Unless the source of this new energy is clean and non-CO2 emitting, the risk of triggering a devastating global climate catastrophe is all but certain. The magnitude of this dilemma, and the limitations of commonly proposed solutions, have left the mainstream environmental movement teetering between apocalyptic thinking and utter disarray. Plunging headfirst into this challenge comes PANDORA'S PROMISE, the highly anticipated and debated new film by acclaimed documentary filmmaker Robert Stone that recently premiered at the Sundance Film Festival. Three years in the making and filmed on four continents, this meticulously researched and beautifully crafted film asks whether the most viable option we have to tackle climate change might be the one technology we fear the most: nuclear power.

Pandora's Promise Movie Review | |
| Documenting how five authors changed from anti- to pro-nuke energy stances, Stone is less persuasive at translating this logic into reality. Bill Stamets-Chicago Sun-Times In the end, its somewhat equivocal message - that nuclear power might just be the lesser of several evils - is more convincing than you'd think. Michael O'Sullivan-Washington Post Like many advocacy documentaries, it offers a one-sided argument. This time, however, it's advanced by people who spent much of their lives on the opposite side. Colin Covert-Minneapolis Star Tribune Its marshaling of the facts is one-sided, leaving many questions, and considerable scientific evidence, unexplored. Steven Rea-Philadelphia Inquirer The pro-nuclear left grabs the bullhorn in this lively advocacy documentary. J. R. Jones-Chicago Reader The lack of opposing voices diminishes the film, even as Stone raises issues that shouldn't be discounted out of hand. Sheri Linden-Los Angeles Times Documentary filmmaker Robert Stone goes against the popular anti-nuke stance held by our society for many years and brings with him a bevy of anti-nuke turned pro-nuke environmentalists, activists and nuclear engineers. Robin Clifford-Reeling Reviews Pandora's Promise is a fascinating documentary about nuclear power that argues it is the true green energy. It would be hard to imagine a film more controversial than this one. Louis Black-Austin Chronicle Sure, it's a little one-sided, but so are most environmental films...Whether Stone sways you or not, you can afford to give 90 minutes toward setting the balance right. Jamie S. Rich-Oregonian With glaciers melting, seas rising and superstorms in the wings, Pandora's Promise, despite its one-sided polemics, revives a desperately needed conversation. Jane Sumner-Austin American-Statesman Sure to raise eyebrows. Kelly Vance-East Bay Express The result is a thoughtful documentary whose facts and figures have been compromised by Stone's one-sided approach. Dann Gire-Daily Herald (IL) Unfortunately, too many people confuse convincingly expressed belief with actual evidence about the true state of the world, and that's what Stone is banking on. Sarah Boslaugh-PopMatters It's a thought-provoker. Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)-St. Paul Pioneer Press Perfunctorily assembled, Pandora's Promise is essentially a pamphlet in motion whose goal is to prompt a larger discussion. But it offers plenty to discuss, and that isn't bad. Ben Kenigsberg-AV Club A one-sided argument to a debate worth revisiting. Roger Moore-McClatchy-Tribune News Service Rethinking Nuclear Energy Jean Lowerison-ReviewExpress.com | |
