- The film has excellent, complex, gripping moments, and is strongest when grappling with the complex issues surrounding trying to help people in the midst of factional violence. It presents the moral question of whether to do some wrong in order to serve the greater good, or to risk being shut out of doing good altogether.

Beyond Borders received negative reviews from critics, as the movie currently holds a 14% rating on Rotten Tomatoes based on 103 reviews. Critical consensus on the film has it that " Beyond Borders is good-intentioned, but the use of human suffering as a backdrop for a romance comes across as sanctimonious and exploitative."
Beyond Borders is a slightly better film than most of the reviews I've read would indicate. Examining the people and politics behind relief aid to war torn and poverty stricken countries, it's an `issue' movie that tries to make a statement that is overshadowed by Hollywood special effects and dialogue that is a bit too trite at times.
