Cleveronix A different way of telling a story

Bergorks If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

Kodie Bird True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

Cameron Sours This movie is very slick, in both the good and bad meanings of that word. It does not bother with qualifying statements at all. In discussing Ethanol from sugarcane in Brazil, they do not discuss the environmental impact from clear cutting and burning. There is no real discussion of the break even point or capitalization required for methanol and ethanol production.Several other issues: * Flex Fuel may require fitting changes as well as a new ECU. * Modern Flex Fuel automotive equipment was developed by a consortium. * Trots out the GM trolley car conspiracy without any evidence. * Claims that Prohibition targeted Ethanol fuel without any evidence.I wish I could trust this documentary at all.

tiagov8 The general idea of the movie makes a lot of sense, but I am a Brazilian and what they say about Brazil is so terribly wrong and unreal... Sounds like the former president Lula paid for the movie. Just minutes with false propaganda. I can't tell about all the rest, which as I said makes sense, however, the part that I know about makes me think the whole thing wasn't properly investigated at all. Brazil is in a terrible economic crisis... We could say that the movie is from 2012/2013, when things were a bit better, but even though, the ethanol is far far far away from being a competitor beside gas. It was never Lula's, like the movie makes people think. They say 40% of our population entered in the middle class, but what happened is that the government intentionally changed the measuring, so after Lula, anyone who makes 2,500 USD a year (!) can be considered in middle class. It's just ridiculous... and the producers didn't investigate it. They certainly only heard one side of the story... which is the worst thing a documentarist can do.

scottied-256-552263 This documentary is full of propaganda and delivers an overwhelmingly biased display of options. More than half the film covers bio-fuels and how they are heaven sent. bio-fuels such as ones from corn or any another biodegradable source have vastly different and unreliable densities and efficiencies. It doesn't matter if you can technologically change your car simply, because unless your car is specifically designed for a specific bio-fuel type, you will wear the engine and fuel injector and the residue left from bio-fuels leaves hydrogenated goo in all of your parts. Not to mention that bio-fuels take way over 100% more energy in oil to produce and transport than they give off. Other more likely sources like electricity which is given 10 minutes of coverage uses lithium (to name the main one) which is even more of a nonrenewable resource than oil. Solar uses rare minerals like cadmium, selenium, etc which are expensive to mine and will run out long before oil if you transfer mass production to them. Also there are so many flat out lies in this film. One lady says the only reason more of our energy isn't produced by wind is because we don't have more electric cars out there.....uhhh not only does that not even make sense logically, the reason we don't have more wind and geothermal and solar (other than the reasons i already mentioned) is because wind is super unreliable. It needs additional sources for times when its not windy (or too windy, because they shut down at too high of speeds). You would also need a bajillion of them to come close to even one nuclear plant. If you want to watch an informative movie of viable options go find another film. If you want to watch a biased, conspiracy-theory-filled, that doesn't look at the pros and cons of both options then go for it. this film is for you! There's a reason engineers are working around the clock looking for viable options to replace oil dependency and allow for choices. Until they find ones that are more reliable, less dependent on other highly non-renewable sources, and can be mass produced to keep the cost down, then oil will still reign. All of the options in this movie already exist.....anyone can choose them.....there's reasons they don't. Oil is cheaper and there's a ton of it!

ringa46 We are always being preached at by leftists about our "addiction to oil."This they do while driving cars, using air conditioners, using electricity (which BTW, is generated by oil/coal) and using products that contain plastic.The DVD/Blu-ray you are viewing the film on is made of some form of plastic (oil). The keyboard you are furiously typing on to tell me I'm wrong, is MADE OF PLASTIC (oil).I'm sick of these hypocrites preaching to us how we have to stop using oil, while they go merrily on using all the oil they wish.It's only okay for them, it's just not okay for us.We have to give up OUR cars, OUR air conditioning, OUR plastics, on and on and on.Meanwhile, they live in mansions, drive Cadillacs, fly Lear jets, and have no problem buying that big screen TV which has a LOT of plastic in it.How much oil was used to make this film?Hypocrites, every single one of them.
