Filmed over four years with unprecedented access, THE TRUTH VS. ALEX JONES chronicles the riveting courtroom drama of two defamation lawsuits brought by Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting victims' families against Alex Jones and his website, InfoWars. While exploring the scope and ripple effects of Jones' brand of conspiracy-minded media, the film follows the families' legal efforts to hold him accountable for spreading lies about them and their children. The cases culminate in a historic award of nearly $1.5 billion in damages, followed by Jones declaring bankruptcy.

The madness of it, and the knowledge that Jones’s rants are giving a certain rabid demographic exactly what they want, the dizzying sense of unreality and the multiplying questions as you watch.

The Spectator

On the whole, the programme let the facts, the parents’ anguish and the hideousness of Jones and his allies speak for themselves -- which duly made for a grim and enraging watch.

Sunday Independent (Ireland)

At a tight two hours, this thought-provoking documentary doesn’t waste a minute and is a reminder of the flabbiness of many serialised documentaries.

Absolutely shocking that people believe one podcast bro over several partners and continue to follow him. This man deserves jail and complete castigation. People must be absolutely stupid to have listened to and believed Jones. Why people can't analyse his behaviour and therefore other similar sources accordingly I will never know.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

It’s a solid documentary about Jones’ campaign of terror against the families of Sandy Hook victims. It’s worth watching if you can stomach it.

The idiots on here trying to review bomb this film are no less disgusting "human beings" than their hero, Alex Jones. This movie brilliantly exposes his repulsive, evil core, yet also shows the danger he poses. The fact that he has his sheep who believe his BS is astounding and frightening. I hope that Alex Jones is forced to pay the over $1B in damages he was ordered to pay the Sandy Hook families, because as of early May 2024, he still hasn't(yet he still spends lavishly on himself). Hope he rots in Hell. God bless the families that he made suffer for years.

Funny I like everything Rotten tomatoes give low score and hate everything they score high. 50 percent of documentary is false and more leftist trying to criminalize Alex Jones. Get a life

Difficult and heartbreaking film. I watched this as a testament to the families whom suffered so much at Sandy Hook and the aftermath. The power and damage of conspiracy theories and lies of Alex Jones as well as the people like him is destroying and devastating. These families are so courageous and brave.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars
