""Battle In Seattle" is a poignant depiction of a dire fight for justice that found traction over a period of several days, in a story that was misrepresented by the American media. Here then, is a closer view of those events and motivations of the people"  ColeSmithey.com  Cole Smithey

2.5/4
"...an entertaining yet heavy-handed and ultimately simplistic look at the '99 WTO protests that essentially turned Seattle into a war zone."  Reel Film Reviews  David Nusair

C-
"Watching it is like being jabbed in the belly with a police baton, and not in a good way."  EricDSnider.com  Eric D. Snider

"[Director Stuart] Townsend believes in the politics and the passion of the protesters; he makes their concerns heard over the media noise focused on the spectacle of conflict."  GreenCine  Sean Axmaker
