Slant Magazine

Instead of delving into what lay behind John Allen Chau’s recklessness, the film scatters itself across multiple plot angles that confuse more than clarify.

Rated: 1.5/4

Chase Hutchinson

TheWrap

When there is already a documentary about this story, 2023’s “The Mission,” that approaches it with far more tact, this film feels not just unnecessary, but downright distasteful in how manipulative it is by comparison.

The Hollywood Reporter

Many viewers will no doubt feel initially disdainful of John’s recklessly dangerous pursuits, but the film presents his inner struggles so empathetically that by the end all you feel is sadness for a life tragically lost.

Like some spiritual cousin of Chris McCandless from Into the Wild, John longs for authenticity while being surrounded at every turn by people more ready to tell him how to live his life than to practice what they preach.

Rated: 3.5/4

Dave Giannini

Geek Vibes Nation

This movie wants to have its cake and eat it, too. Unfortunately, the audience, left wanting even a crumb, goes hungry. And this time, there are no miracles of the loaves and fishes to prove his point.

Rated: 3/10

Avi Offer

NYC Movie Guru

A dull, vapid and undercooked biopic that squanders its many opportunities to become a heartfelt and profound character study and emotional journey.
