Movie Reviews

About.com - 10/10 by Jennifer MerinHeather Courtney's poignant character-driven documentary presents a compelling argument that we should not send young Americans to war.
Projection Booth - 9/10 by Rob HumanickThe film can't help but feel unfinished, but perhaps it might've lent more privacy to these individual's demons (the difference between looking and seeing) and found more cause in their roots.
Film Threat - 9/10 by Phil HallThe young men at the center of the film have obnoxious personalities and it takes a great deal of patience to follow their journeys.
TIME Magazine - 9/10 by Steven SnyderDirector Heather Courtney's emotional and engrossing portrait of America's bravest.
Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN) - 9/10 by John BeifussOne of the more valuable and compassionate entries to date in the ever-expanding catalog of documentaries inspired by the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.
Variety - 8/10 by Andrew BarkerCovering their lives with intimate access from before boot camp to the difficult return home, Heather Courtney's documentary packs a savage but understated punch.
rec.arts.movies.reviews - 8/10 by Louis ProyectA documentary reminiscent of Cimino's "The Deer Hunter" but without the demonization of the "bad guys" that marred that film.
Monsters and Critics - 8/10 by Ron WilkinsonA low key but powerful expose' of the lingering effects of war---on a most personal level.
The New York Times - 7/10 by Jeannette CatsoulisWhere Soldiers Come From is, more than anything, a commentary on class. In its compassionate, modest gaze, the real cost of distant political decisions is softly illuminated, as well as the shame of a country with little to offer its less fortunate young people than a ticket to a battlefield.
EmanuelLevy.Com - 7/10 by Emanuel LevyIntriguing, personal war docu, about small-town soldiers stuck between boyhood and manhood; a good companion piece to the fictionalized The Deer Hubter, to which this work makes reference.
