Critic Reviews

Neil Genzlinger, New York Times
Lacks focus and adds little to the awareness of the subject that even a casual follower of the news has already acquired.

Avi Offer, NYC Movie Guru
A brave, vital and provocative documentary that finds just the right balance between entertaining the audience and provoking them intellectually as well as emotionally.
