    The document provides a reaction to the movie "That Sugar Film". It summarizes that the movie effectively shows the dangers of hidden sugar but the main actor's experiment was not entirely healthy. While the sugar content of foods is outrageous, the film exaggerates at times and the experts were not fully credible. It agrees that diet is about food quality not quantity and exercise can help minimally. However, the amount of food eaten during the experiment was uncertain and other health factors were not considered. The recommendation to reduce sugar lacked specifics.

    Reaction Paper to “That Sugar Film”

    The movie was intriguing and very thought-provoking but I would not take
    everything that it says and suggests at face value. The concept of the dangers of
    hidden sugar in our foods and drinks is pretty interesting and the delivery of the
    movie is incredibly funny yet it still has some caveats to it. His approach to it, on
    the other hand, is kind of questionable since I would not consider his eating habits
    during the experiment of being healthy. He tends to go overboard with his
    exaggerations during some parts of the movie too. Still, this is a great movie and I
    would still recommend this to my friends.

    So with that, I will now go to discuss the things that I personally agree with in the
    film. For starters, I agree that the sugar content of the food products available in
    the market today is outrageous and that we are not mostly aware of this. Also
    that with how much we’ve gotten used to the sweetness overload in our culture,
    it’s easy for vegetables to be hated or to not be eaten often with me being one of
    the exceptions since I like eating vegetables. I also agree about the idea this gives
    about diet, that it does not involve decreasing or lessening the amount of food
    you eat but rather changing the components of what you’re eating to healthy
    foods. It was also nice that they noted that exercise helps with your diet and that
    they said it can be minimal.

    My criticisms on this movie, on the other hand, are numerous too but I’ll just give
    some of them. First, most of the experts who spoke in the duration of the film
    have little background shown during the entire movie, given that their opinions
    are crucial to the movie’s train of thought, which makes me unsure of their
    credibility. Second, the amount of food he ate every day for the duration of this
    experiment was mostly pure guesswork since it is impossible to determine the
    exact amount of food that is being eaten. Third, what happened to the lead actor
    during his experiment with regards to his health and it being related to the sugar
    intake he is subjecting himself is not in itself valid since there are other factors to
    consider too. And last, I felt that his recommendation at the end of the movie was
    lacking because nothing was said about how much sugar should be lessened in
    our daily diet.
