Critic Reviews
-
Andrew O'Hehir, Salon.com
A film that stands out for its passion, ambition and clarion-call sincerity, even amid the contemporary onslaught of political documentaries.
-
Richard Nilsen, Arizona Republic
The fact is, Jon Stewart on The Daily Show uncovers this same hypocrisy every night, and does it in two minutes with irony and humor, while Why We Fight attempts it with outrage and scolding.
-
Michael Booth, Denver Post
Eugene Jarecki's Why We Fight takes on enough subjects to make five great documentaries, but as a result is so scattered that it doesn't quite make for one good one.
-
Steven Rea, Philadelphia Inquirer
It's impossible to imagine anyone, right-leaning or left, coming away from this hugely important documentary unshaken by its representation of the United States and its military establishment.
-
Terry Lawson, Detroit Free Press
More leftist propaganda masquerading as documentary.
