“Unlike many political documentaries, this big-hearted, well-made film is genuinely interested in understanding both sides.”
- Chris Hewitt (St. Paul), St. Paul Pioneer Press
“...shows a skilled hand at documentary filmmaking, entertaining above all.”
- Norm Schrager, Filmcritic.com
“Focuses not on stereotypes but on human beings, who are a lot more complicated than red-and-blue, and the way political strategies touch their lives.”
- Jette Kernion, Cinematical
“Modigliani is there from the beginning which helps bring potency and unexpected tragedy to the lives of both Bush’s local supporters and his dissenters.”
- Erik Childress, eFilmCritic.com
“Immensely even-handed, entertaining, and because of the heroic determination of soft-spoken Misti Turbeville, incredibly affecting.”
- Joshua Tyler, CinemaBlend.com
