SpunkySelfTwitter It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.

Jenni Devyn Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.

Howard Johnson A documentary interviewing several scientists, politicians and others "in-the-know" regarding the end of oil's influence on our daily lives. The main gist of the presentation is common sense: the U.S. has been living high on the hog because of cheap oil. It's been known for a while that cheap oil will eventually end. That time has come.History is littered with great civilizations that eventually collapsed. Did you ever wonder if and why our civilization will follow? Watch this movie and learn your fate.This is a great, yet chilling documentary that everyone should watch. It is the ultimate thriller because it's not fiction. What's behind the next bend waiting to jump out at you? It's the scariest boogie monster of all: reality.

deandubach I awoke in the middle of the night after watching this movie, and couldn't fall back to sleep as I couldn't take quit thinking about the issues discussed.Never before have I been afraid that I am too young, and might live to experience the crisis outlined in this film.It almost makes "An Inconvenient Truth" seem like a Disney movie, as there are zero aspects of our life today that will be untouched by the impact of the disappearance of the worlds oil supply. This is as a must see film, that needs to have the same level of awareness and concern that has been generated by global warming. The impact to the world, and specifically our nation, appears worse than global warming as we will be challenged to transport food to segments of the population far away from rural farms. It seems that our total economy will revert to an agricultural base rather than industrial and technological.

ravis-3 This is a movie that people should be forced to see! It is an amazing display of the facts. These are real issues that everyone is going to have to deal with! The problems are not going to be solved by pointing fingers and expecting our governments to mitigate the problem, the problem lies within us as consumers! It is time that we look to our own lives and determine how we can live with far less than we currently do. The people that can grasp this concept will be far better off than those who are stuck in the past. Relocalization, reduction, more efficient use of energy and a serious reduction in consumption are great first starts. Thanks Basil for the great movie, I look forward to your next film!

msjohughes Having just got home from a HotDocs screening, I haven't had a whole lot of time to process all the information this doc throws at you, but my god was it interesting. I won't begin to tell you about the ideas, opinions, and facts that this film brings to the screen, because you should see it for yourself.My criticism of the film would be in its editing - some places seemed choppy, I'm certain a few of the interviewees were cut-off in the middle of their last word (in the edit, not by the interviewer) but this nitpicking is insignificant when you think about what these people are telling you.We need more people to see this documentary. But more than that: more people to start talking about the subject to which it is trying to alarm us, and beyond that, to actually take action. Immediately.
