New York Times

The talking heads, who discuss events in the past tense, sap the protest material's momentum, and a score by Serj Tankian (who appears as a commentator) is unnecessarily manipulative.

I Am Not Alone is an inspiring portrait of democratic self-determination.

A perfect illustration of the domino effect-Parhinyan's theatrically solitary, stubborn push accumulated momentum until it had toppled a corrupt ruler and his entire government.

This unbelievably inspiring film is for anyone who doesn't believe in the power of protests.

Hammer to Nail

The magnificent I Am Not Alone is a call to action to all of us, for none of us are alone when we stick together. It's a comforting thought in these perilous times.

I Am Not Alone takes pains to make sure we not only know what exactly is happening at any given moment but also why.

The Armenian-American documentary film, 'I Am Not Alone' directed by Garin Hovannisian has unprecedented access to both sides of the 2018 Armenian revolution. The doc profiles opposition journalist turned politician Nikol Pashinyan and his remarkable voyage to attempt to shape shift Armenian policy and politics to favor the people and not the oligarchs. It is a hopeful, yet exhausting film in which we see just how quickly things can escalate and change. The key is to be humble and do what's right. The journey isn't always easy to watch, but the destination is miraculous. Final Score: 7/10

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars
