This moral-economic drama plays out in backroom deals that Boynton records in all their stunning and at times shameless candor. Apr 4, 2014 | Rating: A- | Full Review…

The constant machinations can get a little confusing. Thankfully, Boynton, a dogged reporter, manages to keep the story on a human scale. Mar 20, 2014 | Rating: B+ | Full Review…

Fanon would have said that eventually "the wretched of the earth" will wake up and learn their lesson. If this vivid, compassionate but unstinting film is any indication, Rachel Boynton is not convinced. Mar 14, 2014 | Full Review…

In "Big Men", Rachel Boynton offers a case study in how the promise of big wealth brings out the ruthless self-interest of all the parties concerned. Mar 14, 2014 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…

Dropping us into a perfect storm of avarice, this cool and incisive snapshot of global capitalism at work is as remarkable for its access as for its refusal to judge. Mar 13, 2014 | Full Review…

There are three categories of schemers in Big Men, Rachel Boynton's illuminating documentary about the oil business in West Africa: businessmen, politicians and bandits. Sometimes, though, it's hard to tell the types apart. Mar 13, 2014 | Full Review…

US oil exploitation in Africa, stretching from Texas to Nigeria and Ghana, and how the director managed to infiltrate oil oligarch boardrooms and subversive jungle hideaways alike. Detailed and informative, but lacking analysis and a big perspective. Apr 16, 2014 | Full Review…

A kind of true-life, slow-motion disaster flick for the NPR set [which] throws a spotlight on human fallibility, and all the shades of grey that color the geopolitical world. Apr 2, 2014 | Rating: B | Full Review…

Big Men weighs the balance of serving the common good v. the needs of commerce and government, understanding that historically this has tipped in favor of the latter. Ghana's fate, and perhaps the future of the whole continent, lie in the balance. Mar 21, 2014 | Rating: B+ | Full Review…

What sets 'Big Men' apart and makes it engrossing is the extraordinary degree of access Boynton had to the major parties and the deftness with which she uses it. Mar 21, 2014 | Rating: B+ | Full Review…
