  • Summary: Today in the United States, by the simple act 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. GMO OMG tells the story of a father's 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!… Expand

    A documentary that is by turns exasperating, illuminating, and intentionally infuriating.

    With the cinematography and its family-centric approach, it takes what could have been a dry subject and broadens its appeal.

    If forewarned is forearmed, Seifert's movie might one day prove quite prescient.

    To the informed consumer hoping for greater elucidation, Mr. Seifert’s partisan, oversimplified survey falls short.

    Why anyone would think that home movies of the director and his kids belong in a social-issues doc is a truly WTF question.

    You 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.

    What’s proffered isn’t a scientific argument against a burgeoning agro-industrial movement, but an emotional, quasi-spiritual case about humanity's relationship with the environment.
