Plot summary

From the discovery of huge oil fields off the coast of Scotland to their mass privatisation during the Thatcher era, The Oil Machine highlights how oil became the invisible engine driving UK economic and public policy. In the wake of COP26 in Glasgow, demand for climate action has become a key societal concern and the pressure on both oil companies and the government continues to mount. Bringing together a wide range of voices, from industry executives and economists to young activists, Davie offers a visceral and thought-provoking interrogation into how this insidious machine might be dismantled.

Well Inensioned, but porly exicuted.

This documentary covers the Oil Industry as it relates to the way it was implemented in Great Britain concerning the North Sea.

It covers the uneven and poor management of the sectors of the North Sea. The way the government, in the 70's to the present, prioritize financial gains over environmental concerns or energy independence.

A lot of information is contained in the film and well developed, but the production is so flat and uninspiring. It will take viewer all the concentration and desire of a college student pulling an all-nighter to pass an exam on the history of belt buckles in relation of the development of pants.

It's all in there, but next to no one well get anything out of it.

Brilliant Film

Well researched and extremely well documented. The real problem with our society today is exposed as the enmeshment of the big oil corporations with our political bodies and therefore their control over our society. It was a chilling and frightening watch but so important that we, the population know who really are controlling our society.

I would have liked to have more information on how this enmeshment could be disabled and how we as a society regain control.

I was shocked to learn that the North sea oil is not for the UK's own use but the whole area is carved up and licenses sold to other countries drilling companies.

Change needs to happen and this film is going to be part of ensuring that change happens.

Exposes the history of North Sea Oil and how it is now.

Shows what we need to know about the history of North Sea Oil. How badly managed it has all been and how those who manage these things don't really care about people or the environment. Especially the ocean. The arrogance of man and the greed. It breaks my heart really to watch it all. I know that I consume the same as the next person what comes out of all this. I have benefited. But these people knew the fullness of what is behind it all from the very start. I don't appreciate how long this review needs to be. Why do you require us to write a full essay on it. That is bad manners. I dmire those who have committed and so I will too.
