Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
An engaging portrait of an academic whose work is both fueled and undermined by his vitriolic personality.
– J. R. Jones,
Chicago Reader,

fresh:
While this tenure-challenged Middle Eastern studies professor is hardly pleasant cinematic company, it's tough to look away.
– Gary Goldstein,
Los Angeles Times,
12 Mar 2010
fresh:

– Stephen Holden,
New York Times,
11 Feb 2010
fresh:
David Ridgen and Nicolas Rossier's docu on Norman Finkelstein, American Radical, promises to prove as controversial as the man himself.
– Ronnie Scheib,
