American Radical: The Trials of Norman Finkelstein Ratings & Reviews
Spectrum Culture
David Harris
A fascinating, if somewhat repetitive film, about one of the most confusing conflicts of our time.
Chicago Reader
J. R. Jones
An engaging portrait of an academic whose work is both fueled and undermined by his vitriolic personality.
Los Angeles Times
Gary Goldstein
While this tenure-challenged Middle Eastern studies professor is hardly pleasant cinematic company, it's tough to look away.
NewsBlaze
Kam Williams
Paints an empathetic picture of a passionate Palestinian apologist as a loony loudmouth whose rants deserve respect if only because virtually all of his relatives were exterminated in the Holocaust.
Boxoffice Magazine
Mark Keizer
While this may be straightforward, politically neutral, documentary filmmaking, its makers have chosen an incendiary subject who pisses most people off the moment he opens his mouth.
NYC Movie Guru
Avi Offer
A well-balanced, important and timely documentary that's provocative and eye-opening regardless of whether or not you agree with Finkelstein's controversial arguments.
New York Times
Stephen Holden
A cautiously respectful documentary portrait of a political firebrand who presents himself as a beacon of moral truth in the murk of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
Variety
Ronnie Scheib
David Ridgen and Nicolas Rossier's docu on Norman Finkelstein, American Radical, promises to prove as controversial as the man himself.
Village Voice
Ella Taylor
"American radical" may be a misnomer for an intellectual whose life, thought, and rhetoric have been forcefully shaped by a mother whose concentration-camp experience turned her into a fiery booster for every available underdog.
Slant Magazine
Andrew Schenker
Even for those likely to be sympathetic to his point of view, Norman Finkelstein can be a difficult figure to embrace.
rec.arts.movies.reviews
Louis Proyect
Outstanding documentary on a modern prophet denouncing the crimes of Israel who is punished for telling the truth.
