In the beginning, the audience would be hard pressed to imagine how these men and what they do could have anything to do with one another. We start seeing the passion that directs them and the discipline that maintains them. Each man begins speaking, in specific terms, about his interests and how those interests relate to what he does professionally.It didn't take long before the editing delicately overlapped imagery and narration. As this happened, the connections between seemingly unrelated words and images surfaced and began dominating my experience of this film. As the men examined their own respective roles in society, much of what they say of themselves can be said of us all. Their stories become one. The big story is the story of life on Earth right now.I would also like to make special mention of the soundtrack. The music really straddles the line between playful and haunting. It seems to drive the film in a lot of ways and perfectly frames the subjects and their work.The men that are the subject of this documentary are endearing characters that aren't selling us anything. They only want to share with us some aspect of the world that has captured them. I saw this film in the theater and was unprepared; I was moved. This piece is not for everyone. Maybe I'm just easily inspired, maybe this is solid gold. If I'm easily inspired then good for me, if this is solid gold then you really ought to watch it. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars For anyone interested in Errol Morris or documentaries, a great find *by E***S on Reviewed in the United States on November 1, 2013* I love documentaries and the work of Errol Morris but had not seen this film. It is the first film in which Morris uses his invention, the interrotron which allows his subjects to speak looking directly at the camera. A topiary gardener, a hairless mole-rat specialist, lion tamer, and M.I.T robot builder seem like they wouldn't have anything in common. As this film unfolds, the common thread is revealed. Highly recommended. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful study of four men's life work *by B***E on Reviewed in the United States on October 1, 2002* Fast, Cheap and Out of Control is an engagingly intertwined documentary of how a topiary gardener, lion tamer, mole rat biologist and robot scientist attempt to interact with and understand the natural world around them. Errol Morris weaves the different stories together, both narratively and visually, in a manner that at first seems chaotic. Ultimately, however, the film makes broad and deep connections between these very different endeavors.Fast, Cheap and Out of Control is often reviewed -- and marketed -- as an examination of eccentrics. While Morris does play up personality quirks, particularly of the two scientists, it is not the central theme of the movie. Perhaps it is the passion that these four men hold for their life work that comes across as so unusual to people --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/117939954-fast-cheap-and-out-of-control](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/117939954-fast-cheap-and-out-of-control) --- *Product available on Desertcart Great Britain* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-04-23*
