Reviews

The obvious political agenda behind Before the Flood may turn off those who still maintain that climate change is a myth, but the evidence presented in the film should at least cause open-minded viewers to rethink their position on the issue.
75
One of the most interesting things when watching Before The Flood is noting how the tone has changed in reference to climate change in just a decade.
75
It should all resemble a vanity project except for one thing: The film lays out the case for reform with steadfast rigor.
70
A sober, thoughtful documentary that combines a lament for a lost Eden with a rousing call to action.
70
Before the Flood is neither dull screed nor stat-heavy pamphlet, thanks largely to the questing intensity of its marquee guide.
