The East is a very interesting flick about a group of eco-terrorists who commit large scale acts of sabotage against large corporations who pollute the environment.

The film is not very sympathetic towards them and for the most part tends to paint as villains people who a lot of the world might actually agree with, although perhaps not their methods. Instead the film through its main protagonist suggests that simply talking about these things will stop the same corporations from destroying the planet over and over again.

All in all a very interesting flick sure to raise a lot of discussion in your household, my only criticism of it was probably the casting of Ellen Page beside the tall lanky Alexander Skarsgård, at times it made Page look sort of like an angry puppet!
