Carbon Nation Ratings & Reviews
Shared Darkness
Brent Simon
Thought-provoking on a macro level in some of its interviews, but its sloppy construction, poor focus and rah-rah boosterism make for a sludgy viewing experience.
Slant Magazine
Diego Semerene
Afraid of the dullness of its subject matter, and of being lost in the swarm of patronizing eco-documentaries, Carbon Nation tries really hard to speak to the language of "young people these days."
San Francisco Chronicle
Walter V. Addiego
What we get is the filmic equivalent of a smiley face. But enthusiasm and sincerity don't make the hard questions go away.
New York Post
Kyle Smith
Interviewees who issue hysterical statements like "the sea ice cap is almost gone" go uncontradicted.
Austin Chronicle
Marjorie Baumgarten
The film's hectic pace and flow has more in common with design of a kids' educational TV show, and although the information seems sometimes chaotic. it is always lively, thought-provoking, and inspirational.
Los Angeles Times
Gary Goldstein
"Carbon Nation" is an inspiring look at the many recent advances in clean energy and green technologies.
TheLoop21.com
Kam Williams
A sobering documentary which makes a convincing case that climate change is a national security issue.
New York Times
Neil Genzlinger
This film seems blissfully unaware that political obstructionists are paralyzing the legislative process; that deep-pocketed influence peddlers have a vested interest in maintaining the fossil fuel culture; that, in general, people resist change.
Spirituality & Practice
Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat
A documentary with a varied group of Americans talking about solutions to the very-real crisis of climate change.
Projection Booth
Rob Humanick
Will the grandchildren of our grandchildren cherish our memory because we rose as one and did the right thing?
NYC Movie Guru
Avi Offer
Mildly captivating albeit one-sided and over-simplified. It merely presents a reader's digest overview of climate change solutions [that's] more overwhelming than inspirational.
Village Voice
Michelle Orange
Alternative energy sources-algae, wind, and geothermal-are showcased, but Carbon Nation is most persuasive when it focuses on the individuals utilizing those supplies in their communities.
Variety
John Anderson
Well intended but inert.
ReelTalk Movie Reviews
Donald J. Levit
To a point, it is refreshing to listen to positive talking heads in fields and factories. But there are so many faces that one cannot keep track of who's who and what's what.
Film Journal International
Eric Monder
Highly informative, relatively upbeat take on global warming.
