Bilge Ebiri Spirituality & Health As a film, The Mindfulness Movement is engaging, although it can get repetitive... May 1, 2020 Full Review Alissa Simon Variety Although the film doesn't go that deep... it could benefit from the curiosity of the anxious and distracted who are seeking tools to cope with stress. Apr 11, 2020 Full Review Matt Fagerholm RogerEbert.com Meditation could potentially emerge as one of the definitive remedies of our time, and it is sorely deserving of a better cinematic analysis than this bliss-faced bore. Rated: 1.5/4 Apr 10, 2020 Full Review Carla Hay Culture Mix It doesn't help that several methods that the movement endorses are basically repackaging and selling of concepts that people can get for free. It's why the tone of the film is very much like an ad campaign. Jul 16, 2020 Full Review Lorry Kikta Film Threat Unfortunately, I have to admit that the tenor of the movie is almost unbearably cheesy and sometimes verges on infomercial territory. Rated: 5/10 Apr 11, 2020 Full Review Jim Schembri 3AW Those who are into mindfulness will no doubt find this film an informative prep kit of uplifting anecdotes and inspirational interviews. Still, it plays like an extended commercial. It could have done with more rigourous inquiry and a dose of skepticism. Rated: 2.5/5 Apr 9, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews
