      Xan Brooks Guardian The spoils of war are a chore in this fascinating fly-on-the-wall study of the Taliban’s first year in power. Rated: 4/5 Sep 1, 2023 Full Review Chris Vognar Rolling Stone Hollywoodgate throws us in the deep end and compels us to swim. For the most part it’s worth the effort. Aug 31, 2023 Full Review Christian Blauvelt indieWire There’s another, even more instructive function here the film provides, though: Much of what we see is what the Taliban wants us to see, but as that’s what’s really important to them, it’s also what we need to see to understand them. Rated: B+ Aug 31, 2023 Full Review Joseph Fahim Middle East Eye More than an incisive investigation of Taliban rule, Hollywoodgate is a contemplative snapshot of the ashes left behind by an America that can no longer claim to be the leader of the free world. Nov 18, 2023 Full Review Christian Gallichio The Playlist “Hollywoodgate” trades these more nuanced characterizations for blunt force storytelling, but its nevertheless incredibly effective. Rated: A- Sep 3, 2023 Full Review Rory O'Connor The Film Stage All in, this is a brave piece of filmmaking that builds to a frightening climax: Nash’at creates an image of nervous ineptitude before pummeling you with the harshest of realities. Rated: B+ Sep 2, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews
