Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
It's one of those movies where questions like "Why didn't they do that?" or "Wait, what's their relationship?" keep popping up. And for the most part, those questions never get answered.

fresh:
A poignant, haunting study of well-intentioned but doomed folly, embodied by a heroine whose bravery renders her blind to the world that is crumbling around her.

fresh:
A thoughtful, if sometimes frustrating, tale of a Frenchwoman caught in the middle of a civil war in an unidentified African country.

White Material is unhurried in its storytelling but unshakable in its impact.

fresh:
A maddening movie that gives the viewer plenty to think about, but little to care about.
