Leave your thoughts about Joshua: Teenager vs. Superpower.
| TheDivaReview.comDiva VelezA remarkable story of David vs. Goliath come to life. Important and inspiring for these times, to see that even in the face of overwhelming odds, everyday teenagers made change possible by forcing one of the mightiest nations on the planet to take notice. |
| Bangkok PostKanin SrimaneekulrojWhile the results of the movement are a foregone conclusion, it's hard not to admire the courage of Wong and his group of friends. |
| Common Sense MediaBarbara ShulgasserDocu shows brave teen taking on oppressive government. |
| TheWrapSam FragosoThis is a film of highs and lows; there is no middle ground, no moment of silence, reflection, or introspection. It's like watching a prospective candidate give a mannered and rehearsed 80-minute speech on the campaign trail. |
| RogerEbert.comMatt FagerholmJoshua: Teenager vs. Superpower is not a great film on the order of Nanfu Wang’s “Hooligan Sparrow” or Alison Klayman’s “Ai Weiwei: Never Sorry,” both essential profiles of muckraking activists whistleblowing against government corruption in China, but it does have an equally great story to tell. |
| The GuardianGwilym MumfordTeenager vs Superpower does a solid job of contextualising this larger ideological battle, with talking heads and archive footage, but it’s always clear that the focus here is Wong. |
| Los Angeles TimesMichael RechtshaffenDirector Piscatella maintains an engaging grip on his unassuming subject’s ascendancy. |
| The Hollywood ReporterDuane ByrgeJoshua: Teenager vs. Super Power is actually a rousing documentary on a youth movement against, essentially, educational brainwashing. |
| VarietyDennis HarveyPiscatella and editor Matthew Sultan have shaped the kind of exciting you-are-there narrative that captures the feeling of underdog “naive” idealism transforming into a game-changing popular movement. |
| The New York TimesKen JaworowskiAmid the fight, there’s a sense of hope as we watch one tough kid turning into one tough man. With luck, that will lead to a sequel. |
