Movie Reviews of Baraka

Movie Review: Magical, Mystical, and Breathtaking
Summary: 5 Stars

This is THE film that will put you in touch with your spiritual side faster than any other audio-visual experience. If you are the type of person who actually understood the power of silence, the breathtaking panoramas, and the sonic tapestries shown in the film "Chronos" or even "2001: A Space Odyssey", you will love this gorgeous film. You will end up playing this over and over. When I feel everyday life is pressuring me, or I am caught up in my own little world of stress, I play this disc and at the end, my perspective has changed and I no longer feel my worries are important.. This is heaven, my friends.

Movie Review: Visually stunning, it will stir your soul
Summary: 5 Stars

A very beautiful film with stunning imagery of 24 countries combined. You can tell that a lot of love and care went into making this film. I can understand why some people would be frustrated that there are no captions or commentary that comes with it, the commentary is at the end of the film. I felt if that were included in the film itself, it would somehow take away the beauty of the film. It was meant to be an experience, an adventure, not something that you need to comprehend. Very nice to meditate to and really soothes the soul. It makes you quiet your inward thoughts and stirs something deep within. I highly recommend it.

Movie Review: Addicting Spiritual Experince!
Summary: 5 Stars

Baraka in one word is addicting! If one understands the concept that the important is not where you are but is "what's there?", this film can be a spiritual, emotional, life changing journey.
It is addicting just because every time one whatches the film, deeper he/she goes and more is found there, beyond the images. The scenery an sondtrack are so rich and work so well together that this sinergy actually makes the film being felt as emotions.
For me it works as a therapy.
If you want to have the ultimate experience go for a big screen TV set and a 5.1 stereo sistem. But beware cause you may fly!

Movie Review: Worth the Upgrade!
Summary: 5 Stars

The Special Collector's Edition of Baraka is worth buying even if you already own the previous DVD version (as I do). I was disappointed in the previous DVD because I felt that the image was grainy. I even wondered if my memory of the original movie presentation was too rosy because the DVD image just wasn't that great. The new version erases all of my misgivings. The picture quality is tremendous and the upgraded soundtrack is also amazing. Buy this DVD! If you've never seen this movie, you'll be blown away. If you already have it, give your present copy away and treat yourself to this one. You'll be glad you did.

Movie Review: Trancendence
Summary: 5 Stars

This film has a trancendental quality that draws its viewers out of the immediate world around them and allows them become one with the world. What I liked most about the film is that, even though there is no central plot, it demands much from the viewer. I sat there and found myself asking question after question. I also appreciate that it avoids being a sappy environmental film by being critical of unchecked urbanization and what it is doing to the human soul. It pleased me greatly that the students from our school also walked away with the desire to ask "the good questions". I highly recommend this film.
