Tibet: Cry of the Snow Lion Reviews
Orlando Sentinel
Roger Moore
A colorful but grimly efficient documentary about a culture under siege.
Detroit Free Press
John Monaghan
Tibet: Cry of the Snow Lion will make even the most apolitical viewers want to hoist their own Free Tibet banners.
Miami Herald
Marta Barber
It is pretty convincing in its argument that China has every intention of destroying the culture of Tibetans.
Detroit News
Tom Long
Tibet: Cry of the Snow Lion is not just well-intentioned, it's admirably well-intentioned. Its intentions are so good they sparkle... The only problem is, that sort of stuff doesn't always make for the most fascinating movie.
Los Angeles Times
Kevin Thomas
Harrowing and illuminating.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Steven Rea
A sobering examination of a land in turmoil and a people that have faced what former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations Jeanne Kirkpatrick cites as 20 years of ethnic cleansing.
Chicago Tribune
Ellen Fox
Such a measured primer of talking heads and footage -- a broad, slick Tibet 101 -- that it seems better suited to the classroom than the big screen, despite its Himalayan scenery and rustic colors.
Seattle Times
Erik Lundegaard
Focuses too much on what we know and not enough on what we don't.
Denver Post
Michael Booth
If Richard Gere annoys you, ignore him and the other celebrities mentioned here and learn something.
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
Cry of the Snow Lion succeeds in making a viewer want to do more, but it's scattershot enough to make you want to know more too.
Dallas Morning News
Jane Sumner
It's a rare glimpse of China's 'final solution' for a courageous people whose world view is one of forgiveness, nonviolence and love.
Denver Rocky Mountain News
Robert Denerstein
It's a factual movie, but it winds up speaking loudly to the heart.
San Francisco Chronicle
Jonathan Curiel
Documentaries can be informative, entertaining and provocative, but rare is the documentary that makes you feel so engaged (and enraged) that it prompts you to action somehow. Tibet: Cry of the Snow Lion is that kind of film.
New York Post
V.A. Musetto
Part political thriller, part National Geographic travelogue, Tom Peosay's documentary is a distressing look at China's 50-year repression of the people of Tibet.
New York Daily News
Elizabeth Weitzman
[An] unabashedly heart-tugging documentary.
Washington Post
Desson Thomson
Each revelation seems more disturbing than the next.
Hollywood Reporter
Frank Scheck
A fascinating and reasonably comprehensive portrait.
Village Voice
Thulani Davis
Historical footage charts Tibet's encounter with its Communist neighbor, but the doc also provides a National Geographic kind of pleasure.
New York Times
Dave Kehr
A more concise and affecting summation of the Tibetan crisis would be hard to imagine.
