Bag It (2010)
Sarcastic, Simplistic and Unconvincing
This is an issue I actually care a lot about and I had high hopes for it. Sadly, it's just weak. There are a lot of really powerful arguments in favor of their thesis, they just fail to explore any of them. After decades of batting this issue around, the back and forth has pushed both sides to find better arguments. They include only the weakest points in favor of a ban and pretend that the other side is all villains and morons. He doesn't even address the simple, obvious counterpoints and comes across like he has the most naive understanding of the subject. The on-the-street interviews don't even include people who are indifferent or in favor of plastic for purely selfish reasons and just don't care. He doesn't even address the massive amount of plastic that is mandated for public health (bet 2020 was quite the shock for him).
