[edit | edit source]

The film received positive response from critics.

  • Rob Nelson in his review for Variety said that "The valiant and vital work of four globetrotting human rights activists is expertly illuminated in 'E-Team', a dynamic and immersive piece of you-are-there verite."[7]
  • Duane Byrge of The Hollywood Reporter gave the film a positive review and said that "In this spellbinding story, filmmakers Katy Chevigny and Ross Kauffman thrust us into the red-alert lives of four E-Team members. It's a comprehensive portrayal of these people's personal and professional lives. We see what makes them tick. Are they adrenaline junkies? Thrill-seekers? Not at all."[8]
  • Carlos Aguilar from Indiewire in his review said that "Powerful and shocking but with enough humanity from its subjects to add tender moments of hope, the "E-Team" is a fascinating look at how information can be the most effective tool to avoid indifference."[9]
