A man starts a website that upends the traditional press, and he becomes the target of a media feeding frenzy.

Alan Scherstuhl

Village Voice

[A] shapeless, uncritical documentary.

Marcus makes little effort to illuminate Breitbart's character or motivation, so this high-pitched portrait ends up a little flat.

Rated: 1.5/4

Frank Scheck

The Hollywood Reporter

Lacking the objectivity or contextual analysis to more fully examine the important issues it raises, it's a minor chapter in an unfinished story.

Common Sense Media

Docu one-sidedly reveres late right-wing media provocateur.

You have to give Hating Breitbard credit. No other film on the subject would be as slavishly non-objective as this one.

Rated: 1.5/5

Arkansas Democrat-Gazette

... as far as this film is concerned Andrew Breitbart was a great American, a nearly mythical figure like Daniel Boone. (Who, as members of my generation will remember, also "fought for America, to make all Americans free.")

Andrew Breitbart was exposing the rampant bias and fake news used in the manipulation of people. Must see.

A documentary that's definitely worth watching. About 22 minutes in, voices critical to Andrew do begin to surface. Before the end, I walked away with a candid view of the man and what drove his passion.

If you really want to understand how and why the term 'fake news' occurred, see this documentary, it may change your life.

It is a very fascinating character study of Andrew Breitbart. Although it is extremely compelling it also lacks any focus on Breitbarts ideology any policies he stands for.
