"But blame, if weâre going to use that word, shouldnât fall on his shoulders, as the filmmaker does an admirable job and keeps things simple as they should be." Why does anybody need to be 'blamed' for a film? Why can't you just explore what the film does and – if you don't care for it – why it isn't successful? Why would you even use the term 'blame' (better suited for a case of negligence) in a movie review, anyway? Why should people be blamed for making a film you didn't like?

Even though this movie isn't out yet, it is resonating with us Pennsylvanian's who've seen our beautiful forests and farmlands, and even our neighborhoods turned into industrial parks by out of state companies hiring out of state workers. Sure, some leasers have made some money, but not quite the amount promised by the industry, and they certainly did'nt tell us about the polluted aquafers, flaming tap water, truck traffic, millions of gallons of toxic frack water left in the ground, and exploding compressor stations.
