Review For Promised Land
This is a solid if at times too conventional tale of a classic moral conflict.Richard Roeper-Richard Roeper.com
[It's mostly] a well-wrought drama that feels genuine as it goes about spinning a tale worthy of our challenging times.
Lisa Kennedy-Denver Post
Promised Land is more effective as an anti-fracking screed than as a drama.
Peter Rainer-Christian Science Monitor
Damon and McDormand are terrific as co-workers seeking the same goal, though they see their work from different points of view.
Connie Ogle-Miami Herald
This isn't a movie about easy fixes, be they personal or political; it's a film about long-term problems.
Tom Long-Detroit News
Far too awkward and contrived a drama to change many hearts and minds.
Liam Lacey-Globe and Mail
As schematic as it is, "Promised Land" benefits from the tremendous appeal of its cast.
Greg Evans-Bloomberg News
Director Van Sant's heart doesn't appear to be quite in it.
Kelly Vance-East Bay Express
Gus Van Sant's fracking drama pits Matt Damon's energy executive against John Krasinski's eco-dreamboat in a battle for the minds of backwater farmers and the heart of Rosemarie DeWitt's moony schoolma'am.
Andrew Pulver-Guardian [UK]
The makers of Promised Land clearly object to fracking but attempt, not always successfully, to explore the issue without stacking the deck in favor of its viewpoint.
Mark Pfeiffer-Reel Times: Reflections on Cinema
In attempting to make 'Promised Land' more than a simple diatribe about the evils of fracking, director Gus Van Sant ('Good Will Hunting,' 'Milk') oddly makes the story seem less authentic.
Dan Lybarger-MovieMaker Magazine
Relateable
Diana Saenger-ReviewExpress.com
Promised Land is harmless but not compelling enough to warrant major attention.
Nick Nunziata-CHUD
... leaves little doubt which side it supports in terms of the drilling debate, but the predictable approach of this clumsy redemption story makes its impact less convincing.
Todd Jorgenson-Cinemalogue.com
Touching and believable.
Ron Wilkinson-Monsters and Critics
The end result is simply a fracking mess.
Matt Brunson-Creative Loafing
While Damon and Krasinski have penned likable, real characters, the story surrounding them is only sporadically compelling.
Chris Stuckmann-Moviedex
A one sided look at the argument against drilling for natural gas; Damon needs to entertain and stay off his soapbox.
Jackie K. Cooper-jackiekcooper.com
A dishonest film about duplicity.
Kirk Honeycutt-honeycuttshollywood.com
Though the crusading pic against fracking has its heart in the right place, the respectable narrative is too preachy to be entertaining or convincing drama.
Dennis Schwartz-Ozus' World Movie Reviews
Damon and Krasinski have crafted a very well thought out tale, one that comes across as "Local Hero" meets "Erin Brockovich."
Michael A. Smith-MediaMikes
It's rather unfortunate to note that Promised Land eventually becomes as one-sided as its premise might've indicated...
David Nusair-Reel Film Reviews
The film has plenty of smarts, good writing and solid performances to win over most everyone. (Full Content Review for Parents also available)
Jim Judy-Screen It!
Promised Land actually delivers a compelling human drama along with its message.
Perry Seibert-TV Guide's Movie Guide
The drama can be funny and romantic and occasionally moving. It has a bigger message about fracking and the environment, and big companies and small towns, and while Promised Land is not a great film, such ambition is not its intention.
Kirk Baird-Toledo Blade
