Perfect cast and a good story

a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

Plastics are everywhere because they make products easier to ship, non-breakable, more attractive, and because they are cheap to manufacture. However the use of plastics to contain foods, beverages, to store foods, and for disposable water and soda bottles (etc.) are dangerous; for the long-term. We even use plastic bottles, sippy cups, pacifiers, teething rings, bowls and utensils for our children; because they don't break. Just the use is bad enough, but heating the plastics is even more dangerous. Chemicals leach out of plastic containers, and slowly create serious irreversible health conditions. Plastic (for food uses) is going to become an epidemic; we have just scratched the surface. I am getting rid of 90% of all plastic containers, cups, ziplock bags and utensils in my house and am going to glass or stainless. Also limiting the packaging of bought products. The manufacturers aren't going to protect you. Health cures; natural apple cider vinegar, H2o2.

Oh, I'm sure my review won't be voted the best one at all, likely voted down, but this movie must be some kind of joke.Sure, making a movie to show us where all the plastic we use in our lives could be interesting to watch, but Plastic Planet aims to make us feel like earth-killing monsters who need to use less plastic and spend more money to keep the planet from destruction. My god, it's not the f*ck1ng APOCALYPSE! I never use biodegradable bottles or bags (they cost more and I like pollution, anyway) and I don't recycle, neither do the hundred-some family members, friends and co-workers in my life, nor do many of the people in the community, or in the nearby city, or the island, or the whole province, and is the planet collapsing? Has it become a littered wasteland of garbage? No! And sure, Nova Scotia is just one province in the country but I've been to many countries and have yet to see one littered and polluted to the point of total destruction. Yes, I've seen the Great Pacific garbage patch and Beijing and Chernobyl and the Alberta Tar Sands and Love Canal, Bhobal, Scunthorpe, Sydney Tar Ponds, New Jersey, many of earth's supposedly most polluted lands, and never is it nearly as drastic as they say.Not only is Plastic Planet one-sided, it is also an environmental extremism scare tactic for a problem that really just isn't there.I won't be unfair, they do present their side of the matter effectively. But there are two sides to every story. Of course, there never will be a documentary or fictional movie in favor of pollution, this green movement crud has already swept the world with the ideology that to save the world we have to hate pollution, factories, jobs and industry and change our ways. Now we have to blame plastic. And environmentalists with their gourmet Starbucks and khaki shorts and biodegradable bottles can often afford to look like they care, though most of them really just want to yell about something.My advice, if you're smart and want to watch a movie that presents both sides of the matter evenly, pass this one up, it isn't worth your time unless you're a die-hard hippie or a global warming alarmist.And for the record, was the director even considering how much plastic is used in mass DVD production of this film? I've never seen anyone recycle a DVD and I assume this one will be piling up in landfills when viewers everywhere see it.

The film is a documentary, speak about the dangers of plastic on the environment. The documentary it's create in September 2009. The main character of the documentary is Werner Bod. I liked the documentary because we see the documentary is true, the true investigation (…) on the boss the plastic. I also liked history of the family when he speak grand-father in big manufacturing of plastic. Werner bode prove in the body plastic and the element of plastic bis phenol A is very dangerous for the health but also for the environment and for the life. But the documentary scene has violent. I agree with the documentary because it is good.

I thought this movie was going to be all about plastic and how it is clogging up our environment, and in part it was, but actually it was also much more. I enjoyed the scene where they showed the desert where Lawrence from Arabia was filmed, or the one where they worked to clean the beach of Nature Island, knowing that next year they would have to come back and do the same, and of course the bit with the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, but what really surprised me was the fact that we all have plastic in our blood! I mean I know plastic is everywhere, but even inside of us! That was a surprise. The most surprising of all however, was not all the information about plastic, but how LITTLE information the plastics industry is willing to share! I understand that they want to keep their "secret recipes" safe from their competitors, but come on every bit of food I buy has a list of ingredients on it too. Even if I know all the ingredients for a cake it still doesn't mean I can bake it myself. So what is the big deal? Is there something they do not want us to know? The government has passed so many regulations to protect us from what we consume, so why is it impossible for the EU to get any such a regulations passed for the plastics industry? I mean sure we don't eat it, but we certainly do put enough of it in our mouths almost every day. Just think, how many plastic bottles have you drunk from in the past week? Not to mention babies and baby bottles and pacifiers… What is all this plastic doing to our children, and why can't we as the consumers even find out what it is we are consuming? I think this film does its job well and succeeds in doing exactly what I would expect from this type of documentary. It has opened my eyes and motivated me to start asking more questions. Who knows, if enough of us start asking we might get some answers and even bring about a change! If you have not seen this film yet, then you should!
