Reviews

IndieWire -
The most impressive thing about In the Land of Blood and Honey is that Jolie makes you feel it.
|
|
Time Out -
Occasionally, the movie italicizes its points with heavy musical drones, but its tone is remarkably even and concentrated: It makes sense that Jolie excels at stewarding the scenes she usually tears apart onscreen: two people struggling in an emotional death grip, the camera up close.
|
|
New York Daily News -
It is how the film never loses sight of the closeness of the combatants, turning national intimacy into a tragic casualty.
|
|
The Hollywood Reporter -
Jolie deserves significant credit for creating such a powerfully oppressive atmosphere and staging the ghastly events so credibly, even if it is these very strengths that will make people not want to watch what's onscreen.

|
Movieline -
In the Land of Blood and Honey is gratifyingly short on lectures and, interestingly, on history lessons.
