      Siddhant Adlakha Variety “Agent of Happiness” uses meaningful visual contrast to scrutinize Bhutan’s narrative about itself. It re-injects a vibrant sense of nuance into an exercise that, though nominally geared toward gauging humanity, too often reduces it to a number. Jan 20, 2024 Full Review Andrew Parker The Gate A complex, observant, and bittersweet look at the nature of fulfilment viewed through the infrequently glimpsed lens of Bhutanese culture. Rated: 8/10 Apr 26, 2024 Full Review Grace Han Asian Movie Pulse What does it really mean to be happy? The film raises more questions than it does answers. While the film is not particularly grand in any manner, it is sure to at least provoke some introspection. Rated: 3.5/5 Feb 19, 2024 Full Review Ishita Sengupta OTTplay The Sundance-screened documentary follows two government-appointed happiness surveyors who are tasked with meeting people and gauging their happiness. Feb 6, 2024 Full Review Sarah Manvel Critic's Notebook Something this personal kind of inspires you to reflect as well. This is a lovely and kind documentary that handles big subjects with an unusual amount of honesty. Jan 30, 2024 Full Review Pat Mullen POV Magazine Agent of Happiness shows that the manner in which Bhutan measures contentment is unique, but life’s always better with a smile on one’s face. It’s a universal truth. Jan 30, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews
