Land of the Blind Reviews
New York Post
Kyle Smith
Writer-director Robert Edwards frantically throws in references to Orwell (Animal Farm and 1984), Lady Macbeth, Yeats, Mao, etc.
Entertainment Weekly
Lisa Schwarzbaum
There's nothing particularly revolutionary about writer-director Robert Edwards' grimly satiric political fable.
Newark Star-Ledger
Lisa Rose
The movie leaves you with lots of questions, mainly, what are Ralph Fiennes and Donald Sutherland doing here? Imagine Ed Wood attempting Brazil or Uwe Boll remaking V For Vendetta.
New York Times
Stephen Holden
Robert Edward's satirical allegory shamelessly borrows ideas from Orwell's 1984, then tramples them into the dust.
Rolling Stone
Peter Travers
Political satire is so rare that it's a shame to watch the reliable Ralph Fiennes and Donald Sutherland lend their talents to one that is blind to its own incompetence.
Reel.com
Timothy Knight
A labored pastiche of familiar dystopian motifs that beats the same, totalitarian-themed drum over and over again.
Filmcritic.com
Chris Cabin
Is this what we have stooped to for leftist political films? Robert Edwards' film for one reason or another really thinks it's saying something.
Slant Magazine
Nick Schager
A sour satirical cocktail blended with ingredients oft-used in the recipes of Terry Gilliam and Paul Verhoeven.
7M Pictures
Kevin Carr
one of the most politically essential films of the year, almost as significant as Terry Gilliam's masterpiece Brazil.
TV Guide
Maitland McDonagh
Strident, bombastic parable.
Greenwich Village Gazette
Eric Lurio
The Who did it better in We Won't Get Fooled Again
The New Republic
Stanley Kauffmann
The only matter that interests is the question of Fiennes's presence in this political lesson for children.
The Hollywood Reporter
Frank Scheck
About as subtle as its all too obvious title would suggest.
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Calvin Wilson
An indelible portrait of the contradictions of power.
Observer
Rex Reed
If satire is the thing that closes on Saturday night, then political satire is usually doomed to close one night earlier. In the case of a pretentious monstrosity called Land of the Blind, it's a miracle it ever opened at all.
Village Voice
Michael Atkinson
Wrongheaded and bizarrely outrageous.
Variety
Jay Weissberg
One of the more spectacular misfires of recent years, Land of the Blind's lack of originality is only slightly exceeded by its failure to work as political satire.
european-films.net
Boyd van Hoeij
Ralph Fiennes and Donald Sutherland as terrorist co-operatives? This is not a joke nor Hollywood's remake of Paradise now, but the biggest sales point of the Land of the Blind.
