Movie Reviews

Newsday - 10/10 by Gene SeymourThe Camden 28 not only examines the animating forces of protest, but also the nature of betrayal, forgiveness and, ultimately, compassion.
TV Guide - 9/10 by Ken FoxTimes have changed, but many of the questions remain the same: How far would you go to stop a war you felt was unjust? Would you break the law if you felt that law to be by nature unlawful?
Cinema Crazed - 9/10 by Felix Vasquez Jr.If anything it also shows that dissent is a far gone notion in our modern society...
rec.arts.movies.reviews - 8/10 by Louis ProyectSuperlative documentary about 28 members of the Catholic left who defied the war machine in 1971--with plenty of relevance to the contemporary struggle to end the war in Iraq.
The A.V. Club - 8/10 by Nathan RabinThough the filmmaking is pedestrian, The Camden 28's timeless truths come through with resounding power.
New York Magazine/Vulture - 8/10 by David EdelsteinThe Camden 28 is slapdash: more talking heads, reunion footage with the mother reading from her own testimony, newscasts of the day. But the editing supplies some urgency, and the subjects remain radiant yet down-to-earth--too good-humored to be beatific.
New York Times - 8/10 by Matt Zoller SeitzScene for scene, The Camden 28 is a brilliant merger of political outrage and filmmaking chops, and the most suspenseful movie in theaters right now.
Reel.com - 8/10 by Timothy KnightA vivid and impassioned chronicle of unwavering moral courage under extreme duress.
Salon.com - 8/10 by Andrew O'HehirNot exactly blazing cinema, but intellectually riveting.
Chicago Reader - 7/10 by J.R. JonesThe video lapses into self-congratulation near the end, as many of the principals reunite for a 2002 retrospective, but for the most part this is a powerful tale of conscience, betrayal, and forgiveness.
