As a true or accurate portrait of the real Iraq ... pic pales in comparison to various in-depth U.S. and European reports, and to Bahman Ghobadi's brilliant new drama on wartime Kurdish refugees, Turtles Can Fly.

Top CriticWe don't get to stay with anyone long enough to feel the full power of their story, but a mosaic portrait of a diverse nation emerges.

Top CriticDespite a good amount of balance allowing for the expression of some anti-American sentiment, Voices of Iraq comes down squarely on the side supporting the war in Iraq.
10/29/04
Top CriticIt's an approach that even the war's harshest critics should find interesting.

Top CriticIt's impossible to say if what the makers of this 'experimental documentary' have assembled is a representative sample of these home movies, but on balance it's vastly more flattering to the Bush administration than Fahrenheit 9/11 and its ilk.

Top CriticThe lack of more than a handful of Iraqis decrying their personal losses and the chaos that has ensued makes it hard to trust the sincerity of the filmmakers.

Top CriticMaybe my skepticism comes with the timing -- the movie arrives just days before the presidential election.

Top CriticThe goal of this documentary is to show what life is like for the everyday people of Iraq... and the result may surprise you.

By turns heartbreaking, amusing and disturbing, the film features people from different regions, economic classes and religions, recounting stories that are sometimes bleak, sometimes encouraging, but always compelling.

Top CriticIf Voices of Iraq cannot claim to represent the political 'truth' about the war, it certainly provides an unprecedented glimpse into the texture of daily life there.
10/28/04
Top CriticThe movie conveys a sense of what it would be like to live in a place where bombs could drop next door.
10/28/04
An extraordinary, up-to-the-minute tapestry that ranges all over this country of 25 million people and carries the force of revelation.
10/28/04
Top CriticA thought-provoking way to tell part of the present-day story of this war-torn country.
10/28/04
Top CriticAny film that credits itself as 'filmed and directed by the people of Iraq' deserves to be regarded with skepticism.
