Darfur Now will have to act as a moral entertainment, a conscientious objection we buy tickets to see.

| Apr 28, 2011

While it's commendable that Cheadle and Clooney travel the world to promote awareness of the Darfur conflict, it doesn't necessarily make for a good 10 minutes of film.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Oct 18, 2008

A powerful testimony to the changes that may come when people make an effort to let their voices be heard.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jun 13, 2008

Thoughtful, sobering, hopeful, despairing, inspirational, depressing, and just in time for the holidays comes Darfur Now, a documentary about genocide in the Sudan.

| Dec 14, 2007

Darfur Now has drawn criticism for its artless construction, and while it's true, he knows to step aside and let the passion of his subjects shine through.

| Dec 10, 2007

Informative and effortlessly gripping.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4 | Dec 7, 2007

Slick, impassioned, and guardedly upbeat.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Dec 7, 2007

The title says Darfur Now -- not Darfur Then, not Darfur Sometime. But the question it asks emphatically is, Darfur Now What?

| Original Score: 3/4 | Dec 7, 2007

Braun is, in a sense, preaching to the choir...

| Original Score: 3/5 | Dec 7, 2007

A disquieting, and somewhat disjointed, call to arms.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Nov 17, 2007

This is a feel-good film for activists, which barely scratches the surface.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Nov 17, 2007

The depressing subtext is that even with detailed proof of ongoing genocide, it takes movie stars to get to the movers and shakers, and to get worthy movies like this one into theaters.

Admirable work.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4 | Nov 16, 2007

A rallying call to aid Darfur and an uplifting case study in the power of individuals to effect change.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4 | Nov 16, 2007

Darfur Now does one thing other documentaries on the region in western Sudan haven't done so far: It offers hope that something substantive may be done about the Darfur genocide.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Nov 15, 2007

If its explanation of Sudan's politics and history is rudimentary, Darfur Now maintains an effectively intense focus on the necessary work to save actual people in Darfur.

| Nov 14, 2007

Though well-intentioned, Braun's documentary never captures the emotional heart of this enormous tragedy and fails to ignite the passion he so obviously wants us to feel.

| Original Score: 6/10 | Nov 14, 2007

All the stories are fascinating.
