Director Anthony Giacchino doesn't always relate the tale in the clearest fashion, but his sometimes overly emotional approach... doesn't detract from its essential fascination.

Not exactly blazing cinema, but intellectually riveting.

Concise, inventive and unabashedly partisan, The Camden 28 is a small movie that contains multitudes.

Jul 29, 2007[font=Century Gothic]In 1971, a group of antiwar activists led by Protestant and Catholic clergy who were inspired by the civil disobedience of priests Philip and Daniel Berrigan decided to steal and destroy draft records in Camden, NJ. "The Camden 28" is a highly engrossing documentary about this action told through archival footage, interviews with participants and footage of a reunion 30 years later. The story is a complex one, with a couple of twists. Not only were the activists concerned with the war in Vietnam, but also the poverty in their native Camden.(Many of the local draftees were selected from the poorest neighborhoods.) It even made me rethink some of my views of religion but I did cringe when one of the priests talked about life being sacred. And it was especially cool that some of these activists are still involved in the antiwar movement thirty years later.[/font] [font=Century Gothic]Note to the film's director: Sorry I couldn't stay after the show but I really did have to run.[/font]Walter M Super Reviewer
