Disturbing yet enthralling

A Disappointing Continuation

At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

This documentary has the potential to change the lives of so many people, by asking questions that we wouldn't normally think about in our day to day lives, like "why is it okay for us to treat animals like they are less than humans, when we think it is very wrong to treat other humans that way?"I would highly recommend Speciesism: The Movie to everyone - it's important that as many people as possible see it so that we can all be aware of where our food comes from and why we think that it's okay (or don't). If you are a vegan, vegetarian, or omnivore, you should definitely watch this documentary, even if it is only to better understand the people in your life who make the decision to stop eating meat.

The most forward thinking and revolutionary documentary film I have ever seen (and I have seen A LOT). Make sure you stick out the first half as it takes a while for the documentary to get going. Initially I just thought it was another typical documentary of it's kind until the second half began. I have been well and truly blown away. Please make sure you watch this documentary all the way through. It really is incredible. It will change the way you think and possibly change your life. It is so revolutionary in it's ideas and theories. I urge anyone to go Vegan if you are already a vegetarian, it will change your life for the better and open up a world of food you didn't even know about.

Humans tend to think of themselves as superior for the most part. We are not: our callousness for allowing our society for force itself to think of animals as our 'supply-and-demand' bucket is shown in all its disgusting glory in full-force on this documentary. Supplement this with other videos/blogs/articles/news/etc. detailing the atrocities we subject our counterpart equals (yes, animals - all of them) to.Animals are here with us to teach us compassion, love, and to live life from beginning to end with their families and how they choose. If you don't believe otherwise and still choose to blindly subject yourself to modern-day inexcusable cannibalism (unknowingly, unwillingly or otherwise), this documentary can help you out should you need any guidance for an open heart.This may not me much of a review more than it's a personal view of wanting anyone who needs some clarification to watch this for the sake of animal's lives - they are counting on your decision :)

I saw the premiere in Los Angeles, and was one of the first to stand for the well-deserved standing ovation. This is a film that makes a tremendous philosophical case for the equality of all species, in a fun and entertaining way. The movie is speckled with numerous humorous moments that make the serious content palatable, leaving you feeling enlightened and empowered to make positive choices for your health, the environment, an animals.Most interesting and not often mentioned is the fact that Mark Devries, the director, was NOT vegan when he started out making this film. He was just curious about the topic and approached it with reason and critical thinking. He transformed his diet over the course of the making of the film, but knowing that you're learning with him as he goes, scene by scene of the movie, makes the experience even more fun because you feel a kind of camaraderie. Make some tasty animal-free appetizers, invite your friends over, and watch it together - it's a great ride!
