Movie Reviews

Chicago Tribune - 10/10 by Kelley L. CarterThis is the kind of film that doesn’t end after the credits roll, and it’s a gold-star example for what a documentary should do: inspire.
TV Guide Magazine - 9/10 by Ken FoxMore than any previous film on the subject, Braun's documentary offers an answer to a common question, perfectly phrased and answered by Cheadle himself: "What can I do? More than nothing. A lot more than nothing."
Seattle Times - 9/10 by Moira MacDonaldBoth important and engrossing, devastating yet inspiring.
Los Angeles Daily News - 9/10 by Bob StraussMuch of the film plays like a static lecture, and a repetitive one as well.
Portland Oregonian - 8/10 by Marc MohanIf the presence of Cheadle and his handsome pal George Clooney can entice otherwise resistant viewers to learn about the ongoing travesty in western Sudan, then Darfur Now has done its job.
Chicago Sun-Times - 8/10 by Roger EbertIt is not a compelling documentary (too much exposition, not enough on-the-spot reality), but it is instructive and disturbing.
USA Today - 8/10 by Claudia PuigBy showing the struggles and efforts of about half a dozen people, it puts a human face on the tragedy.
Miami Herald - 8/10 by Connie OgleDespite the fact that the film is not graphic, you won't want to watch Darfur Now over dinner with your family. But you probably should anyway.
Boston Globe - 8/10 by Ty BurrSlick, impassioned, and guardedly upbeat, Ted Braun's film is a morale booster aimed at US audiences rather than the 2.5 million displaced Sudanese tribespeople whose villages have been destroyed and families slaughtered. That we need a pick-me-up more than they do is pathetic, but there you are.
Seattle Post-Intelligencer - 8/10 by William ArnoldThe kind of movie you're glad somebody had the guts to make, but you don't really want to endure.
