- 90The Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckThe Hollywood ReporterFrank ScheckTragically, The Truth vs. Alex Jones doesn’t deliver any closure. What it does provide is a disturbing reminder that the fight against evil will likely be never-ending.
- 90The New York TimesBen KenigsbergThe New York TimesBen KenigsbergThe Truth vs. Alex Jones offers a lesson in just how vicious and pervasive conspiracy theories can become and a chilling portrait of how little they may trouble their purveyors.
- 88RogerEbert.comBrian TallericoRogerEbert.comBrian TallericoEven if you don’t want to discuss the proliferation of bullshit that can be at least partly attributed to people like Jones, the specifics of this case are horrifying and enraging. Most importantly, they’re brought to life in Dan Reed’s The Truth vs. Alex Jones in a way that’s sharply edited, sensitively constructed, and expertly crafted.
- 85The Daily BeastFletcher PetersThe Daily BeastFletcher PetersA scathing portrait of Jones and the vile misinformation he spread about the Sandy Hook tragedy.
- 75Chicago Sun-TimesRichard RoeperChicago Sun-TimesRichard RoeperThe Truth vs. Alex Jones is a scathing and well-deserved takedown of the abhorrent hatemonger and huckster whose name is in the title, but the bleating talk show host isn’t the only villain in this story.
