"The Comedy sensation of the summer is coming soon to a theater near you and the latest laughers from Ben Stiller, Anna Faris or Brad Pitt can't even begin to hold a candle to it. The movie's star? The Dalai Lama."
"I can't remember the last time a movie made me laugh so hard."
"There are scenes here every bit as comically absurd [as] 'The Life of Brian.' ['Dalai Lama Renaissance'] plays more like a Monty Python parody of new age workshops."

- Stan Robinson - Screen Scene/Arizona Weekly (review)
***
