Matrixston Wow! Such a good movie.

Dynamixor The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

AnhartLinkin This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

Portia Hilton Blistering performances.

kristianszalans-29553 Raises awareness, overall slightly lacks analytical perspective. There are only a few, but considerably weird bits with sexual jokes and some gender panic.

runamokprods The combination of a light touch and humor, real emotion (halfway into filming the on-screen narrator finds he is going to have a baby, so suddenly the issue involved gets much more personal), intelligent presentation of facts without screaming in your ear or overstatement, and the (sadly comic) attempts to be balanced and get the chemical industry to go on the record add up to a much more enjoyable and effective environmental documentary than most. This is the kind of film that makes you want to change your own habits, and believe you can make a difference, while never feeling like you're sitting through a 'this is good for you' lecture. It reminded me of Michael Moore's documentaries, in its playful tone about a serious issue, but this has a lighter, less sarcastic, more lovable hand. This would also be a terrific educational tool for 'tweens and teens (there's probably a bit too much slightly, good natured ribald humor for little kids, and some of the sad images of wildlife killed or injured by plastics might be a bit upsetting.Kudos to all involved for this timely and important work that will certainly effect my relationship to plastics in my world.

Owen Whittaker Has a lot of information that is at once provocative to even the dullest mind.There can be no doubting the importance of this kind of media coverage.Plastic bags = self destruction.The data and imagery, the accuracy, it is all blindingly serious.There is a slight absurdity about it all and this is well suited to the topic which is easily argued as the purest form of absurdity.There is none more insane then our destruction of what we have and are, self sabotage while ignorance is bliss.Its good that it has a global slant despite forcing the U.S condition.I recommend this movie for all people. Hippies and non hippies alike. It should be essential educational material.

whiteandblackcheckers This movie drastically changed my life. I was already a reusable bag-user, but it altered my perception on all of the other plastic things in our lives. It was shocking how much of the side effects/destruction plastic is doing we don't all know, and that's what really inspired me to make a change. Plastic is SO detrimental, I wish it just wasn't even invented. I recommend this film to all viewers.It's not just some hippie documentary, but for all people of all races, classes, age, sex, etc.
