    Nothing like what the pro GMO people are saying. Its a good film.

    I wanted to say hey this is actually a good film and it is actually researched. I wanted to see for myself so I went onto pub-med and actually found a whole bunch of studies linking GMOs and Monsanto roundup to autistic behavior, all kinds of allergies and yes even cancer. There are many reputable scientists who are genuinely concerned about the use of modified crops that can handle large amounts of pesticides that end up in the food in bigger numbers than ever before. You are what you eat, and the more we allow pesticides and chemicals like roundup that has been clinically proved to disrupt enzymes and proteins and cause cellular mutations then the worse off we are. There is good hard science backing the stories in this film yet many average people simply don't know this because the corporately owned media does its best to paint GMOs in a positive light. Go on pub-med and search yourself! Itys a shame this film is getting such bad ratings because of "damage control" from fake profiles and just plain old ignorant public who simply have no clue how GMOs are even created and why the science still has a long way to go before its safe. We are creating new toxic proteins and stuff that our bodies don't like or want. You can prove this to yourself, buy some food that you know is GMO, and buy the same kind of food that is organic and then try and feed both to your dog or cat (something they like obviously) and you'll notice that the animals somehow know what is GMO and what is not, they instinctively ALWAYS go for the natural non GMO and leave the GMO product in the bowl. This had been proved also with mice. When mice invade a farm shed they always leave the GMO seeds, wont eat them but they eat everything else. Why? because nature knows best. Also when you feed GMO food to animals they develop much higher cases of abnormalities, swollen glands and have higher cancer rates. This is a scientific fact here. Im not making anything up because I don't need to. Its just that the average public have no idea of these facts because these facts you have to dig deep for because no one in the corporate media will write articles about this. In fact they are paid my agricultural companies to write positive spin about GMOS. This is how it actually is. This is a really important film and if you google it you'll also find out these A list actors also agree about the dangers of GMOs and the feel passionately about it, because they are informed.

    GMO's? No thank you, not for me. But be my guest...

    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.

    DECEPTION must be EXPOSED

    Great to see there are actually SOME movies that reveal the underhanded operations of the evil who are in control. What SHOULD be exposed is that the public are being given vaccines that have not been evaluated for carcinogenic, mutagenic or impairment of fertility, it is stated in all the vaccine inserts in section 13, but NO-ONE says anything about that. Makes one think WHERE autism comes from.

    Excellent film

    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.

    Worthwhile entertainment and may learn something about the public concern about GMOs

    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.

    • Trivia
      Many of the scenes were shot in the Natural History Building on the University of Illinois campus. The building was available as it had recently been deemed structurally unsound (and would later undergo an eighty-three million dollar renovation). The metal pillars in the hallways were actual support beams. The lab in which Kunal Nayyar and Anthony Edwards worked, was an evacuated honors class lab for Integrative Biology students.
