Brilliant and touching
This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.
Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
I couldn't watch the full documentary. It makes me sick to know this is a legal business! How can you stand there with a smile on your face while the mother is begging for her baby. Selfish and ignorant! And shame on the people who run this disgusting business! Just like the puppy mills! Those poor monkeys living out their lives in cages in someone's backyard shed, and then to have their babies taken from them! This should be a documentary on the horrors of this industry, and not giving air time to people who can't see past their selfish needs! Absolutely heartbreaking. Wish this would have focused on the negative implications this business has on the animals.
