"...if this were a 1930s musical, the producer would have been leaping up and down after the first five minutes going, 'My God, the kid's a natural!' ... While Reeve can do the fun stuff, he's much more interested in poking about beneath the surface of things. Inevitably, everything belts along in a never-stuck-in-one-place-for-long fashion, but Equator never feels glib; beneath the travelogue exterior, there's a real spirit of inquiry beating away." John Preston, Sunday Telegraph

"There's much natural beauty, dictators, conflict, poverty and a few adventures along the way. Reeve, slightly kooky and not much of an action man, makes an amiable guide." Jonathan Wright, Guardian

"... a rather quirky documentary ... Reeve's boyish charm and cheeky humour are entertaining." Nicholas Spencer, Financial Times
