StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

Catangro After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.

AshUnow This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Mathilde the Guild Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

jtramire Food, Inc. is something all people who eat should watch, because not many know the truth about food. Most food production is controlled by mega-businesses or monopolies who terribly regulate everything that goes into making food. Most of these dirty deeds are attempted to be kept secret and covered up by the companies, but Food, Inc. does a great job of unveiling these secrets. This was a real eye opener to see the cruel ways they treat animals, all the chemicals plants and animals are exposed to, and how unnaturally these foods are produced.The way farmers treat the animals is uncalled for and inhumane. For example, most animals are crammed together in a small area, and fed with unhealthy corn based food, steroids and antibiotics. These animals are deformed and standing in their own waste, then are brutally killed. A "good farmer" that is shown in the documentary kills his chickens out in the open which makes them more likely to be healthy and tasty. Animals who live like they would naturally are healthier than the animals that become food for these mega-businesses. These companies treat their farms like factories even though they are working with living things. Treating them that poorly makes them less healthy and worse for the consumers of the food they make.Also it addresses genetically modified seeds and how it effects crops. They also cross into properties that don't want them and can ruin their crops. There are examples shown in the film of people and their families being affected by all the negative effects of the food industry. Most everyday people shop at normal stores such as Walmart and get the food provided by the huge corporations, because they are cheaper and easier to get. Most people don't have the money or access to small farmers markets that do things the right way and grow food and livestock naturally.This film is a documentary meant to educate viewers on the crooked regulation of monopolies and hopefully convert people to organic food. It is very informational and gives great insight into this industry that is so secretive of their methods and production. I can't see someone watching this film and not rethinking the food they eat and consider making a change. Hopefully more people can become educated on this topic and the monopolies can be exposed and we can go back to organic methods.

btudisca I had to write an essay on local and organic food. As a starting point I watched this movie because it seemed to be very close to my topic. I am rating this movie an 8/10 because it is actually very eye-opening. While it may be a very biased review on the Meat packing industry because Michael Pollan is an all natural food activist, it does its job, and does it well. There are things about this movie that if you think about it, you know it is truthful. The meat packing industry does play a HUGE role in our world. The representatives from these companies are also ones that are wholly in charge in DC. They don't want the secrets of the meat industry getting out, which is why there is such little knowledge on the entire process. People know that animals are mistreated and that there are huge flaws, but by watching this film you really learn a lot about them. It is a very graphic documentary at some points, so viewer discretion is definitely recommended. All aside, this is an excellent documentary and is actually helping me to change my eating habits. Not going completely vegetarian, but eating more locally produced options, from places that I know and that I know i can trust with treating animals justly, and not using harmful chemicals.

alexandraroxane the current method of raw food productions is largely a response to the growth of the fast food industry since long time ago. The production of foods overall has more drastically changed since that time than the several thousand year prior.This movie show us the process of health and safety of the animals producing themselves, of the workers on the assembly lines,and of the consumers actually eating the food are often overlooked by government in an effort to provide cheap food regardless of these negative consequences.Many of the changes are based o advancements in science and technology, but often have negative sides effects.The vie has many fact on our life because it gave many opportunity to see how the food that we eat has been cook and made.

habib-tamu This movie really exposed the truth about the food industry. It i a movie really "slept" on by the public and i advise people should watch it. ay well be the most important, perspective-altering documentary you'll ever digest. Informed by author/activists Eric Schlosser (Fast Food Nation) and Michael Pollan (The Omnivore's Dilemma), documentarian Robert Kenner exposes the evolution of food production from the venerable family farm to rapacious big agri-business. ay well be the most important, perspective-altering documentary you'll ever digest.
