The Hollywood Reporter

Lusztig has crafted a quietly stirring composite portrait, a kaleidoscopic chronicle of a complicated legacy.

TheWrap

“Richland” is a thought-provoking and important documentary that is unafraid to lay bare how people embrace destruction if there is a place for them inside it.

Michael J. Casey

Boulder Weekly

Richland contributed to the war effort, but the effects are still lingering, and documentarian Irene Lusztig embeds herself in a town grappling with the long shadow of the 20th century.

Rated: 3.5/5

Film Inquiry

With the buzz surrounding the hype of the upcoming Oppenheimer, the lackluster representation of Richland weighs heavy.

Hammer to Nail

The great appeal of the documentary is this very panoply of thought, showing that the world can exist in shades of gray.

Alan French

Sunshine State Cineplex

Richland becomes a microcosm of America in 2023, with traditional values coming to blow with self-reflexive, progressive ideologies. It makes Lusztig’s film even more powerful.

Rated: 8/10
