"'End of the Spear' features some intensely violent scenes, but this thought-provoking movie never falters in emphasizing the power of forgiveness."  ReelTalk Movie Reviews  Betty Jo Tucker

"Jim Hanon's film is so awkward and anachronistic that it raises more questions than answers."  PopMatters  Cynthia Fuchs

1.5/4
"The Waodanis await a film that humanely considers their conversion as intensely as this film single-mindedly sanctifies those who turned them away from killing."  Slant Magazine  Ed Gonzalez

B-
"Only marginally uplifting and just passably enjoyable as a film. I know in my mind that these experiences were extraordinary for the people involved, but I never really feel it."  EricDSnider.com  Eric D. Snider

5/5
"One of the best films ever made about the courage and compassion that is at the heart of the Christian path of nonviolence."  Spirituality and Practice  Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat

B-
"Even with subtitles, it is a little hard to follow and it sometimes veers into Sunday school-style sugar. But the story has great power and the film-makers resist condescending to the natives."  Movie Mom at Yahoo! Movies  Nell Minow

1.5/5
"devoid of suspense and resonance"  Filmcritic.com  Pete Croatto
