Movie Reviews

Variety - 9/10 by Guy LodgeThough the film comprehensively details the political and economic subtleties of what it declares “the crime of the century,” its narrative remains primarily a human-focused one, highlighting the stories of selected steadfast victims, as well as the heroic movers and shakers in the struggle.
Eye for Film - 9/10 by Amber WilkinsonShowing a remarkably firm hand for a first-time director, Gray skilfully guides us through a sea of statistics concerning those dying from the disease and archive footage and recollections of the time, while building a cast-iron case against Big Pharma.
Film Threat - 9/10 by Mark BellWatch the film if and when you can. Hopefully the information in this film will reach the masses and the disgust at the situation, still ongoing, will prompt true change.
Salon.com - 9/10 by Andrew O'HehirI hope viewers don’t come away from this essential documentary with the belief that Western AIDS activists in general turned their backs on poor black people just as soon as they got medicine that worked. That isn’t remotely fair. Blame for the African AIDS holocaust falls on the Big Pharma companies who put patents and profits ahead of human life, and on all of us who let them get away with it.
Scotsman - 8/10 by Alistair Harkness[An] insightful and quietly angry documentary about the way "Big Pharma" profiteering has been responsible for the preventable deaths of millions of impoverished people.
Observer (UK) - 8/10 by Philip FrenchThe film is a testament to human decency and a damning indictment of laissez-faire capitalism.
Little White Lies - 8/10 by Rebecca EllisAn illuminating angle on a forgotten crisis.
Total Film - 8/10 by George BassGray’s technique is effective, catching the moment one Indian scientist, Yusuf Hamied, stood up and got the moral ball rolling.
Empire Magazine - 8/10 by David ParkinsonAngry, impassionate filmmaking that demands - and deserves - serious answers.
City Press (South Africa) - 8/10 by Grethe KempUpsetting, poignant, infuriating... it shows the very worst of humanity - how privileged people in the West simply just didn't give a damn about millions upon millions of people dying in Africa. This is compulsory watching.
