The largest health issue in the world today is obesity, primarily due to sugar and the big business that shamelessly sells it. As a film, this is standard doc fare: lots of expert interviews, snappy graphics, media footage (much of it horribly grainy) and real people whose stories make it personal. This one actually hammers home its message too often, which drags the pace and becomes frustrating. So many documentaries are full of righteous outrage and shocking statistics. It’s a shame that the intended audiences will probably never benefit from it’s message.
