In This World Reviews
Entertainment Weekly
Lisa Schwarzbaum
In This World unfolds with the deceptive dispassion of a documentary, but builds with a sure sense of dramatic epic.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
It feels torn from the kind of newsreel that brings an ache to the heart.
Rolling Stone
Peter Travers
Without an ounce of phony Hollywood uplift, Winterbottom's film cuts right to the heart.
San Francisco Chronicle
Jonathan Curiel
By humanizing an immigrant/ refugee crisis that is not abating, Winterbottom does a cinematic service that happens to be damn interesting, too.
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
It's a tremendous human drama, with each stage of its characters' journey a white-knuckle thriller in miniature.
Detroit Free Press
Terry Lawson
Passionate but precise filmmaking that reduces impossibly enormous concepts to intimate, personal drama.
New York Times
A.O. Scott
If there is heartbreak in this movie, there is also a sense of energy that makes it almost exhilarating.
Newsday
John Anderson
The results are something highly unusual and inescapable.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
What's real and what's fiction in the film is hard to say, but we trust that the images are informed by truth.
Los Angeles Times
Kenneth Turan
Even if it is counterfeit in a number of ways, the story In This World tells finally wins us over because it is too disturbing and well told not to.
New York Post
Megan Lehmann
Makes real the desperate lengths that refugees -- those running from poverty as well as danger -- will go to.
New York Daily News
Elizabeth Weitzman
There is a hardly a false note, which makes this both a difficult and exceedingly memorable film to watch.
eye WEEKLY
Adam Nayman
Ferociously stakes a claim to the hearts, and minds, of viewers fortunate enough to see it.
The New Republic
Stanley Kauffmann
In This World leaves us with little more than 'Tsk, tsk.'
Observer
Andrew Sarris
In This World is not a facile entertainment, but a prescribed cure for one's compassion fatigue.
Fort Worth Star-Telegram/DFW.com
Scott Von Doviak
More successful as an eye-opening procedural than a fully satisfying narrative.
Washington Post
Stephen Hunter
The two boys are splendid, but Jamal, the younger, stands out.
Washington Post
Desson Thomson
It's a 90-minute newsreel with a broken heart.
Dallas Morning News
Philip Wuntch
In This World is both a moving homage to human resilience and a piercing indictment of human greed.
Chicago Tribune
Allison Benedikt
This is an amazing movie, released at a frightening time and made under remarkable circumstances.
