Our Brand Is Crisis Ratings & Reviews
Austin Chronicle
Courtney Fitzgerald
This documentary by first-time director Boynton proves democracy and capitalism are disturbingly intertwined.
Detroit Free Press
John Monaghan
The movie is both frightening and ironically funny, sometimes both.
Seattle Times
Jeff Shannon
Subject matter dominates over filmmaking craft in Rachel Boynton's somewhat sloppy but otherwise riveting documentary.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Wilmington
Politics and mass communication are the volatile subjects of Rachel Boynton's information-packed documentary.
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
It's a galling and provocative experience to viewers of any political persuasion, and a reminder to the left of how easily idealism can run amok.
Boxoffice Magazine
Tim Cogshell
Insightful if not altogether objective.
Los Angeles Times
Kenneth Turan
Unlikely as it sounds, a documentary that details with jaw-dropping candor how contemporary political campaigning works at the highest levels of government is set not in this country but in the far-off reaches of Bolivia.
L.A. Weekly
Ella Taylor
Rachel Boynton's painfully timely film is actually a full-court tragedy -- the sorry tale of a battle won and a war lost.
Washington Post
Stephen Hunter
Political junkies will love this movie.
The Hollywood Reporter
Frank Scheck
Ultimately provides a vivid illustration of the not-so-hopeful future of international politics.
New York Daily News
Jack Mathews
Gani is certainly no hero and his American strategists come off as the worst sort of interlopers.
Entertainment Weekly
Owen Gleiberman
What's eye-opening, as well as depressing, is that the film reveals how even the politics of a nation's life and death can now be reduced to a technocratic shell game.
New York Magazine/Vulture
David Edelstein
Only a naf would be surprised by Our Brand Is Crisis, but only a nihilist would not be alarmed by the endless reverberations of Boynton's case study-and by its suggestion of a systemic separation of modern politics and the national good.
Variety
Ronnie Scheib
Our Brand Is Crisis proves as entertaining as the earlier The War Room, which also featured Carville, but is more somber.
Newsday
Gene Seymour
Boynton maintains a relatively level tone and clear eye and, thus, allows her audience to ask some hard questions about whether our democratic process translates all that clearly in other countries.
New York Post
Kyle Smith
Boynton isn't interested in telling a story, only in the atmosphere of political consultancy. But we already knew this kind of thing happens in American politics. Why shouldn't Bolivia be entitled to sophisticated polling advice?
New York Times
Laura Kern
Rachel Boynton's momentous documentary chronicles the election-strategizing process in scrupulous detail.
AV Club
Nathan Rabin
Our Brand Is Crisis' queasy power comes from its understanding of how elections have tangible real-world consequences that are measured in deaths and riots as wells as polls and ballots.
The New Yorker
David Denby
Among other things, Our Brand Is Crisis is about the failure of good intentions -- a potent American theme at the moment.
Village Voice
J. Hoberman
Exotic location notwithstanding, Rachel Boynton's riveting political documentary Our Brand Is Crisis is a sequel to the Clinton-era campaign vrit, The War Room.
