Consumed

I enjoyed the actors and plot . In fact watched it twice over the last 2 months. I am concerned about gmo seeds, and have ready a lot of shady goings on with Monsanto. Seed police , suing farmers into bankruptcy, going after seed washers,lack of real long term studies (been lookin for them) etc, etc.

I see the blanket statements on ads saying " We use all natural healthy ingredients and gmo grown produce which has been found to be perfectly safe as though it were fact? Obama said 7 years ago all gmo would be labeled??

I honestly think it looks just like big tobacco....and later the sugar industry.

I liked the movie sugar coated too.

The movie had action,human interaction and suspense. It was done well, with smooth transitions scene to scene.

An overly dramatic but well-produced and well-acted thriller that lumps together in one narrative all the concerns, mostly legitimate, that many consumers have about GMOs. It is no wonder that a powerful, paternalistic industry that cloaks itself in secrecy would give rise to such paranoiac visions of our food system. The film touches all the emotional buttons involving the struggle of the powerless individual citizen against the all powerful mega-corporation: the single mother of a sick child, a poor organic farmer, the young idealistic immigrant post-doc; their stories interwoven along with bad guys to boot: the nasty corporate general counsel and GMO cops. While the movie is highly entertaining, I would recommend also seeing the documentaries "Genetic Roulette" and "GMO OMG," which are more informative about the issues. Nevertheless this is a good starting point for those not familiar with GMOs and trying to understand why so many people are against them. It does give an insight into the passions behind the anti-GMO movement, which is not going to go away anytime soon.

Am I surprised that this movie gets very negative reviews on here? To be honest, not really, as there are still a lot of very gullible people on this planet, especially in the United States. The USA is one of the countries with the most cases of cancer and is also the country where GMO's are just in about everything they eat, and eating they like over there. The story is clearly based on Monsanto, the most evil and tolerated company in the world. I liked the movie, not really an eye opener to me as I already live GMO free since decades (at least I hope). But for somebody ignorant to the matter it's an interesting story. Well acted by Zoe Lister-Jones who played the major character. Not much will ever change in this world as those companies are just too rich and governments too corrupt. The only solution is trying to avoid all that crap food. It reminds me of a video I watched and that you can easily find on the platforms where a presenter asked a representative of Monsanto if his product was safe. The defender of Monsanto replied you could easily drink a whole glass as it's absolutely safe, and the reporter then proposed him to drink a glass in front of everybody. You can guess what he did and answered. An absolute classic and epic video where they showed with what kind of lying rats we're dealing with here. Check it out and enjoy.

I'm not surprised in the least the Pro Monsanto trolls above who gave the film one star are spewing their propaganda because they don't want people to see this important film that tells the truth. Classic of them to try and make people not see the reality. This film is impressive. It is one of those stories you rarely get to see Hollywood make anymore because they are too busy making giant Superhero movies. This is a subtle and intriguing suspense thriller like those of old. The acting is amazing. This cast is killer. So fun to see Anthony Edwards and Kunal Nayyar act together. I have to say, I was surprised at every turn. Lots of twists and turns along the way. It's great storytelling. Looks STUNNING. Fantastic cinematography for an indie film with lots of beautiful locations. Most importantly, it's about something real. This affects me and my children and I give many thanks to this filmmaker for putting this amazing work out there.

This movie is comprised of extremely useful information. There are many excellent documentaries alike. People need to know what the industry is doing behind closed doors and this film opens the doors to what's really happening. I was elated to see that such a film was made and hope there are more to follow. As other have mentions, I see the one star reviewers. I wonder if they even watched the film. The biotech industry is so evil that it is not inconceivable that they would try to discredit this film. They either work for the industry and are afraid of the inconvenient truth. One reviewer wrote they had a problem coming up with ten lines. Why even leave a review? Moron. I hope this film has a sequel and I hope to see many more like it.
