Protraph Lack of good storyline.

Myron Clemons A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.

Lela The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

Brooklynn There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.

winddiva Such a beautiful story and film. Filmmaker Jake Oelman creates a story you get lost in visually and emotionally. The importance of this film is epic as many people will never see the beauty of insects as Jake and Robert Oelman show us through Roberts awesome photography. I was lucky enough to see this film in its beginnings and look forward to watching it again and again when it comes out next year.

robertheskin A wonderful journey of a man who wanted to change his life to then find himself on a beautiful journey of discovery for both Robert as well as all of mankind as he discovers the wonderful world of insects as well as himself. As we follow Robert and his son and filmmaker Jake Oleman... we discover as much about themselves as they do the little known world of insects. Amazing cinematography/photography and story telling...

rainyday_sitter 'Learning to See' gives so many more reasons to love and preserve rain forests worldwide, as if we needed another. Visually stunning, emotionally compelling, and continuously thought-provoking, the film will surprise even avid followers of rain forest fauna. Hopefully, this will be one piece from which a critical mass of earthlings will be learning to see.

williamkrinsky This documentary centers on one man's exploration of a new way of life and the development of new talents related to natural history and photography. Starting a new life in Colombia and learning to see the magnificent insects that populate the Neotropical rain forests, Oelman developed exceptional abilities as an insect photographer enabling him to share these wonders of nature with others, with the hope of providing an impetus for saving the natural habitats that are home to these creatures before they are destroyed. The film highlights Mr. Oelman's personal journey in finding a new way of life and a new career. The film is filled with exquisite and intriguing photographs of tropical insects.
