Reggio's work may be mesmerizing and technically engrossing, but it's also narrowly self-righteous. Instead of expanding our consciousness, he instead seeks to squeeze it into his point of view through a movie that tries to tell us what to think.

'shows the consequences of what we have done in the past and the danger of where we are heading'

Top Critic You’d be hard-pressed to find another movie that conveys the contrasts of life in the modern world more effectively.
