      Audience Member Entertaining documentary, which has plenty of parallels with the Viking Energy saga in Shetland. Whether pro or anti wind farms you will find this an entertaining documentary. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member In an era of agenda-driven "documentaries," it is refreshing to see a successful exhibition of both sides of a highly-charged political issue, particularly because it remains entertaining and fast-paced from the first shot.

      Daniel M. Gold New York Times A documentary should give audiences insights they can't get elsewhere. Otherwise, it's just one more tumble in an endless media churn. Rated: 2/5 May 16, 2013 Full Review Ty Burr Boston Globe There's a story of money fighting money here that only gets half-told. Rated: 2.5/4 Jun 14, 2012 Full Review Nora Lee Mandel Film-Forward.com Just when you're either confused or made cynical by everyone's hypocrisy. . .optimism lifts the critical view to an unusually thoughtful perspective on environmental issues. Rated: 7/10 May 19, 2013 Full Review Peter Keough Boston Phoenix A dizzying look into the deceptive world of political activism, worth it for a glimpse at the making of a Daily Show segment alone. Rated: 3/4 Jun 14, 2012 Full Review Read all reviews
