What are critics saying?

88

New York Post by Linda Stasi

Not only an important series, but a darned good, action-packed one.

80

Chicago Tribune by Sid Smith

"Human Trafficking" manages edge-of-your-seat suspense and an unsettling blend of Dickensian horrors and documentary-style realism.

80

The New York Times by Alessandra Stanley

It is unusually good: a harsh public-service message built into a clever, suspenseful thriller.

75

Entertainment Weekly by Andrew Clevenger

The movie's tone teeters on the edge of self-righteousness, but the glassy-eyed numbness of the enslaved girls is a devastating portrayal of their living nightmare. [28 Oct 2005, p.77]

New York Daily News by David Hinckley

Some parts work well; others don't.

70

Newsday by Diane Werts

Like many Lifetime productions, this one is designed to make you stand up and take action on a hot-button issue. Unlike many, it's got the dramatic chops to keep you on your feet applauding.

60

Kansas City Star by Aaron Barnhart

It’s a grim two hours... But it’s not overly explicit, and the script and talent are better than most Lifetime films.

50

The Hollywood Reporter by Barry Garron

Perhaps inevitably, with all that focus on the educational component, the story gets short shrift.

50

Los Angeles Times by Paul Brownfield

"Human Trafficking" is at once a sobering, tough-to-watch dramatization about girls taken from the streets of their hometowns around the world and sold into sexual servitude and a clichéd drama about said topic.

50

People Weekly by Tom Gliatto

It's an awful story, and it deserves a better production than this. [31 Oct 2005, p.39]
