REVIEWS

:: Hot Docs
Follow along on a hardcore, risk-filled, scientific adventure into the heart of the Big Bang. - Myrocia Watamaniuk, Hot Docs International Film Festival

:: Doc-a-Day Blogspot
A review of a documentary that does everything right...an adventure tale with twists and turns, lively characters, and some lessons about life, the universe and everything.

Devlin understands a few things about storytelling: building strong characters, having a solid story arc, and stripping down complex ideas to the bare essentials the audience needs to know. It's a film about the thirst for knowledge, ingenuity, obsessiveness, and humans' attempts to know.

:: EasternBlot Blog
All in all, BLAST! was a blast! I loved that it was so very much focused on the work, not just on the results...That's science in action.

:: Sympatico/ MSN Blog
Pretty awesome stuff if you are a geek like me. Beyond the pure science, there is a very human side to the story.
