Movie Reviews

Spirituality and Practice - 10/10 by Frederic and Mary Ann BrussatA deeply human study of the Cambodian genocide and the brave survival of one little girl.
New Yorker - 10/10 by Richard BrodyThe Khmer Rouge's repressions and exactions are depicted fearsomely, but many of Jolie's images are postcard-pretty, and their emotional range depends mainly upon the child actors' tremulous and steadfast expressions.
Seattle Times - 10/10 by Soren AndersonJolie draws restrained, naturalistic performances from her all-Cambodian cast, particularly young Sareum Srey Moch.
RogerEbert.com - 10/10 by Matt Zoller SeitzAngelina Jolie's First They Killed My Father is far and away her best work as a director: a rare film about a national tragedy told through the eyes and mind of a child, and as fine a war movie as has ever been made.
The Seattle Times - 10/10 by Soren AndersenJolie draws restrained, naturalistic performances from her all-Cambodian cast, particularly young Sareum Srey Moch. There’s a stillness and a stoicism in her portrayal that makes her an unforgettable figure in this unforgettable movie.
Village Voice - 9/10 by Bilge EbiriThis is Jolie’s most accomplished work yet.
Movie Chambers - 9/10 by Paul ChambersA powerful, personal story of how one Cambodian family was impacted by the bloody reign of the Khmer Rouge.
Film Freak Central - 9/10 by Walter Chaw[First They Killed My Father] is a very beautiful film of horrific things happening in a garden of earthly delights.
Spokesman-Review (Washington) - 9/10 by Dan WebsterDirector [Angelina] Jolie documents all this with inordinate skill.
Alternate Ending - 9/10 by Tim BraytonCombines a frank look at the atrocities with fluid, chronologically ambiguous impressionism.
