Secret of Water (2015) Reviews

• Horrid Pseudoscience

  bennettjc612015-09-06

  I was seduced by the trailer, unfortunately. There is so much that could be legitimately said about the wonders of water. Instead, this is poorly produced piece highlighting the spiels of various non-scientists and non-thinkers about water. Check them out on google after you see the film. We learn that water has feelings, doesn't like right angles, can make pretty shapes (we knew that already from snowflakes). Is unique that it can present in liquid, solid, and gaseous forms!!!! At times this could have easily passed for parody.

• Worst, most biased, unscientific film I have ever seen.

  This film is hands down the worst "scientific" documentary I have ever seen. It plays 100% on the spiritual side of things while trying to make sense through B.S. "Science". This film tries to enact causation through correlation of totally unrelated subjects. It is totally assumatory without any real basis for their arguments. The practices in which they use to explain their claims are completely unreliable such as a time where water samples were taken in supposedly "untouched" waters without using gloves. I mean they used their bare hands to take these samples and tried passing it off as scientific discovery. In any real world situation where someone takes water samples, the sample must be rejected if a glove was not used to collect it. They talk about alkaline water in the body raising your pH in your blood to fight diseases instead of taking proper medicine when they don't even know about buffer solutions within the body to maintain a very narrow range of blood pH that keeps all people alive. I was at a showing of this film and someone asked one of the directors about buffer solutions in the body and she had no clue what they were talking about. Don't even get me started on the crystals. They claim proper crystal structure constitutes healthier water for humans without any sort of legitimate study on how the different water affects people. No one should give these people the pleasure of watching their film and if you do, do not take anything they say into actual consideration in your life.

  We all know the importance of water. Humans can live for several weeks without food, but not without water. The scientific research evidenced in this documentary gives further claims to the value and effect of water on our wellbeing & conversely our effect on the quality of our water supply. This film should be required viewing for ALL students. We take for granted the liquid life force found in water. The discussion of different states of water opens unto new ground; the ability of water to cleanse itself & regenerate leaves one in awe. One of the presenters, Dr. Larry Dossey, an internist, from Texas, is the respected author of many books. He has been active in the field of "energy medicine" and has a cameo appearance in this documentary. I have met him at several conferences & respect his opinion. I only wish some of the concepts could be explained in more detail, but then that would require an entire course. There is a lot of information in this film, in a short 77 minutes of time.

  This "scientific" movie is for everyone who is willing to believe anything without questioning or taking time to research: hurchgoers & Trump voters will love this pseudo nonsense. It always scares me to witness that people are willing to intake anything that makes them feel comfortable somehow... So sad really!
