Review For American Meat |
A low-key, fairly evenhanded look at industrial vs. organic methods of raising livestock. Ronnie Scheib-Variety
Less sensationalist than its similarly themed predecessors, this informative documentary makes a strong case for the benefits of organic famring. Frank Scheck-Hollywood Reporter
An advocacy film better suited for a class than for a cinema. Nicolas Rapold-New York Times
The problem is that this rah-rah chronicle never addresses the dangerous, distressing disparity between non-organic farms, which are still the norm, and the ones focused on here. Joe Neumaier-New York Daily News
American Meat won't fully counter the negative sentiment that the meat industry has, but it's not entirely propaganda, either. Araceli Cruz-Village Voice
Too simplistic. You can't help but recall a much more insightful and thorough doc that treads similar ground, Food, Inc. Avi Offer-NYC Movie Guru
Very informative documentary even if it allows the filthy Steve Ells of Chipotle's a platform. Louis Proyect-rec.arts.movies.reviews
A hopeful and enlightening documentary on the baby steps being taken to offer alternatives to big industry farming. Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat-Spirituality and Practice
Despite the intensity of its scope and research, American Meat is a decidedly soft-hitting display of an overweening good faith that, frankly, just can't jibe with the times. Steve Macfarlane-Slant Magazine
