Recensioni di Metacritic

Fast-paced, entertaining and informative.

Many of Gameau's findings won't come as earth-shattering revelations, but he takes a resourceful approach to presenting the material, coating all the inconvenient truths in kid-friendly, brightly colored graphics and zippy animations.

It’s a glib yet informative and sometimes entertaining re-hashing of everything we know about how bad sugar is for us.

Although Gameau’s film includes a fair amount of science, he and his helpers sweeten the film’s statistics, delivering them in clever, accessible ways.

Gameau clearly has good intentions, and generally succeeds in sweetening a potentially bitter subject for easy public consumption.

The science is haphazard, the techniques gimmicky, but the point is cogently made.

A film that doesn’t quite blow the lid off the sugar bowl, but ought to keep pop-science fans sweet.

That Sugar Film suffers from some of the usual stunt-doc laziness.... But Gameau builds his case well.

Garneau with his Smeg fridge and smug affect grows more irksome over the course. Moreover, engagement with issues around poverty, capitalism and public policy kicks in a bit too late.

One senses that all of these kinds of documentaires are finally aggrandizing shrines made by artists trying to erect something out of nothing.
