When Two Worlds Collide Ratings & Reviews
Newcity
Ray Pride
Heidi Brandenburg and Mathew Orzel's crisp, brisk When Two Worlds Collide captures the 2009 confrontation between Peru's president Alan Garcia, hailing from the elites, and indigenous activists who intend to preserve their Amazonian rainforest hom
Los Angeles Times
Robert Abele
"When Two Worlds Collide" has a breathless urgency to it, even if its structuring of events feels a bit ramshackle, and the directness of its environmental warnings feel no different than a thousand other message docs.
IndieWire
David Ehrlich
A strikingly present documentary debut that traces how the friction between a government and its people can metastasize into a dangerous state of insurgency.
New York Post
Farran Smith Nehme
The importance of the issues is what carries the film along.
AV Club
Noel Murray
When Two Worlds Collide employs a variety of styles and approaches to construct a single gripping narrative.
Paste Magazine
Kenji Fujishima
Brandenburg and Orzel's film is an activist documentary, and at its center is Alberto Pizango, a genuinely magnetic revolutionary who organizes and leads the Peruvian Amazonians against President Alan Garcia.
Village Voice
Alan Scherstuhl
Brandenburg and Orzel's film is only boilerplate in the kickoff scenes. Otherwise it makes the fight local and personal.
New York Times
Glenn Kenny
A dutiful, and ultimately pedestrian, documentary. There is something evasive about it as well.
FF2 Media
Nora Lee Mandel
Restores priorities in "Save Amazon Rainforest" from trendy phrase to a life and tragic death political movement galvanized by a charismatic leader to save indigenous people
