Watch Hungry for Change For Free

I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

The fundamental basis of this film was to attack the food industry, and while there's plenty of things that were accurate in how the industry conducts itself, it went off the rails far too many times to be worthy of watching. A lot of the things they tried to push were based on flawed science of no science at all, as if the need to attack the food outweighed the need for accuracy, which is bad for a documentary.One standout point for me was on the subject of MSG. They spoke about how it increased obesity, pointing out how it increased obesity in mice. However if you look at the research they themselves point you to, they injected - not fed - mice with so much MSG it would be the equivalent of injecting a 140lb human with a minimum 44 teaspoons of pure MSG. Hardly a balanced comparison.I think it had a good intention, but the way it was approached was far to opinionated, and unfortunately I think that will come across to many viewers and put them off of the good points made.

The movie is not to be taken as gospel. It offers solid and highly beneficial advice to altering a processed lifestyle in a manor you see fit by offering a variety of different options. You will either both benefit from good advice and utilize a new method(s) to improve your nutrition intake, or not. You will either be informed on information you knew not before (which can be followed by proper research), or not.Shout-out to the other reviewer that caught the whole "glutamine being the "G" in ATCG" incorrect comment from someone blasting the film. Respect. If you have criticisms, I suggest doing plenty of research, not wikipediaing the information presented. Nutrition is a highly person-specific science and what works for some may not for others. You should gather ideas, test them, include the ones that make you feel better, healthier etc and don't follow the ones that don't work for you.

I don't understand why some people here keep on saying another infomercial. Really? You did not get the point at all? Just because the people in this documentary are authors selling books about health doesn't mean they are promoting their products. Where in the film did they promote it because I want to see.The message is CRYSTAL-CLEAR. CHOOSE A HEALTHY LIFESTYLE. It's sad that some people fail to see it instead writing a negative review that this documentary gave them BS after 10 minutes. If this film judged the fat people, call them names, and blame their choice of food in an unspeakable terms then I will surely write a negative review. But none of it was delivered in this film. I'm not going to buy a juicer. But after seeing this documentary participated by health experts and medical doctors, I now have a different approach to eating food. I choose healthy lifestyle because I do not want to get sick and pay for high health care costs. It is my choice.

I just saw this movie on Netflix, and I have to agree with the reviewers who have voiced their concern about some of the misinformation present in the film. The agenda of the filmmakers becomes obvious about halfway through, and by the end it does turn into a full blown infomercial for juicing. An activity that has been soundly committed to the nutritional dustbin years ago as questionable at best and quite dangerous at worst.What is ironic is that the interviewees spend much time talking about what is natural and unnatural to put in one's body, then try to convince the unwitting viewer that gulping down glasses of fruit and vegetable juices is natural. Well, it isn't any more natural than eating Twinkies. It results in the same sugar overload delivered by sugary sodas and sweets. Fiber is the natural delivery system of vitamins, minerals and other nutrients found in vegetables and fruits. For example, our bodies are suited to eat an apple or two at a time, not to drink the juice extracted from a dozen or more apples in one sitting.It's too bad, because the film does also provide some good common sense information, though most of that information has already been widely disseminated elsewhere in the past. But since they do include it, and it does provide some contrast to the misinformation, I gave the movie 5 stars. But for someone who is not aware, the movie can be dangerously misleading.
