Dominion

This movie is very hard to watch for any conscious human being. For the first time in my life I wish a movie would not exist, not because it is bad but because it shows evil. Evil from humanity that tries to act with moral values but somehow accepts this.

I can't picture myself eating animal products again after watching this. Certain pictures just wont disappear and I don't even want to talk about them.

I went to see the film in a free event in my local city without knowing what it was about, the movie started and only ten minutes after I saw it my only impulse was to run away and forget what my eyes saw. I was with my girlfriend and she who is a vegetarian helped me to stay and see her completely. I have always thought that this type of vegan movements etc have some kind of fanaticism, but after seeing those images I can not simply deny reality, we live in a society that not only ignores but denies and rationalizes this horror story of which we are all participate I can not find any difference between what we are currently doing to the animals, with any nationalist or slavery regime of the past. I deeply thank those who were part of this film, although it has very strong images, unfortunately it is the only way we can get out of this ignorance in which we live and start to change.

'DOMINION': Five Stars (Out of Five)

The new Animal Rights documentary exposing the horrific truths of the animal agriculture industry. It was written and directed by Chris Delforce, who also performed both duties on the 2014 critically acclaimed Australian pig farming documentary 'LUCENT'. The movie is narrated by Joaquin Phoenix (who also famously narrated the 2005 Animal Rights documentary classic 'EARTHLINGS'), Rooney Mara, Sia, Sadie Sink, Katherine von Drachenberg and Delforce himself. I think the film is an absolute masterpiece, that needs to be seen by all!

Delforce and his crew use drones, and handheld cameras (including many hidden ones) to capture the horrors of the modern animal agriculture industry. He explores how different animals are used for food, entertainment, research and clothing, while also posing questions of the morality of using animals in these ways. The film also details how many different types of animals are abused in their own different unique ways, while Phoenix and others narrate this information. The title of course comes from humankind's belief that we have dominion over non-human animals.

The movie is extremely comprehensive and educational. For those who know very little about animal agriculture, this film should blow them away. I'd say it's even more thorough, in it's detailed information, than 'EARTHLINGS'. I don't think it's quite as classic as that all-time masterpiece though (in my opinion). It is just as hard to watch though, and emotionally shocking, so of course it'll be really hard to get non-vegans to watch it too. If they can be talked into it though, I think this movie could be groundbreaking in that movement. It's arguably one of the most important films ever made (in my opinion at least).

I've seen a lot of horrible footage like these that we can see in this documentary before, but these are beyond imagination and it's an unbelievable compilation of human immorality and cruelty towards animals, itself, nature and earth.

It's a documentary that you can't watch easily, I almost not watched all of its scenes in detail. I just can't.

It's a wonder how we, as human beings can do such things on a global scale.

I always feel proud because I've decided to become a vegan years ago and now, I feel better than ever and I will not look back for even a second, but knowing that all the animals are still being exploited by human beings, is just disgusting and hard to take.

I hope everyone would change their mind about speciesism, animal cruelty and diet.

8.5/10.

This documentary will open your eyes to the truth about the 'food' you choose to eat. It explodes the myth of 'humane slaughter', show the reality of 'free range' and every day farm practices and animal agriculture in Australia, but common around the world, as well as some other practices that occur in other countries to bring us in the West, our 'creature comforts' like down pillows and fur coats.

The undercover footage that was bravely obtained by activists and painstakingly put together for this film, along with the drone footage, has some of the most moving and powerful scenes portraying the suffering and horror that is the life and death of farmed animals.

Especially if you still consume animal products, have the courage to watch this film and see if your choice to do so really stacks up as a good reason to do something that requires so much suffering, and creates so much waste, greenhouse gases and poor human health outcomes.
