5.0 out of 5 stars A thinking movie
Reviewed in the United States on May 11, 2013

I enjoyed this movie. It was about a corporation called Global coming in to a small town to buy up land rights for natural gas deposits. Many issues were covered such as farming as a dying industry, what part does tradition and heritage play in the modern scene of survival, what is fracking and the risks involved, what are the ethical responsibilities of disclosure, plus the usual themes of big business as the bad guy and the salesman who will say anything to make a sale. In the end we all answer to our conscience, so there was not right or wrong conclusions given, just open ended perspectives to make you think how you would respond in the shoes of the salesman or the farmer or the town leader. I thought it presented several perspectives well, but since Hollywood is usually against Big Business, there was a clear bias again the corporation. I rented it for 48 hours and watched it twice (the 2nd time with my husband). Not too many movies you can watch back to back like that. I would see it again.

5.0 out of 5 stars What is the fracking truth?
Reviewed in the United States on February 21, 2014

Sometimes it takes a good movie to portray the dangers of some of the new technologies that constitute the current bent of the "land". This movie doesn't disappoint and with Matt Damon staring, the dangers we face in fracking, when taken into account, are very destructible of our most precious resource, our precios land. If you think fracking is a great way to offset our dependence on foreign supplies, think again and move our country in the right direction, think again. We have the technology to do better but the big money cartels in the US and elsewhere would have you think differently and simply ignore the dangers. The "Promised Land" is a great movie describing both sides of this issue. When is the last time we have heard about fracking - well from the bully pulpit and that's all good news. The choice is ours to make and this movie is a good first choice that illustratively demonstrates that we need to change the direction we are heading for, before we lose our "Promised Land".

3.0 out of 5 stars Somewhat Entertaining Fracking Fiction
Reviewed in the United States on April 26, 2013

Ignoring the Hollywood bandwagon riding of environmental concerns about fracking and evil greedy corporations, I enjoyed this film for its story and interesting twist at its conclusion. The story was about farmers in a small economically depressed town and their need or desire for money beyond what they could earn from farming. To keep their farms and to maintain or improve their way of life, many are tempted by two marketers from a gas company to lease their land for gas exploration and drilling for a per acre rent of $2,000 and a negotiated percentage of up to 18% of the revenue generated from any gas produced. Thus with an incalculable probability of becoming wealthy, leasing their land was initially viewed as an attractive proposition until a retired engineer and local high school science teacher pointed out environmental consequences of drilling, including problems associated with fracking. A seemingly extroverted environmentalist shows up in town at the same time telling horror stories about fracking and how it caused the contamination of his family's farm rendering it unfit for farming and animal habitation. He distributed flyers and staked yards with posters, both with pictures of dead cows as evidence to support his story. The rest of the film details the battle of the marketers versus the science teacher and environmentalist for the hearts of the farmers. A crooked politician was thrown in for good measure. I will not give away the ending.

While I enjoyed the story, acting and filming, I could not help becoming a bit annoyed with the misrepresentations by those who had an interest in the specific outcome of whether drilling would be accepted or rejected. Such misrepresentations from both sides were sometimes presented as facts giving the impression that the viewer could learn something about both sides of the argument. This may have been necessary for the story to appear to be a reasonable discussion of the dilemma facing those with a decision concerning the lease of their land, but it was far from an objective or informative presentation. Those who "feel" they have learned something from this Hollywood fictionalization should consider whether they "think" they have learned anything as it may be difficult to avoid being unduly influenced in either direction by viewing the film. I only add the caution because several other reviewers seem to have a misplaced confidence in the objectivity of Hollywood. I recognize that fracking has some level of risk that must be evaluated by those taking the risk, but also that corporations cannot by nature be evil or greedy. Evilness and greed are uniquely human attributes that can apply to all of us in varying degrees.

On the whole I enjoyed Promised Land for the story and found it worth the rental price for a couple of hours of quiet entertainment at home. My enjoyment would probably have been diminished by purchasing the DVD or tickets to view it in a theater.

5.0 out of 5 stars An Important Film To See : Matt You Are As Good As It Gets.
Reviewed in the United States on July 12, 2013

An enjoyable watch but more importantly brings to the screen an issue that we MUST understand to the utmost.
Filmed in Pennsylvania, seemingly one of the hardest hit states by Fracking.
painfully, my home state.

This, along with "Gasland" and "Gasland 2" should show you all you need to know about the undeniable horrors of Fracking.
The film is an education on human & earthly injustice -- one to which we can not afford to turn a blind eye towards any longer.

Matt & John Krasinski, who I first grew to love in "It's Complicated" both produce and act (wonderfully, as always) in the film.
and are teamed with Director Gus Van Sant of "Good Will Hunting" fame.

A winning group of people!
fantastic, thought-provoking film.
a mixture of good-heartedness, corporate greed, and folks just plain trying to survive.
illustrates the complexity of the issue and the filthiness around the way the game is played.

We need COUNTLESS more like this one!

This is a very clever film, echoing my own sentiments entirely! It shows how very big companies can manipulate public opinion to achieve the result they want with no thought for the welfare of the community. In this case fracking is at first welcomed by the country town but then doubts creep in fed by an alleged conservationist. What happens is something we should all be aware of.

5.0 out of 5 stars Eine Geschichte mit Sinn, Charme und einer unerwarteten Wendung!
Reviewed in Germany on February 16, 2014

Ich habe mir diesen Film soeben mit meiner Familie angesehen. Wir sind quer durch die Bank sehr positiv überrascht von diesem Streifen, der so ganz ohne Action oder Liebesgedudel auskommt.

Die Charaktere sind liebenswert, die Konflikte glaubwürdig und die ganze Sache rund ums Fracking ist sehr authentisch und gut recherchiert. Zwischendurch gibt es auch richtig witzige Szenen, vor allem die kleinen Sticheleien zwischen Matt Damon und Frances McDormand haben uns allen ein Lächeln aufs Gesicht gezaubert.

Der Film ist schlichtweg gelungen. Alles wirkt durchdacht, keine Szene wirkt aufgesetzt. Eventuell hätte man die Beziehung zwischen Frances McDormand und dem sympathischen Verkäufer noch vertiefen können, aber das sind diese kleinen Side-Plots, die einfach dazugehören.

Ganz besonders hervorzuheben ist der wundervolle Soundtrack. Melodische, angenehme Klänge untermalen die ländliche Kulisse.

Man ist sehr gespannt wie sich der Konflikt zwischen den zwei Organisationen entwickelt und am Ende lösen wird - bis es dann zu einer sehr unerwarteten Wendung kommt, mit der wir alle Mann nicht gerechnet hätten. Sehr gut durchdacht und geschickt eingebettet. Sie ergibt sogar Sinn, wenn man gedanklich nochmal Revue passieren lässt.

Fazit: Ein liebevoll gefilmter, gut durchdachter Film über ein Thema, mit dem wir uns als Familie noch nie so intensiv beschäftigt haben. Der Film bietet somit auch viel Wissenswertes.
