Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Note to the Academy: The Oscar for this year's Best Documentary belongs to 13th, Ava DuVernay's incendiary, indelible and indispensable document about the myth of racial equality in America.

rotten:
The film is a morass of distortions, half-truths, calculated omissions, absurd hyperbole and outright falsehoods.

Everything in "13th" illuminates what is convincingly presented as a sad and tragic story that we are still living today.

DuVernay keeps it all chugging and churning along, propelled by the force of her montage and the sheer volume of damning, gripping material.

13th ... is dense with information, and it moves fast. But it's also a story told in images, and the ones DuVernay has chosen ring not just with sadness and horror but also cautious optimism.
