Leave your thoughts about The Act of Killing.
| NPRBob MondelloFilmmaker Joshua Oppenheimer is obviously treading on dicey moral ground here, empowering killers to tell their story when they've never been called to account for the barbarism that brought them to power. |
| NewsdayRafer Guzman"The Act of Killing" works on so many levels -- psychodrama, horror movie, Orwellian nightmare, Poe story -- that sifting through your reactions could take days. |
| Scene-Stealers.comEric Melin... a fascinating exploration into the ways that guilt can manifest itself ... a mind-boggling two hours. |
| East Bay ExpressKelly VanceThe Absurd-Banal-Hideous-O-Meter hits eleven and breaks. |
| HollywoodChicago.comBrian TallericoThis film is jaw-dropping. It's a must-see. |
| Chicago Sun-TimesBill Stamets[A] stunning “documentary of the imagination." |
| Movie HabitRobert DenersteinA powerful look at an Indonesian atrocity |
| MLive.comJohn SerbaOppenheimer captures dozens of shocking, candid moments... My initial reaction was disbelief. |

| 3AWJim SchembriA truly haunting documentary masterpiece. |
