Movie Reviews

Film Journal International - 10/10 by Daniel EaganDuma offers a compelling look at a world filled with beauty and wonder, one that children as well as their parents deserve to see.
New York Daily News - 9/10 by Jami BernardThe same audience that loves "March of the Penguins" will eat up this beautifully told, gorgeously shot story of a grieving boy trying to return his pet cheetah to the wilds of South Africa.
Boston Globe - 9/10 by Ty BurrAn exquisitely filmed, emotionally transfixing epic about a white South African boy's journey to return his pet cheetah to the wild.
L.A. Weekly - 9/10 by Ella TaylorA drama of uncommon beauty and emotional resonance.
Chicago Tribune - 9/10 by Michael WilmingtonDuma, at its best, reminded me exactly why we loved movies as children: because they told stories like this, with images just as rhapsodically colorful and exciting.
Los Angeles Times - 9/10 by Kenneth TuranSimultaneously innocent and sophisticated, this honestly emotional fable shows why every Ballard film -- and his last was released almost a decade ago -- is a special event.
Entertainment Weekly - 9/10 by Owen GleibermanBallard connects you to the beauteous inner calm of the wild, even if audiences today are looking for a lot less calm.
Minneapolis Star Tribune - 9/10 by Jeff Strickler[Director] Ballard's dime-store philosophizing gets schmaltzy, but the emotions seem heartfelt. And as he has done in earlier movies, he incorporates some spectacular backdrops.
Rochester Democrat and Chronicle - 9/10 by Jack Garner... a beautifully photographed journey that will thrill youngsters and strongly engage adults.
Washington Post - 9/10 by Philip KennicottDocumentary makers struggle for this effect -- a feeling for the land that is both grand and unsentimental. The makers of Duma, a fable fit for children, have found it.
