United Kingdom	William Thomas Empire	"One of the most beautiful audiovisual experiences of the year (…) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United Kingdom	Anthony Quinn The Independent	"[It] offers a vivid portrait of the lonely, craggily beautiful landscapes to which the band's music (...) makes an eerie complement."	POS
United States	Tal Rosenberg Chicago Reader	"A powerful experience on a great sound system after a couple joints, but it's a dull and oddly morose subject for a movie"	NEU
United Kingdom	Peter Bradshaw The Guardian	"I was utterly captivated by this rockumentary (…) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United Kingdom	Edward Lawrenson Screendaily	"The connection between these scenes of Iceland's natural beauty and Sigor Ros' music is well made (...) Technically the film is a polished, slick affair"	POS
