Gasland is another shocking documentary that exposes corporate greed in America at the expense of the health , lifestyle and well-being of the common hard working citizen.
These families are at severe risk because of energy firms who are drilling for gas on their land , yet , as you would expect from these evil companies , they deny the harm they are doing. The scenes are amazing. Because of the gas Fracking ( a term for underground gas exploration) these people have water coming out of their taps so contaminated they can set fire to it! The water is all different colours , it smells of fuel and worst of all it makes people very sick.
While this film is shocking , it lacks the balls required to expose these people. The documentary maker does not take on the bosses as hard as he should and he's voice is extremely dull.
I felt this movie wasn't finished and i would have liked to have seen a " Michael Moore" style expose instead of the weak way Josh Fox went about things.
Gasland is informative and it makes you angry but as a film , it's a bit monotone.
