Earth Reviews
Slant Magazine
Ed Gonzalez
In Aleksandr Dovzhenko's orgiastic paean to Soviet collectivism and tractor-ism Earth there is nothing more beautiful than the untainted countryside.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
A unique political poem.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
Ken Hanke
Supposed classic -- for art house diehards only.
Combustible Celluloid
Jeffrey M. Anderson
It's a simple propaganda piece that overcomes its flaws through graceful cinematography and editing.
eye WEEKLY
Jason Anderson
The vitality of the landscape is mirrored in the faces of the community's hardy young peasants.
Village Voice
J. Hoberman
The astonishingly beautiful Earth is unlike anything else in movies.
The New Masses
Harry Alan Potamkin
It extends the message of collectivism farther into the province of the reflective, whither the film the world over must inherently progress. But in moving to the reflective, it becomes too personal a meditation...
CinePassion
Fernando F. Croce
Dovzhenko's grave and jubilant landmark
The Nation
Alexander Bakshy
There is no denying, of course, the extraordinary power of Dovzhenko's imagination, but it seems rather late in the day to bring out of the symbolist bag such ancient devices as the masklike face and the stylized movement.
New York Times
Mordaunt Hall
Much of this film is chaotic, especially during the church episode and some of the closing scenes.
Berkeley Barb
J.N. Thomas
Dovzhenko was a poet of nature, a radical mystic more akin to Blake than Marx, and in this film this love is dramatized in images of tremendous power.
Chicago Reader
Jonathan Rosenbaum
Incontestably one of the greatest of all Soviet films.
TV Guide
The tragedy of Dovzhenko is that of a gifted cineaste stymied and almost maddened by the demands, actual and implicit, of his ultra-repressive state sponsors.
