Thrive: What on Earth Will It Take?

Foster Gamble presents this documentary, directed by his wife. He comes from that ruling elite in America that he suggests is behind the most extraordinary coup carried out in history. Power has gradually been usurped, he suggests, and those who truly influence our lives have become virtually unaccountable. The political faces we see about us are just the tip of an iceberg that has truly murky depths.

His premise will be very uncomfortable indeed for those who do not have an inkling about the way in which false flag operations have been used to justify the wars that have drained ordinary citizens of money in Europe and the USA and made certain small parts of society, that control armaments and oil, immensely wealthy.

He interviews those who are in a position to know what is going on with regard to power, the military and also the question of free energy and extra-terrestrial involvement. It is not surprising that this film attracts criticism, as it will have many elements that stretch belief; on his web site he gives links that provide much credence to all the key points he makes.

The film is presented very cleverly seeming to take the viewer off planet to get an overview of earth and its inhabitants. A film like this could just be depressing as it is suggesting that shadowy powers have tried, and nearly succeeded in stripping fundamental freedoms away in the Western World, and in particular in the US where many are sleep walking into a legal framework where they have little if any recourse to justice and real freedom at all.

This hidden coup has been accomplished by the expert deployment of technologies of mind control initially developed in the Nazi era and exported to the USA through the infamous Operation Paperclip.

So is it another of those documentaries that suggest The End is Nigh? In a way, but it is not at all without hope and points to the very many areas where extraordinary developments are taking place. It is easy to watch this documentary and recommend it to your friends. It may not be comfortable viewing but the very fact someone has bothered to make it, and make it quite so well, is encouraging. We do indeed live in interesting times.

Mostly conspiracy theory, very little on thriving. Seems to lead down many paths, but no solid conclusions. Left religion out of world view discussion entirely.

Seems like an infomercial to lead you to their 'cause' or web site.

Parts seem professional, others seem amateurish. Gamble gives some personal background, pictures of college activities, then jumps forward 40 years. Like a New Age lecture dressed in semi-scientific mumbo jumbo. Repeatedly mentions family names of world conspirators, like beating a dead horse.

Several 'suppressed' energy devices are shown, mostly past-tense. No mention is made of present advances in Free Energy like Steorn's Orbo, Rossi's eCat, or Joule's 'Liquid Fuel from the Sun' which is already commercially viable. Instead, it shows conventional, capital intensive, low efficiency energy capture systems: solar cells and windmills, which are institutionalized by corporations like GE from which Gamble is divorcing himself.

All in all, not rewarding, like a teaspoon of Thrive in a Gallon of Conspiracy.

I'm going to start off by saying that the intentions of this film were definitely good, but I can not take this as an authentic documentary. I remember watching the first thirty minutes and being impressed at how it was a truly authentic and relevant film. Then they started talking about how crop circles were created by aliens and this lost most of its credibility. It's more or less obvious this film is promoting conspiracy theories. They may not use that exact term, but they do mention conspiracies at one point. The best parts are probably the beginning and the end as we get a good introduction and conclusion, respectively obviously.

The one thing that really dragged this film down was how prominent David Icke was featured. I've heard of him, but I believe this is the first time I ever saw what he looked like. He is probably the biggest promoter of the lizard people or reptilian conspiracy, which asserts that many famous people like the President of the United States and the Queen of England are giant lizards in disguise. At least he doesn't mention tin foil hats. I simply can not take anyone seriously with a belief this ridiculous. It's absurd even by the standards of OTHER conspiracy theories. There's also a part where they talk about the corruptness of the pharmaceutical industry, especially with how they want us to take more medication. I firmly believe that medication is good, as it is something that has been duplicated in laboratory conditions, which is enough evidence for me. It's obviously ahead of alternative medicine which has been endorsed by Deepak Chopra, who appears in this film as well.

I was really hoping that they wouldn't mention those stupid 911 conspiracy theories. They did, but I guess they didn't really agree with them. They just said more and more people believed them and they were at least open to the idea. This is a truly irrational belief that has no place in society at all. With all that being said, I do appreciate how they advocate for peace here. They talk about how the wealth is very unevenly distributed, which we can all agree on. It's nice that they say we should simply stop spending all our money on weapons and just use it to feed people.

Of course, Bill Hicks said it better. The people here seem nice enough and their hearts are in the right place. I guess you could say their minds aren't. I will always promote the creation of jobs and equal distribution. We really do have to stop believing in conspiracy theories. I would have loved to have seen James Randi in this. He's probably debunked this movie. **1/2

When watching a movie like Thrive, listen to your heart.

Don't waste your time reading so called "reviews" on IMDb, youtube, etc.

They are all FULL of Trolls.

Fake users with fake accounts who write negative reviews to "make" people believe what they want.

There are many people out there who does NOT want you to succeed.

Why? So they can stay on top.

It's not a damn conspiracy, it's survival of the fittest.

The dumber you are the smarter they are, the more for them and the less for you.

But hey, don't take my word for it.

Watch the film and open your mind.

Listen within You and Only You.

You will know the Truth.
