Anthropocene: The Human Epoch Ratings & Reviews
Spirituality & Health
Bilge Ebiri
This powerful, poetic film shows the stunning beauty (and horrific impact) of humanity's creations as we leave the Holocene Epoch and enter the Anthropocene.
Hyperallergic
Laura Leavitt
Anthropocene's non-didactic approach makes space for the viewer's own thoughts, letting them meditate on their place in the planet it's presenting.
AWFJ.org
Susan Wloszczyna
This one of those docs that is built on the notions that seeing is believing and actions speak louder than words.
The Spool
Matt Cipolla
[T]he narration feels out of place for this visually sumptuous trip and its flashcard-like info doesn't really mesh with the sensory film it's trying to be.
Third Coast Review
Steven Prokopy
This is a movie that provides visually pure and beautifully photographed proof of the danger in which people are putting the planet.
Madison Movie
Rob Thomas
We're used to documentaries that celebrate gorgeous scenes of the natural world, but "Anthropocene: The Human Epoch" adds a discomfiting twist, presenting beautiful images of some of the ugliest things that humans are doing to the planet.
FilmWeek (LAist)
Charles Solomon
This is a very beautiful movie, but there is a difference between bombarding an audience with images and actually telling them something.
Austin Chronicle
Steve Davis
The film's stunning visuals of these and other impacted places, particularly the aerial shots, capture an abstract imagery that is at once beautiful and horrifying.
Los Angeles Times
Robert Abele
It's strongest, however, as a dizzying, dimensional tour of scale and time, forcing us to wonder how a sense of earth-centric balance can be restored.
New York Times
Ben Kenigsberg
At times, more information would be preferable; in other scenes, images speak volumes without words. But as advocacy, the movie is potent and frequently terrifying.
POV Magazine
Pat Mullen
The [team's] latest film is the culmination of a major body of work and it's as visually stunning and intellectually invigorating as the previous two films are.
The Hollywood Reporter
Boyd van Hoeij
It is important to remind people - again and again and again - that we can't continue to treat the planet like this.
Nonfics (Substack)
Luke Hicks
Astonishment. Pure, lurid, ravishing, genuine astonishment. That is Anthropocene: The Human Epoch.
RogerEbert.com
Nick Allen
The plate of vegetables that it sounds like, but its cinematography and passion for our planet make a strong case for your attention.
Hammer to Nail
Christopher Llewellyn Reed
As the filmmakers release us from our trance, we emerge concerned, horrified, but hopefully motivated to do something.
Reel Honest Reviews
Pamela Powell
Masterfully detailed, captivating you visually with a subtle yet haunting musical layer to tell a difficult yet necessary story.
Eye for Film
Jennie Kermode
To reach a better future, we have first to imagine it. Anthropocene elucidates our monstrous deeds in a way that is observational rather than condemnatory.
Film Threat
Bobby LePire
I can't exactly call Anthropocene: The Human Epoch a bad movie as it is made with good intentions and the cinematography is truly epic and sweeping. However, there is little reason to be invested...
The Movie Cricket
Sean P. Means
The luminous, terrifying and beautiful documentary "Anthropocene: The Human Epoch" feels like the culmination of the life's work of its three directors... because it chronicles what could be the end of human life on Earth.
Solzy at the Movies
Danielle Solzman
WhatAnthropocene - The Human Epoch leaves me wondering is whether or not humankind will be able to stave off the sixth extinction.
