Ann Hornaday Washington Post Stodgily structured by intercutting grisly stock footage with talking heads and muddy videos of Poets Against the War events, Voices in Wartime isn't nearly as cinematically inspiring as many of the poets it brings to light. Apr 15, 2005 Full Review Tom Keogh Seattle Times An overview of the historic relationship between war and poetry. Rated: 3/4 Apr 15, 2005 Full Review Jonathan Curiel San Francisco Chronicle An important new documentary that looks at the ways in which poetry helps people come to terms with conflict. Rated: 4/4 Apr 15, 2005 Full Review Maria Garcia Film Journal International An absorbing and eye-opening documentary about war poetry. Mar 1, 2007 Full Review Tim Appelo Seattle Weekly One of the most original war movies ever made. Men die miserably every day for lack of what is found there. Rated: 8/10 Apr 15, 2005 Full Review Peter Canavese Groucho Reviews Making poetry cinematic requires greater imagination than King evinces...If the medium isn't always as sturdy as the message, that's a fault that can be readily overlooked. Rated: 2.5/4 Apr 10, 2005 Full Review Read all reviews
