20 Days in Mariupol Ratings & Reviews
NPR
Linda Holmes
The act of editing all this footage down to about an hour and a half has to have been hugely challenging, but the result is outstanding.
The Film Stage
Alistair Ryder
Like many documentaries about conflicts still unfolding at the time of premiere, 20 Days in Mariupol is both essential and far from perfect.
Hey, Have You Seen ...?
Jared Mobarak
Yes, it's another harrowing call for audiences to bear witness. To have it told by those who documented it and risked their lives to protect it provides an additional layer that sets it apart.
Los Angeles Times
Robert Abele
Chernov's film is as unflinching an account of being trapped inside a city's fall as you're likely to see.
FilmWeek (LAist)
Peter Rainer
It's a very powerful movie, and some it is quite hard to watch.
AARP Movies for Grownups
Thelma Adams
The harrowing film, winner of the 2023 Sundance Film Festival Audience Award for World Cinema Documentary, records the disturbing sequences of a once-vital city being crushed while revealing the spirit of people who refuse to be leveled along the way.
San Francisco Chronicle
G. Allen Johnson
"I wish I could have done more," Chernov says in the film. But he and his team did plenty, and for that we owe them a debt.
Wall Street Journal
Kyle Smith
Grueling but vital, the documentary 20 Days in Mariupol takes us inside the atrocities visited on the strategically important Ukrainian port city in the early days of the Russian attack in 2022.
RogerEbert.com
Matt Zoller Seitz
[20 Days in Mariupol] goes on a short list of great documentaries that the viewer will never want to watch again and likely won't need to because some of the images are so gruesome and the context so upsetting that they'll be burned into your memory.
Rolling Stone
David Fear
20 Days in Mariupol gives you a sense of life during wartime that isn't an abstraction, some distant thing happening to people thousands of miles away.
New York Times
Jason Farago
A relentless and truly important documentary...
Harper's Bazaar
Tomris Laffly
Watching Chernov's film is a humanitarian duty.
RogerEbert.com
Nick Allen
[A] harrowing miracle of a film.
Ty Burr's Watch List (Substack)
Ty Burr
Exemplary journalism and irrefutable evidence for the Hague.
San Jose Mercury News
Randy Myers
It's both urgent and necessary and provides a complex time capsule of the war.
The Daily Beast
Nick Schager
A remarkable snapshot of the war crimes that-as the daily news reminds us-are still being perpetrated today.
Variety
Dennis Harvey
This nonfiction feature may not have a simple narrative arc, but the director's unpretentious first-person narration and the intensity of the war-crimes evidence compiled make it riveting nonetheless.
IndieWire
Adam Solomons
Access and shock value aside, the wholesale dismissal of Chernov's reporting by the Kremlin is the greatest endorsement there is.
The Hollywood Reporter
Frank Scheck
Grueling but necessary viewing.
Slant Magazine
Derek Smith
At its core, 20 Days in Mariupol is a testament to the citizens of Mariupol.
