9/10
"Being suppressed by those who wanted [I Am Cuba] made in the first place is a vindication of sorts. Mere propaganda only reinforces the status quo. True art is revolutionary."  PopMatters  Chris Barsanti

B+
"The film fails to convince in its propaganda, but as a goofy view of a new Cuba it is heartily appreciated."  Ozus' World Movie Reviews  Dennis Schwartz

4/4
"I Am Cuba is a cinephile's wet dream, a collage of Herculean feats of technical wizardry that would be easy to dismiss if it wasn't so humane."  Slant Magazine  Ed Gonzalez

A
"visual impressions that will forever remain embedded in your mind's eye%u2014just as much as Picasso's La Guernica communicates the horrors of war"  Old School Reviews  John A. Nesbit

"Brilliant work of Soviet propaganda."  HotWired's Pop  Phil Hall

"Politics, propaganda and poetry are whipped into an exotic cinematic cocktail in Mikhail Kalatozov's delirious tribute to the Cuban revolution..."  Turner Classic Movies Online  Sean Axmaker
