Movie Reviews

HollywoodChicago.com - 10/10 by Brian TallericoEasily one of the best documentaries of the year, this riveting, haunting piece of work fits perfectly into Herzog's resume as one of our most important living filmmakers.
St. Louis Post-Dispatch - 10/10 by Calvin WilsonInto the Abyss makes a strong case for the inhumanity of capital punishment, regardless of the crime or the criminal.
Financial Times - 10/10 by Nigel AndrewsWhen Tolstoy said all unhappy families are unhappy in their own ways, perhaps he was thinking of Texas. But even he reckoned without the rich, extraordinary complexities of unhappiness chronicled in Herzog's film.
eFilmCritic.com - 10/10 by Peter SobczynskiA film that will make anyone who sees it actually sit and contemplate their position at length, regardless of their current stance on the subject.
San Francisco Chronicle - 10/10 by Amy BiancolliHerzog, as ever, is obsessed most of all with human nature: Into the Abyss explores our deepest urges to love, and live, and kill.
Chicago Sun-Times - 10/10 by Roger EbertInto the Abyss may be the saddest film Werner Herzog has ever made. It regards a group of miserable lives, and in finding a few faint glimmers of hope only underlines the sadness.
The Aristocrat - 10/10 by Adam RossThis is humane, fascinating documentary filmmaking that is willing to confront insurmountable issues. And as is the case with most true crime material: truth is stranger than fiction.
Associated Press - 9/10 by Christy LemireRegardless of your own stance on the death penalty, it's impossible not to be shaken by the senseless loss depicted in "Into the Abyss," the overwhelming sadness, but also the possibility of spiritual redemption.
Toronto Star - 9/10 by Peter HowellHerzog is pursuing no agenda with Into the Abyss, despite his opposition to extreme judicial measures. He's seeking to answer the question of why people kill, especially in a situation such as this where the reason for the murders was so meaningless.
NPR.org - 9/10 by Ian BuckwalterHerzog unforgettably shows how when you pull tight the straps on men who've lain down to die, it leaves a mark.
