100
Deep movie emotions for me usually come not when the characters are sad, but when they are good. You will see what I mean.
100
An extraordinary and effective film.
100
Emerges as an African version of "Schindler's List."
90
Magnificent.
80
It sweeps over you with blunt, unequivocal conviction.

Wall Street Journal
Hotel Rwanda isn't impersonal, even though it only hints at the story's full horror. It's stunning.
75
George has been criticized for simplifying a complex story into an African "Schindler's List." But despite flaws in execution, this is a film of rare courage and imperishable heart.
70
A political thriller based on fact that hammers every button on the emotional console.
70
The story it tells is such a wrenching one it cannot help but move us, especially when the performance of a lifetime by Don Cheadle is added to the mix.
58
Entertainment Weekly
A strange history lesson that leaves us more overlectured than properly overwhelmed.
