      Gary Goldstein Los Angeles Times In short, it's pretty but dull. Rated: 2.5/5 Jul 23, 2010 Full Review Tim Grierson L.A. Weekly At a time when most advocacy documentaries aim for righteous fury, Tomoko Kana's Beautiful Islands is so gentle that it's practically radical by comparison. Jul 22, 2010 Full Review John Anderson Variety An extraordinarily eloquent synthesis of imagery and urgency. Jul 6, 2010 Full Review Avi Offer NYC Movie Guru Breathtaking, captivating and inspirational. It's a non-preachy, vital wake-up call for all of mankind. Rated: 9.62/10 Jul 1, 2010 Full Review Kam Williams NewsBlaze A heartbreaking expose' which leaves no doubt that dramatic environmental changes are unfolding at every latitude, whether they be the consequences of human overconsumption of fossil fuels or merely the hand of God.
