In general I support a lot of the "emotional tone" of this movie. I do think in many cases the medical industry has turned into the sickness industry. For an example of that you can watch a movie called the "Widowmaker" about a man who developed a scan to determine if you have cardiac disease risk and it was ignored.
A lot of stuff that is cheap and effective, such as diet, is being ignored so we can keep playing this food drug pusher game with people and making them sick.
There is that going on in the world, and in our country.
But, you have to go at something like that very carefully and factually. Right away in this movie the woman Charlotte Gerson talked about there being 52 nutrients that plants need to survive. Well, science only knows about 18 of them. I listed them, they are well known, and it is not mystery how they were found.
She did not mention any of the elements outside of the 18, but insinuated that lack of these nutrients causes cancer and disease.
That is when I turned the movie off. When a writer or director does not vet their guests or their facts, and decides to go with statements made in this movie without qualifying them or explaining them, I think that is disinformation and manipulation.
There is a lot of that in the nutrition industry. There are people that tell you that any and everything can cure cancer, or cause cancer.
I gave this movie a 2 because it is not super-terrible or unwatchable, but it is dishonest in my opinion and did not check or explain its facts. Skip it and watch other movies, but more importantly, keep you thinking cap on, and anything that sounds fishy, look up and try to find out more about. Don't believe anything based on authority.
