American Pain Ratings & Reviews
Decider
Johnny Loftus
American Pain is a wild ride as Chris George and his crew's pill mill pushing rakes in cash even as it spits out victims. And while it's satisfying to see them brought to justice, a bitterness remains...
New York Times
Natalia Winkelman
The utility of an energetic character study of depraved opioid kingpins is questionable. But the documentary unspools with enough style and spark to engage.
Wall Street Journal
John Anderson
Being appalled by people who get their comeuppance is always entertaining, and American Pain fills that bill, though the misbehavior Mr. Foster chronicles is so shameless that viewers might start to lose their bearings.
Variety
Dennis Harvey
Landing between the terrain of The Wolf of Wall Street and Pain & Gain, this grotesque account of filthy lucre built on ruined lives sprinkles believe-it-or-not details amidst a headlong editorial pace.
The Playlist
Chris Barsanti
A bruising and vital piece of film journalism
POV Magazine
Jason Gorber
American Pain is that rare documentary that's both highly entertaining and excruciating to contemplate given the way it strips the façade of fairness and justice within a broken system.
The Hollywood Reporter
John DeFore
Infuriating.
TheWrap
Ronda Racha Penrice
Ultimately, "American Pain" perpetuates the media's dangerous pattern of humanizing white criminals under the guise of moral disdain.
Moveable Fest
Stephen Saito
Allows one to be swept up in the wild chain of events as much as everyone involved was.
