Barry Hertz Globe and Mail The end result is an extremely important 75-minute education, but a lesson that is probably best for the classroom than the theatre. Nov 2, 2018 Full Review Anne Brodie What She Said The documentary looks at archaeological digs at the camp, gleaning information on living conditions, including slave labour, foiled attempts to escape and the hardships of starvation and Mother Nature. Nov 12, 2018 Full Review Jorge Ignacio Castillo Planet S Magazine In the rare instances where That Never Happened personalizes the consequences of the internment camps the film soars. Unfortunately, those moments are few and far in between. Rated: 2/5 Nov 9, 2018 Full Review Andrew Parker The Gate A bit rough around the edges, and there's a sense that there's still a lot more to talk about. It's better viewed as a jumping off point for a larger conversation about how reconciliation in such matters should be handled. Rated: 6.5/10 Nov 5, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews
