Leave your thoughts about The Emerald Forest.
| Washington PostPaul AttanasioThis long, wheezy tribute to the Noble Savage has some pretty scenery, but not much else -- it's not a movie, it's a National Geographic special. |
| Spirituality and PracticeFrederic and Mary Ann BrussatConveys the ancient wisdom of the primitives who relish dream time and have found a way to dignify the different stages of life with meaningful rituals |
| Capital Times (Madison, WI)Rob ThomasThe execution is a little sedate, but the idea sticks with you. |
| eFilmCritic.comBrian MckayJust as he did with the British countryside in EXCALIBUR, Boorman gives the deep jungles of South America an almost dreamlike, magical quality |
| User ReviewTom EThis is what happens when the Amazon forest is destroyed |
| User ReviewTerri HStill an unsurpassed exploration of the clash of indigenous people and the encroachment upon their lands by the so called developed world. Excellent production quality. |
| User ReviewJennifer WThis is a fantastically relevant movie! Really enjoyed it, great cinematography and story! |
| User ReviewNeil WBeautifully shot, emotionally involving and also full of action and excitement. The environmental message has never been more firmly presented. |
| User ReviewKerrie MStarring Charley Boorman. Tells a true story of a parents who son was taken by the invisable people in the Amazon forest and the 10 year search for their son. One of the best movies I've seen. |
