Movie Reviews

Observer (UK) - 10/10 by Simran HansSceptics may enter Folsom with suspicion, but these are extraordinary scenes, so shocking and dynamic they might be mistaken for exorcisms.
Eye for Film - 10/10 by Jennie KermodeFilming almost entirely within one room over just four days, directors Jairus McLeary and Gethin Aldous have captured something remarkable.
Little White Lies - 10/10 by Aimee KnightNot to sound trite, but it's a damn privilege to watch this movie.
Aisle Seat - 10/10 by Mike McGranaghanA monumental achievement in documentary filmmaking. Profound and transformative, it utterly absorbs you for every single second of its running time.
Total Film - 10/10 by Matt GlasbyWhat emerges is as riveting as it is revelatory.
The Hollywood Reporter - 10/10 by Sheri LindenPutting the viewer into a men’s circle like no other, The Work is a remarkable piece of reportage.
Epoch Times - 10/10 by Mark JacksonOf all the critics on here, I'm the only one who's actually done/facilitated the work on display in the stunning documentary, "The Work." The movie is phenomenal. The real deal is mind-blowing.
VODzilla.co - 9/10 by Matthew TurnerFascinating and deeply moving, this fly-on-the-wall doc about Folsom Prison's unconventional group therapy program packs a powerful punch.
Christianity Today - 9/10 by Kenneth R. MorefieldThe interactions between the civilians and the convicts, however, show us in startling detail that despite how different our circumstances are, the demons we battle as fallen human beings are remarkably similar.
Screen International - 9/10 by Allan HunterThis intimate, intensely emotional documentary pushes against restrictive definitions of masculinity and addresses wider issues of punishment and rehabilitation within the penal system.
