Critic Reviews
The Onion (A.V. Club) | Scott TobiasAdd Critic to Favorites
The value of No Impact Man, a compelling and suitably exasperating documentary about one family’s attempt to not harm the environment for a year, is that it forces viewers to reflect on their own casual consumption and waste.Read the full review
Boston Globe | Ty BurrAdd Critic to Favorites
It’s like Sinatra said: If you can make (do without) it there, you can make (do without) it anywhere. The movie leaves it up to you.Read the full review
San Francisco Chronicle | David LewisAdd Critic to Favorites
It may not be the greatest of cinematic exercises, and it often feels contrived, but this documentary somehow is enlightening, ridiculous, foreboding and funny at the same time.Read the full review

Capone's Art-House Round-Up with Campion's BRIGHT STAR, NO IMPACT MAN, AMREEKA, and THE BURNING PLAIN!!!
09/17/09 While all of the performers in writer-director Jane Campion's long-overdue return to the lives of cloistered women in frocks who want nothing more than to tear them off for the right man (or possibly the wrong man) are quite good, but I find it quite funny that American Paul Schneider (AWAY WWE GO, THE ASSASSINATION OF JESSE JAMES, LARS AND THE REAL GIRL, "Parks and Recreation") completely swipes every scene that he's in away from the film's stars. | Ain't It Cool News -
