A Sinner in Mecca has been reviewed widely across the word. In San Diego KPBS did a mixed review saying “Laid out like some of the best personal documentaries of the 1990s, Sharma incorporates gorgeous shots, lovely animation and sometimes overly self-indulgent scenes and melodramatic voice- overs.” The Hollywood Reporter called it “Wrenching… gritty… surreal and transcendent; Visceral and Abstract… a true act of courage and hope.” The Guardian wrote, “With poetic simplicity… a delicately personal story and a call to action.” OUT Magazine described it as “Brave… An unprecedented exploration of Islam.” Indiewire wrote, “Powerful, Illuminating … a remarkable examination of contemporary Islam.” NOW Toronto said, “Spectacular… Emotional core stands out”. BBC Persian called it “Shocking and Courageous”. Screen Daily referred to the film as “”Unprecedented… Surreal.” The Toronto Star called it “A deeply personal film about faith and forgiveness.” Scroll.in said, “Deeply personal … High Drama … A protest against Saudi Arabia”. J.B. Spins wrote, “Nonfiction-filmmaking does not get much gutsier than Sharma video-documenting his hajj… Bold and stingingly truthful, A Sinner in Mecca is very highly recommended.” Anne Thompson in Thompson on Hollywood wrote, “The film combines the political, the personal and the spiritual in a remarkable way”.
