Redundant and unnecessary.

Overrated and overhyped

Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

The main take away point from this "documentary" is simple: everyone has an agenda. I can't think of any other summary of this so-called "documentary" other than that. The start of this infomercial contains important information (with zero citations or studies listed..), but the latter half is a full-blown infomercial. Health is important and the cast of this "documentary" should be absolutely ashamed to try an profit from it so underhandedly.If you want a real educational documentary that is similar WITH STUDIES , then watch OUR DAILY POISON! It is a million times better than this and is in it for the people, not the money. The makers of "Hungry for Money" are little better than the corporations they are slandering. The world would be a better place without both of them.

Hungry for Change is a documentary that denounces the Food & Beverage industry, holding it largely responsible for obesity and consequential unhealthiness in the US. It condemns the dieting industry for maintaining the status quo while disguised as a cure.So, how do you lose weight, regain energy and treat any associated illnesses? Hungry for Change promotes the consumption of natural whole foods as the only real solution. The film is not too loaded or soppy (my main complaint with these types of documentaries), and extremely interesting.This film won't come as a revelation for those who are already nutrition-conscious, but it's a great reminder not to fall for that refreshing diet soda anytime soon. I highly recommend the watch to those who have a desire to lose weight and have tried every fad diet without success, for those who feel plain unhealthy and need a change.For a more in-depth summary, check out my article on www.omalou.com!

The plot: 1. Feel bad about yourself, then go buy an expensive juicer. 2. Buy bushels of unwashed vegetables from the back of some random truck (also known as a farmer's market.) Eat only bunches of unwashed parsley and cilantro. 3. Drop 400 lbs. and claim it's due solely to consuming "Phyto-nutrients." 4. Interview a host of anorexic men who have added such titles as "Whole Food and Natural Expert" to their list of "Credentials." 5. Replace the guy who provides the soundtrack for the first half of the film because he only plays sad minor and diminished chords. (People who just started juicing only hear inspirational, happy melodic sounds.) 6. Improve the lighting on the movie set, start wearing bright colors, curl your hair and *finally* smile for the camera. 7. Beat cancer in just three days, you've saved the planet and now you're going to live to be at least 100 years old. 8. Replace thatexpensive juicer with an even more expensive one. *But,* only buy the brand marketed/endorsed by the guy who's done the "Research." Coincidentally, he starred in this film and his QVC infomercial verifies that he's an "Independent Expert."

I'm a fitness instructor, the information is basic but relevant, and good to be reminded of. More often than it's realized, such basics are not understood, known, are overlooked, or simply ignored by many average people just going through their daily routine. What's most important than a critical opinion of the movie are masses of people "struggling with the basics" and need help with the simplest things, and encouragement to follow through with change, then maintain that change. I've seen some reviews elsewhere that seem a bit critical. However, like all things you take what's useful to you as an individual. If the information is nothing new to you, that's fine, but don't underestimate how new and life changing it might be to those who are not as informed as you. Therefore as I watched this movie I was thinking beyond myself, but rather for the benefit of others in need that are not as informed (regardless of how basic). I say it's a great movie that's worth watching, and the information is relevant enough to refer clients to watch it as well.
