Jasper Craven

The New Republic

The People vs. Agent Orange, which masterfully captures this ongoing damage, should renew a debate about the use of these chemicals. But the film's own thesis suggests such action is unlikely.

Robert Abele

Los Angeles Times

Nevertheless, "The People vs. Agent Orange" has a gripping urgency, especially as a reminder that the history of chemicals' effects on our bodies is still being written and fought over, and that what a secretive industry is allowed to cover up, it will.

The People vs. Agent Orange tackles this horrific chemical, its damage, and the people who lied about it and continue to do so.

A film that leaves you with the inescapable conclusion that the corporations behind Agent Orange and their allies in government and academia that aided and abetted them belong in prison for murder.

Easy Reader (California)

This is a fast-paced 90 minute film. It is, however, just a starting point in the discussion of the use of toxic chemicals, government complicity, and the inability or unwillingness of courts to put together the puzzle pieces of probable cause.
