An uplifting first-generation immigrant story that embodies the essence of the American dream. Dr. Wang’s amazing true story shines through, even if the storytelling feels a bit tepid.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Sep 12, 2024

This is a watchable drama about an inspirational true story, but the script could probably have used another pass, as it’s hard not to be frustrated by the amount of wasted potential.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Aug 6, 2024

What you see is what you get with this straightforward and uplifting – if somewhat bland – immigrant tale.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 31, 2024

...heavy-handed but effective as it delivers themes of personal triumph over adversity, forgiveness and compassion.

| Jul 30, 2024

Everyone involved knows exactly how to make this film and Sight flows, easily and without trouble.

| Original Score: 6.5/10 | Jul 26, 2024

Instead of being a collection of medical success stories from eye surgeon Dr. Ming Wang, Sight is a sprawling, faith-based biopic of Wang. There are good performances, but about half of the movie consists of too many flashbacks to his youth.

Very competent, Greg Kinnear's nice in a supporting role, but not sure it'll have the same legs [as Sound of Freedom].

Director Andrew Hyatt puts him [Dr. Wang] in a movie that just doesn’t know how to show his story beyond the click-points of a self-serious, true-story-based narrative that reeks of lazy filmmaking.

“Sight” is a superb example of how refreshing it can be to see a production where the only collisions are cultural clashes and the explosions are the result of explosive new ideas.

| Jun 13, 2024

It is certainly an eye-opener and a beautifully made film that reminds us of the resilience of the human spirit.

| Original Score: 7.5/10 | Jun 11, 2024

Sight is more than just a movie about Dr. Ming Wang and his amazing achievements in sight restoration. It’s an exploration of darkness and light.

| Jun 7, 2024

...inherently compelling subject matter that’s squandered by Hyatt right from the get-go...

| Original Score: 0/4 | Jun 5, 2024

This crowd-pleaser about a groundbreaking eye surgeon struggling to emerge from the darkness of the Cultural Revolution is heartfelt, if a bit too pat.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Jun 5, 2024

A film that goes into detail, and that is undoubtedly predictable, but that gives a lot of personal and divine reflection, how to find the inner light and what fills us as humans. [Full Review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jun 1, 2024

Sight has a profound message to convey, that being - “There is more to Life than what you see.”

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Jun 1, 2024

Every superhero has a back story, and this earnest biopic traces (Dr. Ming) Wang’s unlikely rise, along with the tragedies that fueled his ascent to the top of his field.

| Original Score: 3/5 | May 30, 2024

Scenes are played for maximum emotionality, with only the occasional glimpse of earthy authenticity. This approach feels very pushy, and would have had more impact if it let the audience discover the themes themselves.

| Original Score: 3/5 | May 28, 2024

It's moving, and it's an inspiring faith based adult drama that provides a bit of maturity if you're sick of over the top action movies or silly animated features.

| Original Score: 3/5 | May 28, 2024

“Sight” has a genuine hero in Dr. Ming Wang, and his story is well-served here.

| Original Score: 3/5 | May 27, 2024

The emotional depth of Sight balances science and faith, inspiring viewers with themes of family and friendship. Dr. Ming Wang's journey from oppression in China to becoming a legendary eye surgeon in America is a testament to perseverance and courage.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | May 24, 2024
