Critic Reviews

• Mark Jenkins, Washington Post

  Marcus makes little effort to illuminate Breitbart's character or motivation, so this high-pitched portrait ends up a little flat.

• Frank Scheck, Hollywood Reporter

  Lacking the objectivity or contextual analysis to more fully examine the important issues it raises, it's a minor chapter in an unfinished story.

• Lou Lumenick, New York Post

  This is less a documentary than a wholly uncritical celebration ...

• Joe Leydon, Variety

  Overall, Hating Breitbart is conspicuously parsimonious when it comes to providing biographical info about its subject.

• Sandie Angulo Chen, Common Sense Media

  Docu one-sidedly reveres late right-wing media provocateur.

• Bill Gibron, PopMatters

  You have to give Hating Breitbard credit. No other film on the subject would be as slavishly non-objective as this one.

• Philip Martin, Arkansas Democrat-Gazette

  ... as far as this film is concerned Andrew Breitbart was a great American, a nearly mythical figure like Daniel Boone. (Who, as members of my generation will remember, also "fought for America, to make all Americans free.")

• Chris Foran, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel

  Perhaps because of its subject's unexpected death, "Hating Breitbart" leaves you wondering how far Breitbart could have taken his crusade for new media to topple the old and take back the power of storytelling.
