Movie Reviews

Village Voice - 9/10 by Diana ClarkeMonk With a Camera hints at answers, but imposes nothing. Like a good photograph, or a wise abbot, it only presents the evidence and allows us to arrive at truth.
Variety - 8/10 by Dennis HarveyClearly regarded with great affection by his mentors (as well as supporters like Richard Gere), Vreeland makes very pleasant company... The directors adopt a similarly unpretentious, bemused tone in following him around.
RogerEbert.com - 8/10 by Godfrey CheshireSo, while the film doesn’t delve into the doctrines of Tibetan Buddhism, it does provide a sense of its outward life in the images of the people and rituals of the monastery to which Nicky Vreeland has devoted so much love and care.
Seattle Weekly - 8/10 by Robert HortonMonk With a Camera has a placid air about it, an air of acceptance, perhaps. That it embodies a certain Buddhist calm is appropriate, although it doesn't make for the most exciting movie-watching experience.
PopMatters - 7/10 by Cynthia FuchsMonk With a Camera suggests that this conflict can be more expansive, that art and communication, ego and compassion might shape all kinds of lives.
Epoch Times - 7/10 by Joe BendelFor a film so focused on the spiritual life, Camera is surprisingly lively.
The Stranger (Seattle, WA) - 7/10 by Kathy FennessyThere are only so many wealthy white guys who chuck it all for life as a Buddhist monk.
Spectrum Culture - 6/10 by Pat PaduaMonk with a Camera is a watchable film with an amiable subject, but it raises far more questions than it is troubled to ask.
The Dissolve - 4/10 by Charles BramescoToo frequently, Monk With A Camera feels like a character study with no interest in studying its character.
Los Angeles Times - 4/10 by Betsy SharkeyUltimately the documentary falls short of explaining why Vreeland not only made his choice but maintained it.
