You’re right not to trust a film critic who calls a movie “stunning.” But let me say this about Human Flow, the epic new documentary surveying the scope of the global refugee crisis, from Chinese artist-activist Ai Weiwei: It stunned me, in the truest sense of the word.

Ai’s approach occasionally tips too far toward aestheticizing a dire situation.

With its epic scale and global reach, Human Flow is a powerful testament to a shameful crime against humanity.
