A reminder that the architects of a massive tragedy remain present and unrepentant, the personification of the evil men do and a warning that it could happen again. August 27, 2015 | Rating: 4.5/5 | Full Review…

Killing focused on the surreal reenactment of mass genocide by its elderly perpetrators. Silence makes it personal. August 20, 2015 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

Moving and devastating, The Look of Silence is a true illustration of the power of movies; you walk out of the theater and never look at the world in quite the same way ever again. July 5, 2020 | Rating: A+ | Full Review…

The Look of Silence definitely packs a lot of power, but it feels more supplementary to Oppenheimer's brilliant first film. June 15, 2019 | Full Review…

A harrowing and humanitarian work, the culmination of Oppenheimer's ten-year effort to let the truth out deserves every superlative that can be thrown at it. May 16, 2019 | Rating: 5/5 | Full Review…

The Look of Silence doesn't push the documentary form like The Act of Killing, but it's just as emotionally devastating and even more beautifully shot and edited, with a keen awareness of the effects of eerie silences and ghostly compositions. April 19, 2019 | Rating: 4.5/5 | Full Review…
