Movie Reviews

Christianity Today - 9/10 by Kenneth R. MorefieldThe film shows that we need committed, responsible, determined journalists because few of us have the resources to investigate the truth claims of those who make demands for our attention, our money, our votes, and our praise.
Cinemalogue.com - 9/10 by Todd JorgensonIf only some manipulative filmmaking hadn't gotten in the way, this documentary exposing the unethical tactics of a Thailand charity could have been more impactful.
The New York Times - 7/10 by Daniel M. GoldIn the end, The Wrong Light is an engrossing cautionary tale teaching one of philanthropy’s oldest lessons: Caveat emptor.
The Hollywood Reporter - 6/10 by John DeForeDespite occasionally shaky storytelling, the doc sticks to its mission even as the most fundamental obstacles arise, producing a dramatic account that will make all do-gooders think twice about how they spend their charitable dollars.
Los Angeles Times - 6/10 by Gary GoldsteinThe results, although emotional, intriguing and a bit surprising, lack the journalistic urgency, heft and deeper danger often connected to these sorts of cinematic unravelings.
Slant Magazine - 4/10 by Clayton DillardThe divide between meaningful journalism and ethical filmmaking seldom seems as wide as it does in The Wrong Light.
Film Journal International - 4/10 by Chris Barsanti[A] prismatic, thought-sparking documentary.
User Review - 8/10 by Laurie EVery interesting documentary that takes a big turn midstream. I saw this at a filmfest several months ago.
