The Globe and Mail (Toronto) by

Somewhat incredibly, the buildings come to life: Kaspar Astrup Schröder puts Ingels's remarkable communication skills to work through a series of sketches and chats, and then shows us the finished products.

Village Voice by Chris Packham

Director Kaspar Astrup Schröder’s gorgeous film is informed by that same charm and intelligence the way a sailboat is informed by 7 knots of westerly breeze.

The Hollywood Reporter by Frank Scheck

Articulate, charismatic, engaging and clearly brilliant, Ingels seems to have captivated the filmmaker so much that Big Time suffers as a result. Neither scholarly enough to fully satisfy architecture buffs nor distinctive enough as a biographical portrait, it falls somewhere in the bland middle.

The Film Stage by John Fink

Schroder and his subject do have a nice casual familiarity; hopefully he’ll check in on Ingels every ten years or so.
