Review of DamNation (2014) by Virginiastock — 20 May 2014
I went expecting the film to be tedious and preachy. It is just the opposite. In an exciting and visually compelling way it gets you to feel that our wild rivers are an important part of America's heritage, and many are now messed up with obsolete dams.
The editing, cinematography and soundtrack are all really good - hats off to Travis Rummel and Ben Knight, also Matt Stoecker and Yvon Chouinard.. There is a surprising amount of fun in the movie - illegal vandalism, nudity in Glen Canyon, plenty of C4 as dams are removed.
They have made a real movie here, not just a political documentary. I look forward to seeing whatever they do next. Go see this movie, or if necessary rent it.
