****Very educational!****

Perfect!!! Well balanced...you have a mix of experts and pundits who provide some excellent ideas and options. Stop eating carbs? No. Go Atkins? No. Instead, the movie provides suggestions on what foods to eat, why, and, how the boxed carbs and fake fats destroy our health. The movie includes vegan MD David Katz, Paleo advocate Mark Sisson, etc., etc., so, clearly trying to provide balance on the information provided.

The movie never insults -- instead, it keeps you smiling most of the time -- but opens with an surprising revelation regarding one of the two stars of the movie having had diabetes-related health issues because of his high carb diet despite exercising and maintaining a low % of bodyfat. (NOTE: there are others such as Tim Noakes, TJ Murphy who followed the high carb approach and also ended up with insulin resistance, pre-diabetes, etc., despite hours of endurance training, etc.)

BTW, stay through the whole movie -- a couple of humorous outtakes at the end.

My score 7/10.
