Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Levy handles with aplomb what could easily have been a messy mix of emotions and politics.

fresh:
In the end, it seems, this is not a story about two families, and two lands. It's a story about one family, and one world.

fresh:
Levy generally succeeds in creating a compelling, humanistic family drama, even if some viewers may reject the movie's final note of optimism.
– Walter V. Addiego,

rotten:
A humane but emotionally anemic message movie whose dramatic craft doesn't live up to its good intentions.
– Colin Covert,

fresh:
It is easy to imagine other, darker, results after the opening accident, but Levy's film, pitched firmly as if it were the only possibility, makes it seem so.
