Manger nous mènera à notre perte

This documentary starts out strong with a bold premise, supported by searing images, flashy data, great editing work, and the fascinating accent of A-lister Kate Winslet. I learn a few things, like how algae pills are a much more direct, cleaner source of Omega 3s than fish. However, at the end, it becomes preachy, devolving into another mediocre show callously imposing a plant-based diet. "Eating Our Way to Extinction" neglects exploring the reason why humans continue to have an appetite for meat flavor. The fact that it showcases consumers being amazed at how the "fake meat" tastes exactly like real meat only promotes the reality that people will continue to crave that meaty taste. Until you explore why, you cannot effectively and sincerely expect people to abruptly stop eating meat.

This is well worth watching. I just saw it in the cinema with my wife. This really opened my eyes to a lot of things I had heard about but had no idea just how much what I eat is effecting the world. The cinematography was amazing and there are a lot of very moving scenes weaved through the story.

It was great to see my childhood hero's Richard Branson and Tony Robbins sharing their take on the issue and Winslet's narration perfectly fit the story. We were on the edge of our seats most of the way though as every scene keeps you engaged right from the very start to the very finish.

The film got an ovation at the end, and quite rightly deserved. Will be recommending to friends and colleagues.

This is well-researched, clearly articulated, and quite frankly terrifying stuff. EATING OUR WAY TO EXTINCTION makes you want to slap people in the face with your knowledge.

Just watched this documentary, I found it wonderfully presented. Resonates with the truth scientist tell, but it's same truth that people have been telling to humans from past few decades. It's more about telling the truth what humans are doing to this planet, but I can understand it must be hard to accept for many people because it tries to wake humans up that they are doing something wrong to themselves and to the future of our planet. The majority of humans want to live in a fantasy world, and to hear beautiful words and praises for themselves even when they are doing the opposite. 6.6/10 is not a good enough rating for this amazing work, if the majority of people have eyes to see their wrongdoings and hear true words the world would be different, and we might not need to watch this documentary. This is must watch for one who is brave enough to accept his/her mistakes to correct them, not for fantasy lovers.

The problem with so many vegan documentaries is that they are so sensationalist and instead of having respected scientists they use "researchers" to carry the so-called vegan agenda. When you watch things like Seaspiracy or Cowspiracy - whilst well-meaning - they are full of hooded characters all dressed in black like animal rights protesters at an ANTIFA convention and push extreme science and and anecdotal stories which will NEVER appeal to the masses.

Whats unique and very refreshing about Eating Our Way To Extinction is that is has moved past all that, and somehow miraculously manages to gently but powerfully push forward the same message of changing your food away from animal products, without being all preachy and "holier-than-thou".

As someone who has recently tried to change my diet for environmental reasons and struggled to do so for a few years, I found this film to be that push that I finally needed. I hope a lot of people get to watch this as I feel that it will appeal to a lot of people, in a way that previous attempts have never been able to.
