Linbeymusol Wonderful character development!

Softwing Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??

Casey Duggan It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny

Rosie Searle It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

framptonhollis Shot in well over twenty countries, filmed in what seems to be each and every continent, Baraka is an epic quest of humanity, nature, spirituality, and beautiful photography. Proudly showing off a variety of unique and visually astonishing techniques, Baraka is a technical marvel on every front. The cinematography is filled with exuberance, color, and unbelievable skill. The people and places visited are fascinating in there own right, and everything is made all the more mysterious, and therefore all the more fascinating, due to the lack of narration, narrative, convention, or even any spoken words. Everything is communicated through visuals and music, and whatever it is that is being communicated surpasses the power, depth, and intrigue of almost any film that utilizes the spoken word at all.

inioi There may be many approaches when choosing film as a medium of communication.The concept of music and images without the contribution of a spoken script, leaves the viewer with a much greater possibilities of interpretation. We have to keep in mind that it is almost mandatory to plunge in the movie through these two unique means in order to let go. Then the experience should be more direct and pure.The result is a highly sensory and spiritual cinematic experience. The approach is totally unbiased. Do not judge or criticize anything. Only presents the images as they are, without the intervention of the spoken or written. I've read some reviews that the film has a message (enviromental, etc...).The movie has no message.No message at all.My view: As a result, IMHO the movie makes us see the world, not as a small part of the picture, (in fact, is what we see in all the movies), but as the the whole picture. Also, being a broader perspective on the human condition, it becomes easier to see ourselves not as individuals, but as a small part of a huge and complex mechanism which is Planet Earth.This approach would also apply to the chaos and randomness which are our lives seems to be tied. The movie makes us aware of the ephemeral nature of each situation, which is due to the impermanence of all forms, good or bad, life and death. Ultimately, all this might suggest the existence of a deployment of a higher order and purpose.Just for introspective viewers. 10/10

Umang Shukla Baraka showed, how we were a part of nature and how we detached ourselves from it, to become a being, who are just using/abusing nature and where it have lead us to. Baraka explores the most beautiful and breathtaking landscapes one can ever imagine. Director Ron Fricke used a special time lapse camera that he invented for this film. He had used his imagination in the ways that will blow your mind. I loved this movie for the way The Earth was explored and how the small pieces were put together to show nature, landscapes, wildlife, culture, believes, society, industrialization, urbanization, war. Most amazing thing is the usage of time lapse camera, and i can watch those scenes again and again. This is a must watch for nature-lovers.

elmserybasha people don't feel like human beings unless those things do exist in their lives : * Order : which couldn't be achieved without "Respect" and there is no respect without "Morals" , and there wouldn't be morals without "Rules" to follow which means "order" !~! * Production : And that is what we are meant to do ... we are created to work * Civilization : people with no past has no future ... knowledge is the mile stone of civilization * Art : is the radical , ultimate reflection of civilization ... no matter which kind , what really matters is how does it represent you & the culture of your community ?! * Army : all of the above will be of no value without a proper defense * Union : the human is a weak creature who can't live alone , always needs support & interaction ... bonds between people are like spaces between atoms in a matter ... (the closer they are , the stronger it will be) !! * first of all and above all of that people need to "Believe" , they always need correction , rules to follow , brain searching for concept ,& heart seeking faith ... full their emptiness and feel like normal .. "Religion" is a collection of believes that shape our lives & without it we will be like dead bodies walking in an infinite dark road !!! "Baraka" : great tribute from the far east be to : " Ron Fricke " & "Michael Stearns" you are genius !
