Seems like he has a problem with the final edit of the movie and not anything specific about GMO. This is a growing problem with documentaries where the filmmakers claim a certain angle to get people to participate but reveal a corporate angle in the edit.

> Americans have been eating genetically engineered food for 18 years, and as supporters of the technology are quick to point out, we don’t seem to be dropping like flies. But they miss the point. The fight over labeling G.M. food is not foremost about food safety or environmental harm, legitimate though these questions are. The fight is about the power of Big Food. Monsanto has become the symbol of everything people dislike about industrial agriculture: corporate control of the regulatory process; lack of transparency (for consumers) and lack of choice (for farmers); an intensifying rain of pesticides on ever-expanding monocultures; and the monopolization of seeds, which is to say, of the genetic resources on which all of humanity depends.

Largely he's been proven correct as GMO crops from Monsanto have has negative biological, legal and financial consequences on neighboring crops and water supplies. https://cases.open.ubc.ca/monsanto-and-terminator-seeds/#:~:... GMO crops from other sources don't have the same problems.
