Eating Animals Reviews

Eating Animals is less about delivering a message than making a case, and it's unlikely your relationship with food will be unchanged after seeing this harrowing work.

| Jun 17, 2020

Eating Animals is a real eye-opener.

| Mar 20, 2020

[A] hard-hitting documentary.

| Mar 11, 2020

There's a very strong argument in it, that vegetarianism is the future.

| Jun 15, 2019

Absorbing but horrifying, this hearts-and-minds documentary about factory farming is a conscientious survey of cruel practice in the name of cheap and convenient meat.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Jun 10, 2019

This could be the most important film you see all year.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Jun 10, 2019

A difficult watch, but an essential one.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Jun 9, 2019

It's arresting material, delivered with passion. But, as a documentary, it's sometimes scattershot and random, and ultimately preaching, one suspects, to the choir.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jun 7, 2019

All in all, Eating Animals makes for a sobering watch, and by the time you've sat through a quarter of it, you'll either be thanking your lucky stars for being a vegetarian or you'll become one on the spot.

| Jun 7, 2019

Well meaning politically, but positively sucks as a movie.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Jun 7, 2019

It's a film that tells you what you already knew - and then made a conscious or unconscious decision to forget, if you are a meat-eater.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Jun 6, 2019

A timely and often disturbing look inside a multi-billion-dollar industry.

| Jun 5, 2019

Employing a varied format which incorporates archive material, specially shot footage of factories, farms and labs, and interviews in varied locations, the film remains interesting throughout.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jun 3, 2019

If ever a single film could inspire you to turn vegetarian it is Eating Animals.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Jun 3, 2019

Eating Animals makes some good points, although not a lot of new ones, on far-ranging topics all connected to the problems created by factory farming of animals.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Apr 23, 2019

If you begin researching where your food comes from and that carries over to your spending habits at the grocery store, Quinn, Foer, and Portman have done their job.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Dec 14, 2018

Can Eating Animals really enact substantial change? While I do believe the message here will be lost [like many others], it at least introduces viable alternatives.

| Original Score: 6/10 | Aug 28, 2018

Anyone who has ever had a relationship with an animal will be given pause by the film, and it might lead more of us to consider the moral cost of our supper.

| Original Score: 86/100 | Aug 3, 2018

Hold on, fellow meat eaters! Director Christopher Quinn's film isn't the blood-spattered, viral footage-laced, sermonizing moral lecture you might think it will be.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Jul 16, 2018

Their stories are grim but hopeful.
