Movie Reviews

AV Club - 9/10 by Nathan RabinWorkingman's Death's primary pleasures are aesthetic. Glawogger is an extraordinarily elegant filmmaker with a photographer's eye for striking compositions.
WBAI Web Radio - 8/10 by Prairie MillerLabor as decorative and devoid of meaning.
Film Scouts - 8/10 by Jason GorberIt's a rewarding film with some elements I may never forget.
Goatdog's Movies - 6/10 by Michael W. Phillips, Jr.Visually, technically, the film is undeniably a work of art, with all aspects -- sound, editing, cinematography, music -- coming together in a stunning symphony.
New York Post - 5/10 by V.A. MusettoThere's scant dialogue in Workingman's Death, but little is needed when majestic camera work by Wolfgang Thaler tells the story so well.
New York Times - 4/10 by Stephen HoldenIn the film's production notes, Mr. Glawogger wonders, "Is heavy manual labor disappearing or is it just becoming invisible?" In this visually impressive but proudly unscientific hymn to progress, the answers are yes and yes.
User Review - 10/10 by Danny BPowerful documentary about the limits man will go to, in his efforts to survive.
User Review - 10/10 by Schoony SAmazing, and sometimes horrifying view of the conditions in which some of the world's poorest laborers work. 5 stars for the cinematography and for the director going beyond the bounds of national geographic or the discovery channel.
User Review - 10/10 by Dave SI saw this movie at the film festival last year. Not sure if it's out on video, but if you ever get the chance to see it, I would recommend it. It's a documentary about the working conditions of people all over the world, from a coal mine in Ukraine, a slaughterhouse in Nigeria, a sulphur mine in Malaysia, and shipbreaking yard in India. The movie is real and unadorned with commentary or soaring music or other cinematic effects. It simply follows real people along on their jobs, and the results will change the way you think of work and your own job. Ultimately it's a movie about the lengths that people will go to to make a living. Powerful and moving.
User Review - 10/10 by Benjaminek Cplease show our respect to all the working class!
