Linda and Al Lerner Movies and Shakers Schwartzberg wanted to make this to help solve the disconnect we feel from friends, family and even from ourselves so we can feel good about life once again. There is much to be reminded to be thankful for as we head into the holiday season. Nov 3, 2022 Full Review Sabrina McFarland Common Sense Media For older kids and teens, this feel-good film is an inspiring teaching tool about the gift of gratitude. Rated: 4/5 Nov 1, 2022 Full Review Avi Offer NYC Movie Guru An enlightening, breathtaking and nourishing feast for the heart, mind and soul. Sep 15, 2022 Full Review Douglas Davidson Elements of Madness ... [director Louie] Schwartzberg weaves together an exploration of gratitude that’s as much stream of consciousness as it is an organized collection of thoughts, notions, and aspects of consideration.

Jason John M This film is truly inspirational , pointing us towards the one feeling that truly makes us feel filfilled .Also allowing us to see how important our connections are with friends, loved ones , your fellow man ,also our higher power and the many mindblowing works of art expressed in nature .We are one of those works of art ,gods greatest work.If we all adopted this template of relationship deeply rooted in reverance for a symbiotic relationship with nature the world would be a more joyful place ,a more balanced and correspondingly loving existance .This film concentrates on what is truly important in life , not what we are told is important...i am truly grateful for everyone involved in this film . Thank you for existing , this film gave me chills down my spine and changed my lense on how i view the world ...this film speaks to ones very soul .Much gratitude Louie Shwarztberg!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/21/22 Full Review gail w My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed watching this beautifully made movie. inspiring, motivating, wonderful scenes of nature and reminder to stay positive and grateful every day Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Laura S Gratitude Revealed is visually rich, emotionally immersive, and totally unforgettable -- a tapestry of stories from the exquisiteness of the natural world to a myriad of voices from unique walks of life -- all captivating, meaningful, and poignant. It is one heartfelt moment after another. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/19/22 Full Review Ranny L A thought-provoking piece, Gratitude Revealed shows promise in its concept and features gorgeous footage, but falters to keep viewers engaged in the film past the midway mark. Composed of stunning nature footage and high-profile interviews, Gratitude Revealed shows us how to live a more meaningful life full of thankfulness through filmmaker Louie Schwartzberg's conversations with everyday people and eminent personalities. Featured are chats with figures like Norman Lear, Deepak Chopra, Jack Kornfield and more. The film makes the point that we need a pathway back from the disconnection we feel in our lives, within ourselves, and with others. The thought behind this film is remarkable. However, the substance of the film is revealed painfully slowly, and some of the insights are rather obvious. It is unfortunate that the film lacks momentum and vibrancy beyond cinematography, as this makes it a difficult watch for young viewers accustomed to a faster pace of cinema. If it was the intent of the filmmaker to slow down viewers caught in the rat race of life, he certainly achieved it… almost too well. The camera work and editing in Gratitude Revealed are the highest points of the film, along with the cachet of the big names Schwartzberg speaks with. I especially love the way the interviews are framed. I feel that some of the interviews are way too long and tedious. It sometimes feels as if the nature shots are being used to compensate for the repetition of certain points. This leads to Gratitude Revealed feeling less like a documentary and more like an experimental film. Gratitude Revealed promotes finding joy in the small things in life and just "being." It's a beautiful message that is perfect for the Thanksgiving season. I give Gratitude Revealed 3.5 stars out of 5 and recommend it for ages 12 to 18, plus adults. Gratitude Revealed releases on VOD November 1, 2022. By Eshaan M., KIDS FIRST! Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 11/02/22 Full Review sam h Pretty images. But nothing revolutionary about gratitude. I learned more from Oprah Daily E-Class (about how to really use gratitude, and what juices it up). I'm grateful for documentary films like this, but this missed the mark for me. If it wasn't called gratitude revealed I would be like "okay, nice work" but nothing was revealed. Maybe redo title and no problem. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review virginia p So Inspiring! Loved Fantastic Fungi so I had high hopes for this film and was not disappointed. The reminder that many of us need that life can be beautiful and to appreciate it. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Read all reviews
