Today in the United States, by the simple acts of feeding ourselves, we are unwittingly participating in the largest experiment ever conducted on human beings. Each of us unknowingly consumes genetically engineered food on a daily basis. The risks and effects to our health and the environment are largely unknown. Yet more and more studies are being conducted around the world, which only provide even more reason for concern. We are the oblivious guinea pigs for wide-scale experimentation of modern biotechnology. GMO OMG tells the story of a fathers discovery of GMOs in relationship to his 3 young children and the world around him. We still have time to heal the planet, feed the world, and live sustainably. But we have to start now!
Leave your thoughts about GMO OMG.
| Village VoiceErnest HardyA documentary that is by turns exasperating, illuminating, and intentionally infuriating. |
| Toronto StarBruce DemaraSeifert approaches the subject from the perspective of a concerned father of three youngsters and he comes across as earnest and well-intentioned. |
| Los Angeles TimesGary GoldsteinIf forewarned is forearmed, Seifert's movie might one day prove quite prescient. |
| NYC Movie GuruAvi OfferEye-opening, compelling and accessible to the laymen. |
| The PlaylistKimber MyersWith the cinematography and its family-centric approach, it takes what could have been a dry subject and broadens its appeal. |
| Shockya.comBrent SimonRecognizing that minds are changed as much through the heart as a litany of facts, GMO OMG manages to provoke important self-reflection in viewers. |
| Time OutAndrew SchenkerWhy anyone would think that home movies of the director and his kids belong in a social-issues doc is a truly WTF question. |
| National PostDavid BerryStarting from a place of ignorance and never going much further, Seifert omits anything that might hurt his obvious anti-GMO thesis. |
| RogerEbert.comSimon AbramsYou could get mad at Seifert for being so bad at being so nakedly manipulative. Or you could just give up all hope, and counter-intuitively root for Monsanto. This is a David-vs.-Goliath movie, but David's aim is so spotty that Goliath has nothing to fear. |
| New York TimesJeannette CatsoulisTo the informed consumer hoping for greater elucidation, Mr. Seifert’s partisan, oversimplified survey falls short. |
