User Reviews

The movie that opens our eyes !

Plastic Planet is a documentary about the pollution of plastic. It's a movie by Werner Boote shot in 2008. In the movie we can see the different problems of plastic with some interviews in different countries. There are families who we shot different things in plastic in our their house.

In my opinion, this movie is too long because when he interviews people it's boring. But I think that this film opens our eyes on the truth about plastic. This movie scares because after having see it, we see plastic everywhere : in our house, in hour car …

The strong points of this movie are that Plastic Planet said the truth about plastic, because a lot of people don't know. And for the third times, this movie opens our eyes! This film is interesting and everybody can see it. It's must-see !

The bad points of Plastic Planet are that the interviews are boring because people say the same things, and the movie is too long.
