Movie Reviews

About.com - 10/10 by Jennifer MerinA rare, intimate look at Tibetan Buddhists' search for the reincarnation of a deceased Lama, this beautifully filmed documetary is an extraordinary spiritual travelog, with all the dramatic elements of an exotic, enthralling fantasy
Reeling Reviews - 9/10 by Laura CliffordBaratz's work may not be the slickest, but he took a risk and followed through under arduous conditions to let an audience share in a mystical journey. The film itself is an act of faith.
Chicago Reader - 9/10 by Andrea GronvallFilms that address faith and love as eloquently as this moving 2008 documentary are rare.
Los Angeles Times - 8/10 by Kenneth TuranIts privileged glimpse deep into unfamiliar spiritual territory has the strength of revelation.
New York Post - 8/10 by V.A. MusettoI hope they have shrinks in remote Nepal, because this kid is going to need one. P.S.: The scenery is awesome.
Salon.com - 8/10 by Andrew O'HehirUnmistaken Child stands above most others in offering us an intimate look at Tibetan Buddhism in action, with no external commentary or narration.
Seanax.com - 8/10 by Sean AxmakerAlong the way, we are treated to a tour of spiritual belief, Buddhist ceremony and rural life in this remote region.
Globe and Mail - 8/10 by Rick GroenThis documentary is only partly a story of the chosen one; mainly, and more intriguingly, it's a chronicle of the choosing one, of the nervous young monk charged with the job of leading the search party.
Seattle Times - 8/10 by Tom Keogh[Director] Baratz's access to every stage of the process -- from Zopa's selection of a candidate to the testing of that candidate to the blessing of the Dalai Lama himself -- is phenomenal, almost indescribably privileged.
Washington Post - 8/10 by Dan ZakUnmistaken Child: adorable, moving, bewildering, sad and, ultimately, peaceful.
