Wow, it's crazy how there are 4 reviews that slam the movie, yet it's overall rating is still high.
Maybe it's because you have people like melinda2001 who thinks "Glutamate" is the "G" in ATGC. Try guanine, not glutamate.
While I believe any movie is open to criticism, even these "Food Matters" films, I think this production has been one of the most sane ones. Why?
Unlike the juicing, vegan, raw food, etc movies, this one was more balanced. One contributor even said, if you can do small steps like reducing red meat intake, it will be helpful.
The main message I took away was to try to shift away from the processed and more to the whole foods. What's wrong with that?
Remember, IMDb has a weighted rating system to filter out new people, weak reviewers, etc. This movie is still a solid 7. I suggest you watch it for yourself before you believe the conventional wisdom posted by others like melinda2001.

I'm going to put it like this. i love my fast food and fatty convenience packaged meals. fruit and veg, never touch them.
I was so inspired at one hour in, that i paused the video and ended up eating a bowl overloaded with raw veges and fruit.
through the beginning I did find it to be dis-interesting. and nearly turned it off. i'm just pleased i stuck it out.
the overall message is clear and the point does come across. at times some of the info does seem to be directive at putting down major corporations. and at times a little far fetched. but as i watched i did sift through an take away the vital points i see as worth. which have been of an unparalleled value to me.

I don't understand why some people here keep on saying another infomercial. Really? You did not get the point at all? Just because the people in this documentary are authors selling books about health doesn't mean they are promoting their products. Where in the film did they promote it because I want to see.
The message is CRYSTAL-CLEAR. CHOOSE A HEALTHY LIFESTYLE. It's sad that some people fail to see it instead writing a negative review that this documentary gave them BS after 10 minutes. If this film judged the fat people, call them names, and blame their choice of food in an unspeakable terms then I will surely write a negative review. But none of it was delivered in this film.
I'm not going to buy a juicer. But after seeing this documentary participated by health experts and medical doctors, I now have a different approach to eating food. I choose healthy lifestyle because I do not want to get sick and pay for high health care costs. It is my choice.

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.

Thats the main goal with this movie. To inspire people to find their own way. Its not all about finding THE right food, THE right vegetable and what not. Its about being hungry for change. If this movie doesn't trigger your mind to make a better life for yourself, Im afraid you missed the point. You could ask any multi billion dollar company for a comment regarding the so-called healthy food they are producing and their answer would be like it always is; we have no comment. Just because they don't give a .... about you. Its all about profit. The people in this movie has walked in your shoes, they know what its like and they know whats working and whats not working. Its up to you who you wanna believe. Either you're hungry for change, or you're already on your way back to your doctor for another dose of addictive drugs that do you no good.
