Opiniones de Metacritic

Informative documentary about the recent history of efforts to legalize gay marriage, tying these in with the history of marriage as an institution.

Lively, incisive and comprehensive documentary.

Besides the personal stories, de Sève deftly puts the issue in historical and political perspective through an overview of the evolution of marriage, plus a slew of talking heads representing both sides of the battle.

Absorbing documentary about gay marriage is most persuasive when most specific.

Jim de Seve's cogent pro-gay-marriage argument appeals equally to emotion and reason.

The sad fact is that this comprehensive and compassionate documentary about the hottest of the "hot-button" topics - gay marriage - probably won't change one's mind

A lively, cogent documentary, Tying the Knot fortuitously examines same-sex marriage at precisely the moment the issue is making headlines all over.

Tying The Knot's central point remains insistently stated. It would be hard for anyone to watch it and still think of the demand for same-sex marriage as a mere passing fancy.

We never get to see the dailiness of coupled life or learn what made these relationships tick--and why they are so worthy of legal validation.

The subject is worth exploring - unfortunately, de Seve does so in a cut-and-dried manner that never explains why these two couples were able to stay together for so long.
