Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com
This strange experiment in filmed conversation finds three people--a physicist, a poet, a politician--yammering about the environment, science, art, government, and much else, all in an effort either to find or to dispute connections between disparate subjects. There is no story, as such--just lots of chatter (much of it not particularly profound) shot against a variety of picturesque backgrounds. If director Bernt Capra thought this would turn out to be another My Dinner with André, that fantasy falls on its face. --Tom Keogh

5.0 out of 5 stars Mind Walk is a gift to be savored time and time again. . . ., June 11, 2000
At first glance, this video may seem a bit dry. After all, how intersting can it be to listen to a poet, politician and physicist talking about quantum physics and worldviews, right? The answer to that question lies deep in your heart, soul and consciousness. If you watch this movie, you cannot help but view the world through an entirely different lens.

Each member of our family has enjoyed the richness of Mind Walk several times. Our children range in age from 13 to 20 and we find this is a wonderful way to open their minds to the challenges of clinging to a Cartesian worldview. Sharing the movie as a family sparks amazingly deep conversations about the important issues that face our generations. We have noticed a quickening in their understanding of the holistic view of nature, man and the universe. Our two oldest children have used Mind Walk to write papers for school on the emerging worldview. What a gift to learn about this open and hopeful way of viewing the world at their age! My husband and I only wish we had learned of this in our teens rather than waiting until we were adults to fully understand the interconnectedness of all living things - and that all of nature is enchanted and alive.

I recommend this video to you, your family, your friends and acquaintances. It is a gift to your soul and the souls of others - from the soul of the world.

5.0 out of 5 stars A movie to be experienced with your whole being..., November 17, 1999
By "tmalates" (Lakewood, OH United States) - See all my reviews
I too have watched this one multiple times. Music by Phillip Glass, poetry by Pablo Neruda, physics by Fritjof Capra... The interplay among the diverse personalities of poet (philosopher), politician (pragmatist), and physicist (intellectual) is beautifully orchestrated and wonderfully inclusive. The illustrative presentations of extremely complex subjects, as well as the "inconclusiveness" of the film's "message" is what draws you back time and again. We are left wiser in our understanding, but it is left to each of us to figure out what it means for us on a personal level. Just as with the characters of the film, you are left feeling as if you have truly reached a "Turning Point" in your own life. It is truly a movie for the mind, but watch it with your whole heart and soul.

5.0 out of 5 stars A film is as distinguished by its detractors as by its fans, January 28, 2005
I love this film...preachy? Well, of course it is, but it's also lyrical and beautiful. Pretentious? No, just ambitious. Those who want us all to remain in a comfortable (for them) Skinner box built of one form of orthodoxical ignorance or another, will not like it. Those of us who live in the world of thinking the unthinkable...our time among the red-colored drapes...will love this film.
