Mark Holcomb Time Out Rated: 4/5 Nov 17, 2011 Full Review Nathan Lee New York Times All in This Tea is a delicious documentary about a beverage. Rated: 4/5 Jun 27, 2008 Full Review David Wiegand San Francisco Chronicle The film is both delightful and informative at every turn. Rated: 4/4 Jun 25, 2008 Full Review Dennis Harvey 48 Hills Lovely [and] globe-trotting... Jun 7, 2024 Full Review Farah Cheded A Good Movie To Watch Unless you’re a tea fanatic, you’ve probably never thought about the drink in [this] much detail, but that’s the beauty of this film: it lets us into other people’s passions and opens our eyes to the wonders we might never have seen otherwise. Sep 2, 2023 Full Review Kelly Vance East Bay Express Les Blank's profile of tea aficionado David Lee Hoffman will send every single viewer out the door toward the nearest teahouse with its infectious enthusiasm for the good life.

Audience Member Tea is good mmkay. I want this type of tea now. It looks tasty. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/15/23 Full Review Audience Member One Of My Favorite Documentary's! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Audience Member I'd like to try some of that $20k/pound prize winning tea. David Lee's easy going personality make this easy to watch. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Audience Member I want this man's job. I'm re-energized on tea. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Audience Member This documentary lacks any kind of narrative for much of its short runtime; with some subjects that would be okay but I'm not sure I understand that decision with tea. It feels almost as if Blank and co went and filmed lots of stuff and then later thought "how do we turn this into a movie?" But it's still intersting and I learned something. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/19/23 Full Review Audience Member An amazing tale of Tea and a man who knows it best! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review Read all reviews
