Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
The filmmaker gives roughly equal time to left, right, and moderate views, but his glib narration, accentuated by a jaunty score, undercuts this otherwise worthy inquiry.
– Andrea Gronvall,
Chicago Reader,
2 Feb 2010
fresh:
The film wades airily into a cultural no-flyover zone, sits down, and says: OK, let's talk.
– Ty Burr,
Boston Globe,

fresh:
Even though Defamation, which is sprinkled with unexpected moments of wry humor, will be inescapably controversial, Yoav Shamir strives admirably to be evenhanded.
– Kevin Thomas,

rotten:
Presumably Mr. Shamir's film plays differently in Israel. In the United States, it feels like just another day on the Op-Ed page.
– Neil Genzlinger,
New York Times,

fresh:
Yoav Shamir's documentary Defamation takes on such an explosive topic that the director only gradually reveals the film's real subject.
