| Professional Reviews | (05/26/2009, Pete Hammond): 5 stars out of 5 -- "It's a sobering and worthwhile look at an important subject many have not even thought about....FOOD, INC.'s end credit sequence offers numerous ways the consumer can and should make a difference.", (06/01/2009, Nicolas Rapold): "[T]he superb FOOD, INC. offers an elegantly constructed and absorbing analysis of the monolithic U.S. food industry.", (06/11/2009, Nathan Rabin): "Kenner takes audiences deep into the ugly underbelly of American food production....Its heroes are realists who've found a way to be relatively humane within the system...", (06/12/2009, Gary Goldstein): "[A] smart, expertly shot documentary....[The film] gives an eloquent array of writers, activists and farmers time to enlighten us about the perils on our plates, but now without offering hope for a safer future.", (06/12/2009, Kirk Honeycutt): "Kenner takes you through these unsettling stories through a mix of articulate talking heads, cameras peering where Food Inc. doesn't want scrutiny, citizens lobbying their representatives in Congress and entertaining graphics and animation.", (06/12/2009, Manohla Dargis): "[A]n informative, often infuriating activist documentary....You'll shudder, shake and just possibly lose your genetically modified lunch.", (06/25/2009, Peter Travers): 3.5 stars out of 4 -- "Kenner keeps his film bouncing with humor, music and graphics....The message he's delivered with the help of nutrition activists, including Eric Schlosser and Michael Pollan is an eye-opener.", (12/25/2009, Owen Gleiberman): Included in Entertainment Weekly's "The Best Films Of The Year" -- "[A] brilliant documentary about what we think we eat, and about what that food really is." | |
