Reviews by Score:
Chicago Reader (Fred Camper)
Doesn't add up to much more than a series of pretty pictures, and Goldsworthy's gnomic statements about the "energy" he perceives in "the plants and the land" are never fully explored. ...read the complete Rivers and Tides: Andy Goldsworthy Working with Time movie review at Chicago Reader (Fred Camper)
BBC (Neil Smith)
Andy cuts an eccentric but likeable figure genuinely at a loss to explain where his inspiration comes from. ...read the complete Rivers and Tides: Andy Goldsworthy Working with Time movie review at BBC (Neil Smith)
Orlando Weekly (Steve Schneider)
When it's at its most self-aware, Rivers and Tides precociously tweaks the pessimist's view of art as an exercise in futility. ...read the complete Rivers and Tides: Andy Goldsworthy Working with Time movie review at Orlando Weekly (Steve Schneider)

Reverent and beautifully shot documentary. ...read the complete Rivers and Tides: Andy Goldsworthy Working with Time movie review at iofilm.co.uk (Rebort)
Planet Sick-Boy (Jon Popick)

You can easily lose yourself in Goldsworthy's absolutely gorgeous compositions. ...read the complete Rivers and Tides: Andy Goldsworthy Working with Time movie review at filmcritic.com (Christopher Null)
Arizona Republic (Richard Nilsen)
[Goldsworthy's] art is meant to be evanescent, like the nature he reveres. We are privileged to see it documented by the filmmaker's camera. ...read the complete Rivers and Tides: Andy Goldsworthy Working with Time movie review at Arizona Republic (Richard Nilsen)
Jam! Movies (Bruce Kirkland)
Rochester Democrat and Chronicle (Jack Garner)
If you're going to see Rivers and Tides , don't think of it as going to the movies. Think of it as a visit to an art gallery. ...read the complete Rivers and Tides: Andy Goldsworthy Working with Time movie review at Rochester Democrat and Chronicle (Jack Garner)
Washington Post (Paul Richard)
The trouble with this art movie is that it's more a movie than it's art. ...read the complete Rivers and Tides: Andy Goldsworthy Working with Time movie review at Washington Post (Paul Richard)
