It holds a 90/100 on Metacritic[2] and a 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.[5] In The New York Times, Jeannette Catsoulis wrote that "this cool and incisive snapshot of global capitalism at work is as remarkable for its access as for its refusal to judge."[6] Alan Scherstuhl of The Village Voice opined that the film "is no simple screed against tick-like profiteers growing fat on malnourished hosts," but instead "a richly detailed portrait".[7]In The Washington Post, Stephanie Merry argued, "Boynton’s most impressive feat in “Big Men” is how she takes an impossibly convoluted scenario, makes sense of it and tells a story that’s riveting on its own but also serves as a parable about greed and human nature."[8] References1. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://bigmenthemovie.com/filmmakers/|title=Big Men The Movie: Filmmakers|accessdate=February 7, 2017}} 2. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.metacritic.com/movie/big-men|title=Big Men Reviews|work=Metacritic|accessdate=February 7, 2017}} 3. ^{{cite magazine|url=http://www.variety.com/exec/rachel-boynton|title=Rachel Boynton|magazine=Variety|accessdate=February 7, 2017}} 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://bigmenthemovie.com/|title=Big Men The Movie|accessdate=February 7, 2017}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/big_men_2013/|title=Big Men (2014)|website=Rotten Tomatoes|accessdate=February 7, 2017}} 6. ^{{cite news|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2014/03/14/movies/big-men-looks-at-ghanaian-oil-discovery.html?&_r=0|title=Oil Money, and Where It Flows|last=Catsoulis|first=Jeannette|newspaper=The New York Times|date=March 14, 2014|accessdate=February 7, 2017}} 7. ^{{cite news|url=http://www.villagevoice.com/film/big-men-reveals-how-the-world-of-oil-actually-turns-6441243|title=Big Men Reveals How the World of Oil Actually Turns|last=Scherstuhl|first=Alan|newspaper=The Village Voice|date=March 12, 2014|accessdate=February 7, 2017}} 8. ^{{cite news|url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/goingoutguide/movies/big-men-movie-review-pandoras-box-filled-with-black-gold-in-africa/2014/03/26/ecdf71ec-b049-11e3-a49e-76adc9210f19_story.html|title=‘Big Men’ movie review: Pandora’s Box filled with black gold in Africa|last=Merry|first=Stephanie|newspaper=The Washington Post|date=March 27, 2014|accessdate=February 7, 2017}} External links
