Rating: 3/5 --
despite the shocking, up-close look, we're no closer to a real understanding of the terrible urge to end it all.

[T]his is one of the most moving and brutally honest films about suicide ever made....This is an impressive piece of work.
New York Times
Rating: D --
You will never look fondly at the Golden Gate Bridge again after seeing this disturbing documentary by a filmmaker ignorant of the volatile narrative water that he dishonors.

Rating: 3/4 --
The Bridge avoids reducing its subjects to types, and if the portraits painted are often recognizable -- the person who talks so much about suicide that those around him fail to take him seriously -- they are not repetitive.
Detroit Free Press
Rating: 4/4 --
Two dozen souls, linked by suicide as a seductive, and very visible alternative to unrelenting torment and suffering.

The whole thing invokes the bodies falling from that other architectural icon on 9/11 - but it's not clear what is achieved beyond disturbance.

Little more than a snuff film clumsily dressed up as an art house flick.

Product Description:
Shot over an entire year in 2004, THE BRIDGE is a startling documentary about San Francisco's Golden Gate Bridge and the people who go there to end their lives. Director Eric Steel and his crew managed to dissuade some of the tortured souls who peered into the abyss during filming, but also saw plenty of people who did end their lives; they also talk to some of the family members who lost people that year.
