Objectified Ratings & Reviews
Chicago Tribune
Michael Phillips
It gets you thinking.
NYC Movie Guru
Avi Offer
Has sporadically intriguing moments and stylish editing, but its lack of insight, elaborations and synthesis makes it seem deficient in both form and function as a documentary.
Salon.com
Stephanie Zacharek
Objectified is so straightforward, sensible and thought-provoking that it alleviates that design noise instead of adding to it.
Boxoffice Magazine
Matthew Nestel
This is an offering for those that can spot the beauty in objects from beamers to toilet bowl plungers.
New York Times
Stephen Holden
As sleek and handsome as any of the new and improved household items it exhibits.
Slant Magazine
Bill Weber
moothly compelling with its sleek, mass-produced shapes and beautiful minds that fetishize ergonomics and the ideal of perfectability.
Variety
Ronnie Scheib
Witty, engaging and exquisitely crafted.
AV Club
Keith Phipps
It provides just enough information to invite further study without going into much detail. It's an intriguing film about what goes on beneath the surface of the objects we take for granted, but one that never digs as deep as it should.
Film Journal International
Maria Garcia
Compilation of filmed interviews with industrial designers who talk about the philosophy of design, rather than the objects they designed.
Entertainment Weekly
Lisa Schwarzbaum
You'll never look at your next toothbrush (or your next any product) in quite the same way after watching this astute, elegant inquiry into the purpose and process of industrial design, Objectified.
Village Voice
Aaron Hillis
A slickly entertaining and thorough enough curiosity about the form, function, context, inspiration, and evolution of industrial design.
Compuserve
Harvey S. Karten
A documentary that could have been more involving to people outside design careers if director Hustwit edited out some of the long, tedious monologues in favor of showing more products with exciting designs.
