“The Conservation Game should have the same impact as The Cove and Blackfish.“
“It will bring audiences cheering to their feet.”
– Scott Marks
Film Critic | San Diego Reader
Certified Rotten Tomatoes Reviewer
“SHOCKING”
“Will change the animal entertainment industry forever.”
“If Tiger King is the tabloid take on the big cat story, The Conservation Game is Pro Publica.”
“Tiger King is Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead and The Conservation Game is Hamlet. The farce is good for a few laughs, but the tragedy has more staying power.”
– Andy Howell

Certified Rotten Tomatoes Reviewer
“EYE-OPENING”
“The Conservation Game is riveting, thanks to Michael Webber’s superb direction that keeps you on the edge of your seat.”

“Rivals both Blackfish and The Cove for sheer bullseye effectiveness.”
“Wisely, director Michael Webber takes an approach that is the polar opposite of The Tiger King.”
“Well-reasoned and far from sensationalized.”
– George Wolf
Film Critic | The Columbus Underground
“AN ABSOLUTE BOMBSHELL”
“The way Blackfish blew the lid off Seaworld, The Conservation Game will rip the curtain back on celebrity conservationists.”
“ONE OF THE BEST DOCUMENTARIES
OF THE FESTIVAL”
“Though The Conservation Game takes place within the same time frame (as Tiger King), its focus is MORE SERIOUS, its message MORE IMPORTANT.
