Movie Reviews

The New York Times - 7/10 by Jeannette CatsoulisOffering few solutions beyond a single fair-trade fashion company, The True Cost — whose serene interludes compete with sickening recordings of Black Friday shopping riots and so-called clothing haul videos — stirs and saddens. Not least because it’s unlikely to reach the young consumers most in need of its revelations.
Los Angeles Times - 5/10 by Martin TsaiOne would almost be inclined to give Morgan a pass for interviewing some of his executive producers as expert sources. A bigger disappointment is the missed opportunity to address the significant retailer markups that could have gone toward improving sweatshop conditions instead of profit margins.
The Dissolve - 5/10 by Genevieve KoskiThe True Cost’s aim is to make it impossible to ignore fashion’s impact on the world, and it takes an admirably thorough approach to its unwieldy subject. It’s not a particularly cinematic approach, however.
Village Voice - 2/10 by Alan ScherstuhlEven if, like me, you agree with the points that it's fumbling toward, The True Cost will likely read as dopey and insulting.
User Review - 10/10 by CarlitoshshI don't know a movie like this doesn't have most rating. It's a problem. You don't see to other side.
User Review - 7/10 by VirgonoShakaThe true cost is a movie that literally says what it wants; It wants to make you think of the clothes you buy and ask questions about it. And through its running time, it attempts to answer a few of the basic questions of what the true cost is for what it calls the second most polluting industry in the world. As a viewer, I can say that a lot of the questions that the movie was asking I had already seen or asked myself before, but a few were quite interesting and different, so in the general sense of its purpose, I can say that it achieves it with great effectiveness, so mission accomplished in that aspect. As a movie I can say that it does a good job in the way it presents the corporate and glamorous side of fashion with the brutal and harsh reality of its manufacture on the other side. Nevertheless, perhaps the structure of how its presented is not that effective because it asks us as viewers to think and do something to change this, but the presentation makes it feel that its a problem that may seem unsolvable by the regular people, or that its impact may be beyond healing, and the people the movie showcases as doing something different, as change ambassadors are fascinating, they overall scope still feels a little pessimistic. All in all in the end, the effort is still good, and its purpose is full-filled in general way, so I can definitely call this one a good documentary. Recommended although advised of crude imagery.
