Mike Hale New York Times 06/29/2015
It's thoroughly admiring... framing [Kramer's] excesses as a necessary response to circumstances and suggesting that on the big questions he was always right. Go to Full Review
Matthew Gilbert Boston Globe 06/29/2015
It's a well-done, if familiar, portrait of a man and his times. Go to Full Review
David Rooney The Hollywood Reporter 02/01/2015
A generous salute to the unfiltered firebrand whose impassioned outspokenness helped break institutional inaction during the AIDS crisis. Go to Full Review
Alex Heeney Seventh Row 08/14/2017
What's remarkable is the way that it is a glimpse into a certain time and place, a certain subculture, the atrocities they faced, the attention they didn't get, and the ways in which [Larry] Kramer helped and hindered the cause. Go to Full Review

12/22/2019 I'm so glad I watched this so I could learn about this incredible man. Made me cry. Wow. See more 07/26/2016 You might not see eye to eye with Kramer but it's impossible not to admire or be inspired by this pain in the ass activist. See more 08/21/2015 Good old angry Larry Kramer. I'll bet it's hard to be his friend. This movie is a good companion piece to How to Survive a Plague, the Vito Russo documentary (which aired on HBO, as did this), and the HBO adaptation of Kramer's The Normal Heart. See more 08/02/2015 What a great documentary! Honest and riveting. See more 07/13/2015 This should be mandatory viewing for everyone. See more 07/04/2015 A must see! How shocking the AIDS epidemic was and still is. An amazing film about an amazing man. One can't help but think gay men and women's progress would be far more advanced today if it had not been for that terrible disease and the stigma attached. See more Read all reviews
