Critics Consensus: Its characters can't do much more than grunt, but that doesn't keep Quest for Fire from offering a deeply resonant -- and surprisingly funny -- look at the beginning of the human race.

Reviews

ReelViews

James Berardinelli

If the viewer is able to buy into some of the more ridiculous aspects of the movie and cope with the absence of intelligible dialogue, Quest for Fire emerges as an engaging adventure film.

[An] innovative work.

A movie so rich in entertainment and genuine emotion which seems to race through its hundred minute running time like an express train.

Larry Vitacco

Quest For Fire is thrilling and awesome in its individual and collective achievements.

The film may take a bit of getting used to, but proves to be well worth the effort. Audiences will find themselves not only informed and illuminated by its unique vision, but also enthralled and -- the biggest surprise of all --quite entertained.
