Critic Reviews for Michael Inside

All Critics (10)

Stunningly acted, never didactic and yet provoking endless important questions, Michael Inside is a searing portrait of a damaged system, and the boys we lose to it.

April 19, 2018 | Rating: 5/5 | Full Review…

Berry has a clear vision of our social problems; his film opens the doors of our prison system and draws the viewer inside.

April 9, 2018 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

It's moving, emotionally gripping and every scene has the ring of truth.

April 9, 2018 | Rating: 5/5 | Full Review…

It's insightful and compassionate without ever being mawkish about people we perhaps all too easily choose to write off.

April 9, 2018 | Rating: 5/5 | Full Review…

It's no easy watch, that's for sure -- but it's an important one. Stellar Irish film-making.

April 9, 2018 | Rating: 5/5 | Full Review…

It is the generous humanism underlying the documentary realism that sets the film apart.
