Critics Reviews

Martin Tsai Los Angeles Times Oct 9, 2014
The film operates under the assumption that the average Joe associates Mormonism more with "Sister Wives" than Mitt Romney, so the film will be an eye-opener only for subscribers to such stereotypes. Go to Full Review
Ben Kenigsberg New York Times Oct 9, 2014
The narration promises surprises ("This story may challenge what you think you know about the roles men and women play in Mormon homes"), but the movie might have started by examining its straw-man conception of the audience. Go to Full Review
Barbara VanDenburgh Arizona Republic Oct 9, 2014
2/5
Would you go out of your way to see an infomercial that was more than an hour long? Would you even pay for the privilege? That's what "Meet the Mormons" would have filmgoers do. Go to Full Review
Josh Terry Deseret News (Salt Lake City) Nov 29, 2017
Audiences from outside the LDS Church may not come away with a new understanding of church positions on contemporary social issues, but at least they might find their basic assumptions challenged. Go to Full Review

Nothing more than a slick-looking TV ad, where its placement behind the "pay wall" of your local AMC, Regal or Cinemark seems rather silly. Go to Full Review

Isn't it silly to demand the film be more than what the filmmakers intended it to be? Did anyone expect the church to hire Michael Moore to direct its film? Go to Full Review

Jun 5, 2022 Wonderful! Great stories, good music, and a lot of fun and touching moments. See more
Nov 19, 2021 I've observed concerted efforts on Mormon forums to outvote the critics on this site. Despite the high chance that many Mormons haven't even watched the film, they're working together to portray this movie in a much more flattering light than it deserves. See more
Ken C @LongFlightOfStairs May 24, 2020 It's true that the film doesn't delve very deep into Mormonism itself or the doctrines, but that's not the point of this film. The point is to show the world the stories of individuals within the church and the sort of people they are. If you're looking for perspectives on Mormonism itself, there are plenty of other sources for that. The people featured in the film are interesting, inspirational individuals and the film does a good job of showing how members in the church live their lives. See more
Apr 26, 2020 Excellent view of how members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints live. Loved it!! See more
Jul 21, 2019 It's cool to see how other Christians of my faith, live their lives, all around the world. :D...I enjoyed it very much, and don't suppose anyone would be offended, unless that was the desired intent, which is obviously unfortunate. ;) See more
Apr 26, 2018 Super boring. Nothing exciting about the movie. Just mormons trying to rebrand their image. See more
