Neely Tucker Washington Post A moving, stunning example of unadorned filmmaking. Oct 11, 2007 Full Review Wesley Morris Boston Globe One of the most staggeringly straightforward looks at death I've ever seen. The movie's grace note is its subtlety. Rated: 3/4 Oct 5, 2007 Full Review Jeff Shannon Seattle Times It thoughtfully illuminates a seemingly unsolvable problem while proving that one person really can make a difference. Rated: 4/4 Sep 28, 2007 Full Review Amber Wilkinson Eye for Film In essence, the story of the indomitable nature of the human spirit, the resilience and commitment of a few to help the many and a triumph of hope in adversity. Rated: 4/5 Jun 17, 2008 Full Review Marc Mohan Oregonian Angels in the Dust shows that compassion is a form of bravery. Rated: B+ Oct 19, 2007 Full Review Bob Strauss Los Angeles Daily News Angels in the Dust is a troubling documentary for obvious reasons...but it's also a bit disturbing for reasons director Louise Hogarth may not have noticed.
