Movie Reviews

Boston Globe - 9/10 by Ty BurrSelf-consciously poetic and shot within a luscious inch of its life, the film's also an engrossing heartbreaker: a family saga that spans continents, political administrations, and decades of travail to arrive at a harder, wiser place.
New York Magazine (Vulture) - 9/10 by David EdelsteinThe film is lyrical, expansive, unbearably beautiful.
New York Post - 8/10 by V.A. MusettoA powerful account of how the American dream became a nightmare for one Laotian family.
Village Voice - 8/10 by J. HobermanImpressionistic and lyrical, as well as somber and gripping, The Betrayal conveys a ceaseless flow. It's as if the filmmaker has opened a window onto a parallel world traveling beside our own.
Salon.com - 8/10 by Andrew O'HehirMore than anything, The Betrayal is a cinematic essay about family and loss and home, one that's ironic and elegiac in tone and requires some patience.
Variety - 7/10 by Scott FoundasThough an admirable attempt to allow the characters to tell their own story in their own voices, docu may be a bit too freely associative, as it becomes difficult at times to identify individual characters... Picture's second half, which proceeds in a more linear fashion, is resolutely gripping.
Entertainment Weekly - 7/10 by Owen GleibermanThe past-and-present layering is a lot more resonant -- and less sketchy -- than the film's theme of ''betrayal,'' both familial and governmental.
Los Angeles Times - 7/10 by Sheri LindenExploring a Lao family's experience during and since the Vietnam War, the film chronicles the treacheries of geopolitics and the upheaval of exile.
The New York Times - 7/10 by A.O. ScottThe result is imperfect, but its roughness is entirely consistent with the way the filmmakers understand the traumatic experiences of displacement, loss and deprivation.
User Review - 10/10 by MaciekK.What an amazing film. Usually I feel uncomfortable with this level of intimacy in a documentary. I think it's a credit to Ellen Kuras and Thavi that intimate and heart rending revelations are presented naturally without a hint of voyeurism. There seems to be a bond between them and Ellen and the family which allows for a seamless insight into the families experience. I am an immigrant too, but arrived under very different and privileged conditions. Nevertheless, there are so many universal truths, feelings, and experiences depicted in the film that will resonante with anyone.
