Customer Reviews
Dirty!
Factually accurate. Quite exciting and inspiring considering the topic. It even manages genuine humor, which I didn't expect. There are a couple of very short 'fruity' sections but overall its a high quality production with a lot of heart that covers really important subject matter. It really changes the way you think about soil and its role in our world. Nothing political about this. As the film suggests it is simply the juxtaposition of survival versus decay. Highly recommended.
Highly educational
The subject matter is more important than people know. Well done movie and informative.
Dirt: Down to Earth
Dirt! The Movie details the significance of soil from the local level to the global scale. Informative without being too technical. Shows you the good and the bad and for the most part is not preachy and lets you make your own judgments. 80 minutes well spent.
