Movie Reviews

The A.V. Club - 8/10 by Alison WillmoreIt's an exhilarating, though unfocused, look at how the country reached its tipping point, one that feels unfiltered in ways both good and bad. It's a collection of striking images rather than a considered whole.
rec.arts.movies.reviews - 8/10 by Louis ProyectAn absolutely breathtaking and politically committed chronicle of the events that continue to shake the Middle East. Documentary film-making at its pinnacle.
The Hollywood Reporter - 8/10 by Frank ScheckInstantly proves itself an invaluable historical document. Shot verite-style with no narration, soundtrack or other embellishments, Tahrir: Liberation Square simply depicts the events of late January and early February 2011 with a vital immediacy.
Slant Magazine - 8/10 by Bill WeberA direct-cinema document of the Cairo protests that toppled Mubarak, Stefano Savona's film doesn't pretend that Egypt's resolution has yet won a lasting victory.
The New York Times - 7/10 by Nicolas RapoldFar from imposing clarity on the historic gatherings, Tahrir embraces the thrill and uncertainty of popular action. In some ways resembling old-fashioned vérité, Stefano Savona's chronicle aims to plunge you into the crowds and clamor.
Village Voice - 7/10 by Michelle OrangeThe variations are many, but the theme is as consistent as the crowd that grows and strengthens throughout Savona's inside, traditional, vérité portrait of the uprising.
Film Journal International - 6/10 by David NohStirringly in-your-face documentary about the Arab Spring revolution is a priceless historical, human document.
Time Out - 6/10 by David FearThe result may occasionally be more of a journalistic scrapbook than a Wisemanian all-points portrait, but the impact of seeing such unvarnished public activism in the raw can't be overestimated.
Gay City News - 6/10 by Steve EricksonThe film avoids all the clichés of made-for-TV documentaries. Savona never appears on camera, supplies voice-over, or interviews his subjects directly. Instead, he lets Egyptian protesters speak for themselves.
