Critic Reviews
-
Kirk Honeycutt, Hollywood Reporter
This movie, clearly assembled in haste, throws surprisingly poor archival footage into the mix with a Klein lecture, scant original interviews and a narration from on high that will brook no dissent.
-
Simon Abrams, Slant Magazine
The Shock Doctrine does a poor job of preaching to the choir and winds up looking paranoid and more than a little ridiculous.
-
Dennis Schwartz, Ozus' World Movie Reviews
In a lucid way clears up how America is now in the midst of a severe financial crisis through questionable free market policies.
-
Christopher Campbell, Cinematical
The worst that comes out of the documentary's final moments is the sense that Winterbottom and Whitecross ultimately don't know what their film is supposed to be about.

S. James Wegg, JWR
Pure capitalism unmasked
