Ai Weiwei: Without Fear or Favour Audience Reviews

Doomtomylo a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.
Tayloriona Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
Lidia Draper Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.
Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
