Review For Chasing Ice |
Global Warming? "Seeing is believing." Roger Moore-McClatchy-Tribune News Service
The most important documentary of the year. Tom Long-Detroit News
"Chasing Ice" is a grand adventure, a visual amazement and a powerful warning. Colin Covert-Minneapolis Star Tribune
If you're looking for eye-popping evidence that the world's glaciers are melting, don't miss the small-scale but spectacular documentary, Chasing Ice. Owen Gleiberman-Entertainment Weekly
The rapid disappearance of ice mountains, filmed over a period of years, is compressed through time-lapse technology into minutes and seconds. The speeded-up effect is harrowing and also, disturbingly, eerily beautiful. Peter Rainer-Christian Science Monitor
The movie might have given us a bit less of Balog and a bit more of the startling sequences he produced. Walter V. Addiego-San Francisco Chronicle
Chasing Ice will open your eyes to a world you've never seen before and it will make you think. But whether any of us can change anything is a different matter altogether. Graham Young-Birmingham Mail
While skeptics continue to doubt global warming is a man-made phenomenon - Rush Limbaugh called warnings about it "garbage science" - "Chasing Ice" leaves little doubt it is occurring. Duane Dudek-Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
It's an absorbing and vital watch. Gail Tolley-The List
It's like watching our world disappear. Philip French-Observer [UK]
A few scientists pop their heads in here, a few charts are deployed, but Chasing Ice is powered primarily by the imagery, stark, irrefutable evidence that the planet is warming, not in one or two isolated places but everywhere. MaryAnn Johanson-Flick Filosopher
"Chasing Ice" is a beautiful film to watch, especially on the big screen. But the documentary's visual pleasures come with a heavy dose of guilt. Rob Thomas-Capital Times (Madison, WI)
It's sobering stuff but the film's impact is somewhat diminished by Orlowski's reverential profile of Balog, who continues to crusade despite the toll his endeavours have taken on his body. David Parkinson-Radio Times
The documentary feels a little slight but the images speak for themselves ... Allan Hunter-Daily Express
Is this about the hazards of global warming or the awesomeness of James Balog? Not entirely sure... David Jenkins-Little White Lies
If any film can convert the climate-change sceptics, Chasing Ice would be it: here, seeing really is believing. Mike McCahill-Guardian [UK]
While more detailed scientific analysis and greater discussion of impacts would have been welcome, the film's visual rhetoric is solid. Peter Canavese-Groucho Reviews
National Geographic photographer James Balog illustrates climate change with time-lapsed records of glacial retreat. Tim Robey-Daily Telegraph
A project of heroic, Herzogian endeavour. Mad, you might say. But probably not as mad as what the rest of us are doing about climate change: namely almost nothing. Nigel Andrews-Financial Times
Utterly engaging in its demonstration of the planet's shocking climate change and is thoroughly absorbing to watch. Jennifer Tate-ViewLondon
Chasing Ice is a uniquely visual adventure with a chilling message warmed by Balog's humanity. Danny Scott-The Skinny
Still an eco-sceptic? Clap your eyes on this lot. Awe-inspiring, terrifying, transcendently beautiful, and absolutely weighted with significance for the future of the planet. Trevor Johnston-Time Out
This is a well made Documentary that becomes very involving because it's just as much about Balog's journey as it is about global warming. Austin Kennedy-Film Geek Central
