| Spirituality and PracticeFrederic and Mary Ann BrussatA spiritually abundant documentary on the life and work of a humble rural seer. |
| The New York TimesBen KenigsbergIt’s a pleasure to spend 80 minutes in Mr. Berry’s company. |
| The Hollywood ReporterJohn DeForeSticking mostly to one corner of the turf Berry has staked out, this unusual and quite beautiful documentary seeks to connect with him by getting to know the land and those who work it near the author's Kentucky home. |
| VarietyJoe LeydonThe documentary is too tepid to generate anything like excitement or outrage, and elicits admiration more for its intentions than for its execution. |
| RogerEbert.comNell MinowIn its brief, 80-minute running time, Look & See: A Portrait of Wendell Berry encompasses two different films, and neither one of them is, in fact, a portrait of the poet/novelist/farmer/activist Wendell Berry. Neither one of them, despite sincere intentions, is very good. |
| Austin ChronicleMarjorie BaumgartenUltimately, Look & See seems to have many objectives, yet accomplishes none of them satisfactorily. |
| Village VoiceAlan ScherstuhlHere, as Berry warns, the imagination is limited by the camera. In a world in which I couldn’t buy Berry’s New Collected Poems, I might make an effort to see this again someday, with my eyes shut. |
| Solzy at the MoviesDanielle SolzmanLook & See: A Portrait of Wendell Berry celebrates the life of the acclaimed Kentucky poet, teacher, farmer, and activist, Wendell Berry. |
| Film InquiryAlexandra HepworthAny advocate for the environment and sustainable farming would enjoy Dunn's documentary. |
| CinapseEd TravisLaura Dunn's The Seer: A Portrait of Wendell Berry, brings a level of profundity in kind with the work and the life that inspired it. |
