Though it's not the most technically or narratively proficient piece, the film's compelling subjects can't help but inspire, even if we're not always privy to what truly drives them or how their family lives have been affected.

You walk out of Beyond the Call admiring these humanitarians but not the movie about them -- unless you like films with lots of hugging.

A frustrating and frequently monotonous account, a public-relations presentation that only occasionally reveals the hits (or misses) of their missions.

An extremely inspiring film that is also hilarious, exciting and heartwrenching.

The scenery is marvelous, but Belic is a bit too admiring of his subjects.
