientist with no affiliation to any private company or do I work with gmo products. I'm just tired of false reporting. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member It's along the lines of Silkwood and Erin Brokovich. Great movie Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Read all reviews
