What are critics saying?

Los Angeles Times by Gary Goldstein
The film's overall presentation...feels a bit too cloistered and the subject perhaps too limited for feature-length attention.

Village Voice
Rather than investigating the harrowing circumstances surrounding each day's broadcast, Orner is content to let each inspiring aspect of the network speak for itself.

The A.V. Club by Ignatiy Vishnevetsky
The result is an uncritical, drama-free documentary that comes uncomfortably close to resembling a business-magazine puff piece.
