John Anderson Wall Street Journal 10/30/2020
The story told is the stuff of outrageous sci-fi, at least to those of us without doctorates in biology or medicine. Fortunately for the layman... the film takes great pains to explain exactly what it's talking about and make it accessible. Go to Full Review Inkoo Kang The Hollywood Reporter 10/30/2020
The film never really gets inside Traywick's head, though it probably doesn't need to - his actions speak for themselves. Go to Full Review Christopher Llewellyn Reed Hammer to Nail 10/31/2020
Citizen Bio offers two parallel narratives: one a tale of hubris and its comeuppance, the other of the future of do-it-yourself science. It's the latter that truly captivates. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Stephen I 09/07/2024 Found Citizen Bio on Fandango At Home/VUDU. Really enjoyed this ShowTime documentary on biohacking. Aaron Traywick is the reckless biohacker that pushed the movement into the national spotlight by his willingness to make wild medical claims and inject himself with miracle cures. The film editing is well done. Really enjoyed it and hope others will give it a watch as it feels like the crazy days of Silicon Valley all over again. See more Read all reviews
