-Brandon Harris, Filmmaker Magazine "Critic's pick...Ranking with recent found-footage efforts like The Autobiography of Nicolae Ceausescu and Senna, yet joining a still longer lineage, Let the Fire Burn relentlessly sustains its tragic momentum."

-Nicolas Rapold, The New York Times[10] "The doc's focus on period material confers an in-the-moment feel to the final product, bringing urgency to a story many in the audience will never have heard but which remains relevant after almost three decades."

-Steven Rea, Philly.com[12] "Dispensing with the usual retrospective accounts and analytical chin-scratching, Osder creates both intensity and intimacy, inviting viewers simply to watch and listen as a tragedy – born of unchecked aggression, incoherent ideology and appallingly faulty logic – unfolds."

A clergyman, on the hearings panel, quietly reminds us what's at the heart of the entire, yearslong war between the police and MOVE: that it's possible to forget, in the heat of anger and procedure, that the person on the other side of a conflict is a human being."

By calmly and unsettlingly laying out a snapshot of a city's darkest moments, Let The Fire Burn transcends its era to speak to the troubling issues of class, race and power that still haunt America 28 years later."
