Movie Review: horrific film
Summary: 5 Stars
I always thought an organization like PETA was full of *&%#. I thought animals were treated justly and only *&%holes like Vick abused animals. My eyes have been opened in a most un-Godly way. This film is very disturbing, very soul shaking. I will probably never view the world as I did prior to this film. I never believed people could be so cruel and viel. The level of suffering is hellacious. Animals just mutilated while still alive and fully aware and in intense pain. Men sadistically killing these animals with no regard that they feed and clothe us. They keep us alive and they die in intense pain without reverence or gratitude. Is it too much to ask they die by a kind and just hand with minimal pain???? That isn't our way anymore is it? We are a violent, greedy, me first society. My family and I have decided we will no longer support this barbaric process. We will only buy meat from a home grown farm where we know what the animal eats, how they live and, most importantly, how the animal dies. And if we can't do that, we will live without meat. We will not starve, there is plenty of food other then meat. It has been three weeks and I still can't get the visions of the treatment of these animals out of my thoughts. Please watch this DVD, spread the word, ask people to get the DVD and watch the film. This cruelty must stop!Movie Review: We should all watch this one!
Summary: 5 Stars
Earthlings is narrated by Academy Award nominee Joaquin Phoenix, who shares with us the harsh realities of man's five dependencies on animals. Food is an obvious one of them. The other four are clothing (leather and fur), companionship (cats and dogs), entertainment (zoos and circuses), and scientific experimentation. It's a film we should all watch at least once as it serves as a powerful reminder of the routine abuses of animals.
The images of factory farming and dolphin slaughtering are disturbing and not for those with weak stomachs. The gas chambers used to euthanize unwanted cats and the skinning of live animals for their fur are shocking. But perhaps most troubling images were those of the people performing the morbid tasks of abusing animals for no other point than entertainment. I've known about the debeaking of chicks and the castration, tail-docking and ear-clipping of pigs for a while and those images are part of what turned me veg, but after seeing what happens behind the scenes at circuses, I can unequivocally say that I will never, under any circumstance, go to a circus ever again. If you care at all about where your food or clothing comes from, please consider spending the 95 minutes to watch this film. What you witness will leave a lasting impression... one that I hope you will appreciate!
Movie Review: Nothing Will Change
Summary: 5 Stars
What I like most about the comments posted on this web page, is that all but maybe two or three of us just don't get it. I see nothing but bleeding hearts, crying over the animals. However, they are going to be first in line at the local steak house or fast food restaurant. Step up to the plate and attempt to grow your own food! Wow, you have a garden that satisfies 5% of your diet, GREAT! Try coming to my farm where we treat all of our animals as we're supposed to. Whether you believe in God and His method of treating animals, or you believe in some other religion which dictates how you treat animals, it's all roughly the same. The animals should never sense fear among themselves or feel pain or suffering. We have "happy" cows, goats, chickens, dogs, and a slew of other animals. If we decide to make one of ours into a meal, he/she has a great week of the best food I have. They get a lot of attention. When it's time, it's quick, painless, and no where near the other animals. So...get off your soap boxes, man/woman up, and decide for yourself that you are not going to eat food from a source that you don't know how the animals were treated. Until you can stomach it, keep eating your McDonald's Big Mac's, become obese, and enjoy a living in ignorance!Movie Review: every human should watch this documentary.
Summary: 5 Stars
i wish every person in the world would watch this documentary, i'm not saying it would make everyone stop eating meat or become vegan, but at least people would have the knowledge in front of them to make an informed decision, not hiding behind ignorance pushed by society. I think after seeing this movie people can at least see where vegans and vegetarians are coming from even if they do not to decide to become one themselves.
i was vegan before i watched this video, but to this day it is the ONLY movie i have ever cried watching, this documentary is raw and disturbing, its human selfishness at its finest, this movie literally made me want to vomit, seeing the fur torn of a breathing, living, FEELING! animal was disturbing beyond belief, it is one thing to know this kind of cruelty is happening, but a whole other thing to witness through video, to hear their screams of pain, that you never hear when you bite into that hamburger or slip into your leather shoes. to see the pain clearly in their eyes, watch the blood soak their fur,
we are sick selfish people. this wants me to disown being a part of this human society. this movie is life changing, its made me never question my choice to be vegan. why would anyone want to support this kind of cruelty?
Movie Review: What did we witness here?
Summary: 5 Stars
If you don't realize the meaning of life after watching this, there is no hope for you. This movie was nothing less than the truth. This needs to be required viewing for students everywhere. Parents, show this to your kids. I was especially moved by the section called 'RETALIATION'. Anyone who does not find themselves cheering these elephants on as they retaliate has something seriously wrong with them. Seeing the one elephant finally gunned down broke my heart (or what was left of my heart by that point in this documentary). One day I WILL open an Elephant Sanctuary in the name of that elephant!!! As for anyone who pays money to take your children to a circus... screw you!
No words can describe it. The Animal Experimentation part was horrible (a must see). The pig being blow torched ALIVE... HOW CAN THIS BENEFIT SCIENCE!?!?! What can that possibly prove?! People need to see this!! And all the other poor victims of science... the chimps/ monkeys, the cats and dogs, and all the other animals!! Nobody deserves to be shielded from this. Watch the deleted scenes, I WISH they had not removed them.
IF YOU DONT DEVOTE THE REST OF YOUR LIFE TO EDUCATION AND HELPING THESE ANIMALS>.... than screw you too.
