Critics Consensus

Captured with bracing frankness by director Mtsyslav Chernov, 2000 Meters to Andriivka is a poignant missive from the front lines.

Mstyslav Chernov’s harrowing follow-up to his documentary 20 Days in Mariupol recognises the bravery of Ukraine soldiers, but is clear-eyed about the queasy absurdity of war.

The propulsive reportage of the first film gives way to an anguished existential howl. It’s equally powerful, but perhaps even bleaker.

Relentless and immersive, 2000 Meters to Andriivka turns a short distance into an abyss. Chernov places us inside the war’s physical and emotional toll, stripping combat of heroism and revealing only exhaustion, loss, and uncertainty.

2000 Meters to Andriivka is a very challenging piece of work, but yet feels strangely calm. Probably because it is so starkly factual.

It's not absurd to call it the most profound war documentary of all time because of the vantage point of which it's shot. But it does show the pure absurdity of war. An absolute must-see masterpiece. This and Age of Disclosure will compete for Documentary of the Year in the Oscar's.

Every American should watch this movie no matter your beliefs. This is a heartfelt and true depiction of war. One that will be labeled in history as a harbinger that potentially changed everything we knew to be normal previously. A must watch of our times.

Devastating and truly extraordinary account of the horrible war in Ukraine. It powerfully depicts the courage and sacrifices Ukrainians are making to stop the Russian invasion ordered by Putin. At the same time, it raises our awareness about the absurdity of war. The most Impactful and heart-wrenching film I have watched in 2025.

Excellent Doc. Look up 'Tommy Gun on the Road to Kupyansk' if you want a Westerners viewpoint on Ukraine's frontline and similar kind of authentic documentary - but made by a soldier not a journalist.

This is a heart wrenching account of the horrible war in Ukraine. Of the sacrifices regular Ukrainian men and women are making to repel the atrocious invaders from their land. A must see, stuck with me for weeks.
