An idiosyncratic portrait of a man whose life went to hell after he did the planet a major favor.

Film Journal International
"I was just at the right place at the right time," Mr. Petrov says, a simple truth that becomes shocking when considering the alternative. For that alone, this account of a Cold War near miss deserves a wide audience.

New York Times
Even if it does feature Lt. Col. Stanislav Petrov visiting America to be feted at the United Nations and rubbing elbows with glitterati, the film is a disingenuous, thoroughly dramatized reenactment at best and a reality show at worst.

Los Angeles Times
Rating: 3/5 --
The present and the past are smoothly sutured together by deft editing and an insistently mournful string score, although it's sometimes a bit repetitive.

The Man Who Saved The World is a humbling, inspirational and entertaining documentary that everyone should and must watch and it is more relevant today than ever before.

Rating: B --
The mix of the intensely personal with the global keeps "The Man Who Saved the World" from feeling too politically preachy.

Rating: 3/5 --
The Man Who Saved the World's oddly conflicting styles creates a strange uncertainty -- making it hard to gauge precisely whether the narration is reliable, despite the fact that these are true events.
