Top Reviews By Critics

Christopher Gray | Slant Magazine Gibney's films refuse to dwell on the ambiguities or hypocrisies that might make them more worthwhile than a half hour on YouTube and Wikipedia.

Alan Scherstuhl | Village Voice A fleet and surefooted account of Scientology's origins, Hubbard's years at sea escaping U.S. taxes, and the misery and harassment faced by the church's apostates.

Leslie Felperin | Hollywood Reporter This impeccably assembled and argued film represents a brave, timely intervention into debates around the organization that have been simmering for some time.

Matt Pais | RedEye While there's no denying the chilling implications of the film and this organization, it's hard not to wonder about the many threads Going Clear leaves untouched.
Full Review

Robert Levin | amNewYork It isn't about questioning a belief system but rather those who would manipulate and exploit it.
Full Review

Melissa Maerz | Entertainment WeeklyIf Going Clear were a Hollywood thriller, I'd complain that it's too over-the-top. But this is real life, which is mind-blowing, and as a documentary, it's disturbingly good.
Full Review

Brian Tallerico | RogerEbert.com Consider "Going Clear" an audit for the former leaders and most prominent members of the Church of Scientology, now willing to come forward and allege abuse, intimidation, and brainwashing.
Full Review

Daniel Eagan | Film Journal International 
Director Alex Gibney has found persuasive witnesses and clips to tell his story in clear, strong terms.
Full Review

Chris Bumbray | JoBlo's Movie Emporium A thought-provoking and disturbing look at one of the most controversial and written-about organizations of the last fifty years.
Full Review

Kurt Loder | Reason OnlineWill likely pop some eyes among those only casually acquainted with the church's bizarre workings.
Full Review

Manohla Dargis |New York Times     A lively and watchable documentary if not an especially enlightening one.
Full Review

Tim Grierson | Paste MagazineIf the film's value as an exposé is limited, "Going Clear" is nonetheless sterling as an official record of condemnation.
