"[A] compelling and alarming fact-based drama."
— Joe Clay, The Times (UK)
"Rachel Weisz is tremendously moving in this fact-based story."
— Thelma Adams, Us Weekly
"Gradually, as her investigation deepens, and we see the true hideousness of what she is uncovering, the movie achieves urgency and clarity of purpose."
— Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle
"In Canadian director Larysa Kondracki's gripping based-on-a-true-story debut feature The Whistleblower, Rachel Weisz delivers a subtle yet riveting performance."
— Jennie Punter, Globe and Mail
"Part thriller and part harrowing account of an outrageous, based-on-facts story of official corruption in the former Yugoslavia, "The Whistleblower" is a tense and shattering drama."
— Tom Keogh, Seattle Times
"The Whistleblower is a grisly, authentic, meticulously researched, pulse-quickening political chiller about a hot-button topic that will keep you on the edge of your seat from start to finish."
— Rex Reed, Observer
"These cases rarely seem to result in change, and the stories continue. We can only guess what may be going unreported. 'The Whistleblower' offers chilling evidence of why that seems to be so."
— Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
"Larysa Kondracki's first feature successfully avoids the major pitfalls of the activist docudrama: the main character's heroism never overshadows the larger issue at hand, nor does exposition gum up the storytelling."
— Ben Sachs, Chicago Reader
