	Media	Author	Review
		Dennis Harvey Variety	"Expertly juggling suspense and various narrative strands (...) Packing a lot into a short narrative time span without seeming overstuffed"
		Deborah Young The Hollywood Reporter	"A trip more humanistic than gripping (...) The distinguishing feature of 'The Journey' (...) is its sober moral perspective on the war that devastated Iraq and reduced its people to orphans"
		Wendy Ide Screendaily	"What the film lacks is a sense of context (...) The main narrative moves at a brisk pace"
		Vassilis Economou Cineuropa	"The director succeeds in incorporating every aspect that made up Iraqi society at that turning point"
