Kat Sachs Chicago Reader Clear-sighted and well-organized, Andrew Goldberg’s probe into the arson job that is America’s current political system examines the flames that stoked the fire. May 22, 2025 Full Review Cortlyn Kelly RogerEbert.com Goldberg acknowledges that the film’s power is in its exclusive cast sharing their personal experiences. But his film fails to realize that it, too, is a player in platforming an already undefeated beast. Rated: 2/4 May 21, 2025 Full Review Al Alexander Movies Thru the Spectrum There’s little here that you haven’t heard before, but it's impressive how fluidly the movie encompasses a half century in which covert racism has grown and thrived, much to the detriment of the Democratic Party. Rated: B Jun 3, 2025 Full Review Linda and Al Lerner Movies and Shakers Goldberg’s credentials are beyond reproach. But we wanted an inkling of what or who could stop exacerbating the racial divisions and white victimization of a country on the brink of authoritarianism. Hoping the people who need to see this film, see it. Jun 2, 2025 Full Review Dennis Harvey 48 Hills Likely to be of the greatest educational use to the people least likely to see it, White With Fear may not tell you much that you didn’t already know. Still, it’s a solid primer in how “dog-whistle politics” have invaded our mainstream. May 30, 2025 Full Review Steven Prokopy Third Coast Review White With Fear is alarming without being alarmist, and I’m guessing few on either side will argue with its messages about the state of American politics today. Rated: 3/4 May 21, 2025 Full Review Read all reviews

J M Seriously? This is what OBJECTIVE criticism in film is today? lol give it a 1/2 star for transparency at least! Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 06/04/25 Full Review Audience Member You have to be kidding with this premise Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 06/04/25 Full Review Dmitriy A. The film centers on Mark Watney (Matt Damon), an astronaut left stranded on Mars after a devastating storm. With limited resources, he must find a way to survive and send a message to Earth, relying on his ingenuity and scientific knowledge. The story unfolds with a sense of urgency and hope, showcasing Watney's unwavering determination and the efforts of NASA to bring him home. The film skillfully balances Watney's individual struggle with the broader complexities of space exploration and international collaboration Rated 4 out of 5 stars 06/05/25 Full Review Read all reviews
