Eating Animals Ratings & Reviews
Chicago Reader
Andrea Gronvall
[A] hard-hitting documentary.
The London Economic
Linda Marric
All in all, Eating Animals makes for a sobering watch, and by the time you've sat through a quarter of it, you'll either be thanking your lucky stars for being a vegetarian or you'll become one on the spot.
Backseat Mafia
Rob Aldam
A timely and often disturbing look inside a multi-billion-dollar industry.
Eye for Film
Jennie Kermode
Employing a varied format which incorporates archive material, specially shot footage of factories, farms and labs, and interviews in varied locations, the film remains interesting throughout.
We Are Movie Geeks
Cate Marquis
Eating Animals makes some good points, although not a lot of new ones, on far-ranging topics all connected to the problems created by factory farming of animals.
The Victoria Advocate
Joe Friar
If you begin researching where your food comes from and that carries over to your spending habits at the grocery store, Quinn, Foer, and Portman have done their job.
Chicago Sun-Times
Richard Roeper
Hold on, fellow meat eaters! Director Christopher Quinn's film isn't the blood-spattered, viral footage-laced, sermonizing moral lecture you might think it will be.
Newsday
Rafer Guzman
If "Eating Animals" gets you to think twice about that prepackaged beef or frozen chicken, it will have done its job.
Arizona Republic
Samantha Incorvaia
"Eating Animals" brings heart to farmers who raise livestock on traditional values by showing how emotional they would get when sending their animals to the slaughterhouse.
Austin Chronicle
Jessi Cape
But even for me, an animal lover, a believer in the power of storytelling, and an advocate for meatless meals as often as possible, I just kept waiting for a revelation, or a reason (beyond the horror show footage) to care.
Los Angeles Times
Robert Abele
The message is clear, and memorably rendered: Care about where your meat comes from, because then you might eat less of it, feel better when you do eat it, and cause a little less suffering in the world.
Boston Globe
Peter Keough
Though not as graphically powerful as other documentaries on similar subjects... the emphasis on the disastrous global impact of these practices is more disturbing.
Slate
Inkoo Kang
An annoyingly blinkered piece of agitprop-but an effective one, too.
Washington Post
Michael O'Sullivan
"Eating Animals," at its core, poses two hard questions, the latter of which might seem intractable: "How did we get here?" and "How do we go somewhere else?"
RogerEbert.com
Christy Lemire
As eye-opening as it is stomach-turning, whether you're familiar with this topic or not.
Variety
Owen Gleiberman
A movie like "Eating Animals," by making you think twice about what you're taking a bite of, has stood its ground and done its job.
New York Times
Ben Kenigsberg
The movie isn't even advocating vegetarianism. But it seems impossible to come away from it without wanting to know more about where your meat comes from.
IndieWire
David Ehrlich
Eating Animals" makes it very clear that meat-eaters are driving a modern holocaust against their dinner.
Village Voice
Alan Scherstuhl
As a work of sustained, thoughtful inquiry, Eating Animals is a bust; as a reminder of what we should all be thinking about, though, it's searing.
The Hollywood Reporter
Stephen Farber
Passionate if incomplete protest of the American feeding frenzy.
