86/100
"Director Baichwal capably bridges the gap between Burtynsky's objective photos and the audience's desire to be emotionally engaged by the material."  Apollo Guide  Dan Jardine

"Some images in 'Manufactured Landscapes' fascinate like the snake, a color beauty mark surrounded by at times unidentifiable ugliness."  ReelTalk Movie Reviews  Donald J. Levit

B+

4/5
"An extraordinary documentary that helps us understand the full sweep and implications of the "Made in China" label."  Spirituality and Practice  Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat

8/10
"Burtynsky's awe-inspiring work ultimately speaks for itself."  Window to the Movies  Jeffrey Chen

3/4
"Manufactured Landscapes is a film very much aware of its own existence, of the mechanisms that brought it about, yet it never again reaches the transcendental heights of its pre-credits prelude."  Slant Magazine  Keith Uhlich

3.5/5

6/10
"A film in search of a subject."  Antagony & Ecstasy  Tim Brayton
