'Almost Sunrise' presents a journey that is very much worth the time of anyone who's concerned about the effect war has on our brothers and sisters who fight -- which should translate to 'everyone.' Go to Full Review Neil Genzlinger New York Times 07/13/2017

The more institutional issue could be explored more. But the documentary does such an excellent job of what it does choose to focus on that it's hardly missed. Go to Full Review Andrew Parker The Gate 08/28/2018
Almost Sunrise is as empathetic and touching as any look at PTSD that I've ever seen, and anyone with a family member going through something similar owes it to themselves to see this film. Go to Full Review Bradley Gibson Film Threat 07/14/2017

03/03/2018 This movie is a must-see for all-Veterans and civilians alike. Itvis very inspirational as it correctly tells the story of the hidden struggles of a veteran. I like the idea that the Veterans in the movie found an alternative to medicinal treatment that helped them become productive part of the nation's workforce today. Good job to the actors and director as well as all the veteran supporters out there.
