"The Benny's Video of documentary films, Our Daily Bread's only point is to have none." - Ed Gonzalez

Feels like some surreal, Weberian nightmare of rationality run amok or, with its unflinching and static takes, some dystopian satire in which ruthless efficiency supercedes any other possible value. It's a chilling rebuke to the pastoral myth -- what Food Inc. would look like if Food Inc. had any inkling toward the cinematic.

An interesting, objective take on industrial food production in Western society. The directors do a great job taking an objective viewpoint on the cultivation on fruit, vegetables, and animals. Cinematography is excellent, with no shot shorter than 20 seconds, which allows you to make the decision. If you ever wondered how that pepper or roast chicken arrived at your supermarket, this film is for you.

A mesmerizing look at high production agriculture and how we manage to feed seven billion earthlings. I say earthlings because I now feel like we've become this sort of alien race that has become unrecognizable to any sort of "human" element. We've successfully removed any sort of life intrinsic value to our food that we eat and we've managed to become this sort of infection to the natural world around us. But above all, this movie made me really, really hungry.

The images speak volumes about how cold and impersonal the food production process is. Machines for specific animal-rendering jobs, people performing repetitive tasks, massive facilities. The cinematography is superb, with framing that is Kubrickian in its scale, depth and symmetry. The film is hypnotic and meditative, giving the viewer room to form his own opinions, to wander down different avenues of thought regarding how we produce and consume food. But any conclusions you draw are your own.

Beautifully shot, and a insightful look at how our food is treated.

Very interesting perspectives without any direct judgement by the filmmakers. However, it clearly shows us that we have lost connection to what we eat today, we just buy it in supermarkets and don't know anything about its production process. Dehumanisation and denaturalisation are the key words for this movie. Very recommendable.
