Movie Reviews

Filmcritic.com - 9/10 by Chris CabinColored fully within the lines and with scant few moments of fascination
MovieMartyr.com - 9/10 by Jeremy HeilmanBlind Mountain, the second film from fledgling Chinese filmmaker Li Yang, demonstrates many of the same qualities that made his first, Blind Shaft, one of the most promising directorial debuts of recent years.
New York Times - 8/10 by Manohla DargisBlind Mountain is a reminder that art sometimes keeps the truth alive far better than the news.
New York Post - 8/10 by V.A. MusettoA stinging and frightening indictment of mainland China.
Chicago Tribune - 8/10 by Tasha RobinsonLi’s story is lean and economical, but deeply harrowing, as Xuemei--sympathetically played by debuting performer Huang Lu, the only classically trained actor in a cast of non-professionals--clings to her courage and tries again and again to escape.
Salt Lake Tribune - 8/10 by Sean P. MeansLi's spare script works well with his choice to employ non-actors.
Reverse Shot - 6/10 by Leo GoldsmithWith its complex (and, at times, deeply problematic) intersection of an educated outsider with the stubborn realities of rural life, Blind Mountain explicitly harkens back to those classic works from the Fifth Generation of Chinese filmmakers, like Yellow
Boxoffice Magazine - 6/10 by Ed ScheidBlind Mountain becomes a tense struggle of would-be escape.
User Review - 10/10 by Joe LThis film is prohibited in PRC. It's really reflect part of the negative part of Chinese. Human Trafikking is common in PRC. Xue Mei is lucky since she's only become other's wife. Many children are beaten as disabled and become beggar. Some even become prostitute. I have heard this from news.
User Review - 10/10 by Dimitris SSecond part of an unofficial trilogy by Yang Li,the shadowy prelude is moving into a lavishing tale of filthy spiritual tone!Should I repeat that?Better watch this exploding torture yourselves,the torment of unfair treatment,aye,where the mountains fear to roar..
