Movie Reviews

New York Post - 8/10 by V.A. MusettoThe documentary does a superlative job of examining the half-century dispute over Chinese rule of mountainous Tibet.
The Hollywood Reporter - 8/10 by Sheri LindenThe film is essential viewing for anyone who cares about the fate of the mountain region and the legacy of the Dalai Lama.
Los Angeles Times - 7/10 by Kevin ThomasA fresh examination of the plight of the Tibetans still craving independence after a half century of either homeland misery or increasingly long exile.
Salon.com - 7/10 by Andrew O'HehirSarin and Sonam also lift the veil on potentially explosive divisions within the Tibetan exile community, which is torn between spiritual and cultural loyalty to the Dalai Lama and a widespread longing for true independence. (The filmmakers clearly belong to the pro-independence camp.)
Boxoffice Magazine - 6/10 by Matthew NestelThe filmmakers do bang-up job expanding the frontline perspectives, aiming to subvert a ruling regime’s course and expose its cloudy human rights record.
New York Daily News - 6/10 by Elizabeth WeitzmanJust as you need two hands to clap, explain frustrated young activists, the ­Dalai Lama requires a reasonable partner with whom to negotiate. And right now, it seems, the Tibetans may as well have their arms tied behind their backs.
Time Out - 6/10 by Joshua RothkopfThe doc dutifully allows for these varying viewpoints, but in a mode that’s not especially captivating, despite a guitar score by Brokeback Mountain’s Gustavo Santaolalla.
Boston Globe - 5/10 by Mark FeeneyWhile never heavy-handed about its politics, the film makes no effort to disguise its strong anti-Chinese bias.
Village Voice - 5/10 by Michelle OrangeClouds teases out the contradiction between the Lama's power as a symbol to the fiercely loyal Tibetan people, and that of his diplomatic voice, which he is using to push what they see as an impotent agenda.
The New York Times - 4/10 by Neil GenzlingerThe filmmakers, chronicling the Dalai Lama’s somewhat muddled attempts to respond to the protesters’ calls while not antagonizing China, do a fair amount of muddling themselves. They lurch awkwardly between reverence for the Dalai Lama and hints that he has become, politically, irrelevant or an obstacle.
