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.

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

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.

Unfortunately, I have to admit that the tenor of the movie is almost unbearably cheesy and sometimes verges on infomercial territory.

Rated: 5/10

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

This groundbreaking movie is inspiring and motivating because of all the spokespeople interviewed. It also explores the many benefits of mindful meditation. From a mindful meditation teacher's perspective this movie is a must have to show students and sangha members. Thank you for this beautiful reportage.
