How to Blow Up a Pipeline Ratings & Reviews
Kevin Ward
July 2, 2025
A captivating eco-thriller that ratchets up the tension with it’s masterful non-linear edit. I like my thrillers with maximum tensions, so this really hit the spot.
AWFJ.org
Alexandra Heller-Nicholas
Potent, powerful and unrelenting, How to Blow Up a Pipeline doesn't disguise its political agenda, and in an era of wishy-washy bothsiderism, this comes as a much-needed and ideologically meaningful relief.
Ty Burr's Watch List (Substack)
Ty Burr
"How to Blow Up a Pipeline" sucks you in through the scruffy efficiency of its filmmaking and it doesn't care whether you argue with it or not.
Vanity Fair
Richard Lawson
A nervy eco-thriller that doubles as a persuasive piece of activist messaging, Daniel Goldhaber's film vibrates with urgency.
Detroit News
Adam Graham
Goldhaber fashions this feisty, incendiary political barnburner as a daring heist thriller, "Ocean's Eleven" with an agenda. And it definitely goes boom.
Filmspotting
Adam Kempenaar
There's an undeniable propulsive energy to Pipeline… The question is how you feel about its rousing presentation upon reflection.
Book & Film Globe
Sara Stewart
Masterful Gen-Z agitprop. No notes.
NPR
John Powers
The abiding flaw of political movies is that the filmmakers are so busy promoting their beliefs they forget to make a good movie. How to Blow Up a Pipeline doesn't fall into that trap.
Washington Post
Ann Hornaday
Even if cinematic formula and theoretical arguments don't always mesh, Goldhaber and his collaborators wind up demonstrating impressive courage of their convictions.
IndieWire
Jude Dry
An ensemble drama too diluted to meaningfully establish any characters, How to Blow Up a Pipeline relies on tension-building music and chaotic flashbacks to piece together its one-trick heist narrative.
Observer
Oliver Jones
Pipeline's captivating ensemble of up-and-comers is equal to the film's imperativeness, and some of the character relationships feel as expendable as the explosive-carrying barrels central to the movie's plot.
TheWrap
Tomris Laffly
Daniel Goldhaber's Soderbergh-ian film ignites an urgent sense of activism through a stellar ensemble cast and sophisticated direction.
RogerEbert.com
Matt Zoller Seitz
One of the most original American thrillers in years, and one that draws from a deep well of movie history as it develops its characters and sets up its plot twists.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Roxana Hadadi
How to Blow Up a Pipeline wants to pick a fight, and it does so with an appealing lack of artifice, its heart on its sleeve and its agenda in its punching fists.
The Hollywood Reporter
Lovia Gyarkye
How to Blow Up a Pipeline might not offer a blueprint for explosive solutions, but it could spark some ideas.
Los Angeles Times
Carlos Aguilar
Each member of this ratpack clan represents a distinct background ensures that what unites them is not allegiance to a singular political or spiritual ideology, but rather the notion of a shared enemy: those willing to see the planet burn for a profit.
Rolling Stone
David Fear
The way that filmmaker Daniel Goldhaber pulls off what feels like a tightly wound Hollywood potboiler on what we imagine is little more than a studio caterer's budget is, in itself, a textbook how-to example.
Austin Chronicle
Richard Whittaker
There's no single figure with whom to empathize, but rather a concentration on the issues, the justifiable rage about inevitable environmental collapse, and the nerve-racking tension of waiting to see what - or who - will explode.
AV Club
Murtada Elfadl
Plays like a taut thriller that tells an unusual story. Its strength lies in making a topical issue palatable and highly watchable. It offers no judgment and no easy answers yet it firmly engenders empathy for its characters' actions.
The Daily Beast
Nick Schager
A work that proves hopelessly at odds with itself all the way to a conclusion that fizzles at the moment it should explode.
