Lucy Mangan Guardian As a primer for newcomers, or a recap for those who want one, Catch and Kill: The TV Series of the Podcast of the Book of the Article works fine. Rated: 3/5 Nov 4, 2021 Full Review Alexandra Heller-Nicholas ABC Radio (Australia) Referencing figures seemingly beyond the Weinstein story like Jamal Khashoggi, while Catch and Kill is about #MeToo but speaks to issues far beyond it in an engrossing, intimate and fascinating way. Rated: 4/5 Jul 30, 2021 Full Review Kristen Lopez IndieWire The HBO documentary series works strictly for those who didn't read Farrow's book and want a crash course. Rated: D+ Jul 21, 2021 Full Review Carla Renata The Curvy Film Critic Ronan Farrow's journalistic skills are fire as he reveals the many layers of investigation it took to bring down one of Hollywood's most powerful movie moguls while allowing survivors to keep their dignity in tact Jul 26, 2021 Full Review Joel Keller Decider If you want to see and hear how Farrow managed to pin proof of sexual assault on Weinstein when other excellent reporters couldn't, Catch And Kill: The Podcast Tapes lays that process out well. Jul 21, 2021 Full Review Hannah Brown Jerusalem Post There is no new information on the scandal itself, but those interested in how media operate will want to see this.

Audience Member This is how you make a documentary. You get to see the investigators battle their own in order to get the story out and bring a giant down. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Two episodes in and I'm hooked. This book lends itself well to the screen, allowing the women that Weinstein assaulted tell their stories on their own terms. Long overdue, timely, important, and such an interesting follow-up to HBO's Woody Allen/Mia Farrow documentary. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
