Movie Reviews

Washington Post - 9/10 by John AndersonIf the movie is any indication, Chevron would have the public believe there was no Amazon at all -- something people might be willing to believe, were Berlinger not sticking Crude in their faces.
Philadelphia Inquirer - 9/10 by Steven ReaWhat's less clear, and more maddening, is how several generations of Ecuadorans have been left to live on toxic land, their health and livelihoods compromised, while lawyers file motions and counter-motions and blame is passed around.
Rolling Stone - 9/10 by Peter TraversHere’s a powerhouse of a documentary that makes you feel mad as hell and unwilling to take it anymore.
The New York Times - 9/10 by A.O. ScottAhead of us lie many more documentaries similar in tone and spirit to this one. We can hope that at least a few of them are as intelligently and artfully made.
San Francisco Chronicle - 8/10 by Walter AddiegoNo film could convey all the complexities of the case - what Crude does is air the plaintiffs' claims and show the lawyers at work.
New Orleans Times-Picayune - 8/10 by Mike ScottPart eco-doc, part legal-doc, it is a troubling, real story -- and a well-told one at that -- that is inspiring and infuriating all at once.
The Globe and Mail (Toronto) - 8/10 by Liam LaceyWhat makes Crude worthy of the overused term “epic” is the way the case symbolizes a host of contemporary issues: the iron-fistedness of multinational corporations; environmental despoliation; the disappearance of indigenous cultures; and the power of celebrity and the media to influence justice.
Boston Globe - 8/10 by Ty BurrSo, yes, something needs to be done, and if it takes Sting reuniting the Police in-concert to sing “sending out an SOS’’ on behalf of the plaintiffs (among other worthy causes), so be it.
Portland Oregonian - 8/10 by Stan HallCrude is only a progress report of a case that might last until well into the decade, the sordid details of which are still, pardon the pun, spilling out.
Austin Chronicle - 8/10 by Marjorie BaumgartenCrude's moving testimony and careful documentation make it hard to turn away from this issue. It will certainly remain in your mind the next time you stop for gas.
