Movie Reviews

Arkansas Democrat-Gazette - 9/10 by Philip Martin... a documentary with the limited but entirely honorable mission of commemorating the life and sacrifice of Navy Lt. Michael P. Murphy, a Navy SEAL who died in a firefight in the mountains of eastern Afghanistan in June 2005.
Shared Darkness - 9/10 by Brent SimonA moving chronicle of some of the traits that should be more widely venerated in a media and pop cultural landscape too driven by the elevation of the trivial.
Washington Free Beacon - 8/10 by Sonny BunchThe story of Lt. Michael P. Murphy's life doesn't need to be hyped, and Murph: The Protector does a good job of staying out of its way.
McClatchy-Tribune News Service - 8/10 by Roger MooreWe’re reminded not just of sacrifice, but of those to whom service is a genuine calling and what that bandied-about word “hero” really means.
Washington Post - 8/10 by Sean O’ConnellThe challenge for any filmmaker wanting to convey the personal tales of our nation’s armed forces likely lies in finding a narrative as compelling, relatable and sentimental as the one told in Murph: The Protector.
The New York Times - 8/10 by Daniel M. GoldMurph: The Protector reminds us of the valor expended on distant front lines and the holes left at home.
Village Voice - 7/10 by Nick SchagerA one-note hagiography, no matter how convincing and affecting its portrait of unimpeachable courage.
Variety - 6/10 by David ChuteThe serviceable documentary Murph: The Protector could hardly fail to be an emotionally potent experience.
The Hollywood Reporter - 6/10 by Frank ScheckBringing a much needed personal perspective to a war that has claimed thousands of American lives, the film nonetheless suffers from a hagiographic quality that, from everything we hear expressed about its self-effacing subject, would have disturbed even him.
Slant Magazine - 4/10 by Rob HumanickOne wonders if the filmmakers ever asked themselves who their film was intended for, or if it was at least a consciously self-serving effort from the outset.
