Contrary to some earlier reviews GMO OMG was not bad at all, I quite enjoyed most of it. It is done in a narrated home movie style featuring a father and his family. This style makes it much more appealing to younger viewers. The very pro gmo big agribusiness supports may not enjoy the questioning tone of this movie, as massive profits are hinging upon public perceptions of their chemicals and genetically altered food products are at stake. The premise for the film is a fathers concern that he is doing everything in his power to keep his kids safe and healthy as he learns about how little we question what we eat. I think it speaks volumes toward the fact that most of us have lost touch with where and how we produce our food. His self education process appears credible. There are things that could have been more polished, but I think he preferred the one take credibility as opposed to more staging and scripting. He gives us a picture of the striking difference in public concerns for food production between North America and many places around the planet by traveling to and interviewing people in the business of farming and food safety. One chemical company turfs him off their property rather than say one word about their products. Quote for one scene:"It is ultimately not being about GMOs or big industrial agriculture and chemicals. It is about being for what is good and healthy and right for the planet." "We are finally beginning to wake up and become part of a food movement happening around the world". This movie is a good starting place for families interested in what we are eating and how it is grown.

It took all of 10 minutes for me to start asking "is he going to present any facts, or will this be entirely him making assumptions?" Didn't take long after that for me to start laughing at it. And not much longer after that i just gave up on it. If you're already anti-GMO you'll probably really enjoy this. If you're hoping for information, on the other hand, don't waste your time. He makes claims about GMOs being bad for you, while also saying there's no credible data about GMOs. What? How does that work? The opening of the movie set the tone perfectly: very biased parents trying to protect their kids from all chemical threats. It's one thing if you actually understand what you're afraid of, but it's another to make a documentary claiming that all GMOs are bad when you don't know what your dealing with. At one point, he says he's ready for a fist fight... hopefully he meant to fight off angry viewers who wasted money on this fact deficient propaganda film.

I think this is a good show worth watching, however, you need to be careful on what to expect up front. From reading some of the bad reviews, they took this as a serious documentary. As a documentary, this plays out much like the Trump campaign. Scare tactics with kids to establish their point, no substance in any argument, lack of any expert opinion, etc, etc. The documentary is much better described as a comical horror movie. The plot more or less plays out that GMOs are monsters that have overtaken our food and our children are the victims of these monsters. Just keep in mind, just like monsters are not hiding in your closet and the boogie man does not exist, GMOs are not so scary (they are more regulated and carefully managed than the organic counterparts). I think a good sequel would be "Starvation: The Consequence of Organic Farming."

I thought this doc was an eye opener for the common man. After all the common man is the one who is the one who is consuming the food at the end of the food chain. Many of the reviewers here complain and question the qualification of the producer which I don't understand. Why should a person be qualified when he asking simple questions about what we put in our body? Why is GMO banned in different countries around the world but it's not even labeled as such here in the US? The documentary presented the facts about food which we eat in our daily lives. And it raised questions about how it is slowly impacting our body. I disagree with reviewers who are saying this is not credible enough because the filmmaker is not a scientist or considered a "professional" in the field, or that it's too biased. The filmmaker does not himself have to be a scientist or a "professional in the field" to create a credible product, so long as it is well- researched and well-produced, and it is. The documentary was meant to be (as just about every other documentary is meant to be) thought-provoking and inspirational, and it was, definitely. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to find out more info on the subject of GMOs, and if you are disappointed that there wasn't more info provided, maybe do some independent research on the reports and articles mentioned? This doc isn't supposed to be the only source of information on the subject, there's lot's to read and watch. Definitely a great starting point though, for sure!

OOOOO--WHEE! There are just some very passionate reviewers around here. I gave this one a good 24 hours to simmer before writing this. First off, I'm going to review the documentary, not do what most of the 1-star reviewers do and spout off about how GMO fears are all a hoax. My rating of GMO OMG is low because I felt our friendly narrator here exploited his children to tell his story. Seifert is new to making documentaries and while he creates some pretty pictures, they're a little too sentimental for his narrative. He's brave for taking on this subject and one can wonder if all these 1-star reviews are not part of some corporate public relations department's retaliation. My soap box is: that if GMOs are so safe, then what's the big deal about labeling them? Labels give people the CHOICE to decide what they put in their bodies. (Though now labels don't really even matter because GMOs are in everything, so, moving on)

First off, I think the whole GMO 'debate'has been over-simplified. The prominent issue many of us have with GMOs is with seeds that are being modified in order to be bombarded with poison(s). The argument that this will feed all the worlds starving population is simply ludicrous and short sighted. This 'food shortage' other reviewers speak of is a fallacy, we have a MASSIVE ALLOCATION problem one in which all the roundup they make will not solve, ever. To say that that GMO will fix this is ridiculous, open your eyes and realize everything is about profits. Feeding starving people is not profitable, period. Feeding the insane amounts of cattle in North America (where BTW all that GMO corn goes to) well now that is. So next time one wants to argue that roundup ready seeds will feed the world, stop and do a bit of research, you will find out where all that corn and grain is actually going.I promise you that it is not going to feed the starving population that you speak of. As many people have stated, GMOs have been around forever...so if this is the solution to end world hunger then why are so many people still going hungry? We make more than enough food to feed everyone and this is a fact. Soon this will no longer be the case though, if we continue on this path our bee populations will continue to dwindle and no one will be able to grow anything. The fact that even Pixar and children know this and naysayers don't, would be funny if it wasn't so tragic. There simply is not enough room on here to address the issues but if you want to believe that roundup ready is nutritious and healthy, I feel sorry for you and your ignorance. I feel for our planet and all the destruction that these chemicals cause. Hopefully my younger generation (who sees things VERY differently than the boomers)will be able to affect change...one has to hope. Even your own president would rather eat organic produce, how that doesn't say something to you is beyond belief.

I had no idea why GMO was a big fuss until I watched this documentary. It clearly explained what a GMO is, how it was introduced,the history, and the problems we face today with the farmers and Monsanto specifically. The narrator interviewed both sides so that you could hear the other side's argument. It is a bit one sided, but the narrator wants to make a point. The experts at Monsanto refused any interviews. The interviews he did with his kids were not to be taken seriously. They were to show what children think of GMO and their understanding. It upsets me that organic farmers have been forced to buy Monsanto's seeds because Monsanto threatened to sue them. The overall movie was very informational, and I recommend watching it before judging.

A huge disappointment. Failed to provide a balanced argument about the GMO. Arguments were based in fear mongering with his innocent children as his marionettes. Failed to consult any science professionals. He states early on in the film that there are two types of GMOs. It takes a very minimal amount of research to realize that there a plethora of GMOs beyond the two he mentioned...Nutritional fortified sweet potatoes to ameliorate malnourishment or disease resistant GMO to increase yields in underperforming landscapes, and this list is by no means exhaustive. There is a clear oversight of anything remotely scientific in his arguments. There is something to be said about the fact that the majority of peer reviewed literature focused on the topic of genetically modified organisms are in their defense. I am not speaking from the perspective of a corporate sponsor rather from a concerned global citizen who fears for the future of growing populations that deserves to be fed.

This is the best documentary on GMO's I've ever seen, and I've seen about 5 or so, not all of them, but a respectable amount. Other reviewers poorly rate the film because there is little-to-no evidence that GMO's are harmful. Yeah, that is true, but that's not the point. GMO crops are best friends with pesticides and herbicides which they bath in, both of which have been linked to harmful health effects. Supporting GMO's means you support the increased use of harmful pesticides. This documentary is well made. It's very stylistic and shot in a very interesting fashion. Visuals aside, plenty of normal and professional people are interviewed and questioned. It's a good mix of people's opinions on the matter, some being supporters of GMO's. The kid/family stuff gets a tad excessive at times, but that's not a huge complaint. It actually provided a decent backbone to the story: a father's journey. When they all dressed up in make-shift hazmat suits and ran through the pesticide corn field--I found that quite clever. Speaking of MONSANTO... What stumps me is why on earth would anyone support such a dirty corporation (Monsanto) that refuses to label their products, kicks away anyone wanting an interview, has people who work in the govt to push forward Monsanto GMO's, messes with farmers NOT using Monsanto products, and who creates some of the most harmful and hazardous chemicals known to man and puts it on our food and in our homes all of which they're too afraid to release real data of. Remember all those defoliants (known as AGENT ORANGE) the US used against the Vietnamese in the Vietnam War? Yeah, some of those were made by Monsanto. 20 million gallons of Agent Orange were sprayed over Vietnam between 1962 and 1971. Agent Orange killed or harmed every living thing it touched, and the Vietnam people are still suffering from it. 400,000 people were killed from Agent Orange. 500,000 people were deformed. Millions more still suffer today. That is all the work of, yes... you guessed it: MONSANTO. They STILL could care LESS about people. It's all about money, as this documentary said. Monsanto is corruption at its finest. THAT is why they shouldn't be supported.
