Outrage Reviews

A powerful indictment of those who are willing to throw others like themselves under the bus to save their own skin

| Original Score: 3/4 | Aug 5, 2019

| Original Score: 3/4 | Dec 9, 2011

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Dec 9, 2011

| Original Score: 4.5/5 | Apr 4, 2011

While the film is full of some very cogent arguments, there are major flaws in his case.

Full Review | Original Score: 5/10 | Nov 24, 2009

High-spirited documentary about the ultimate hypocrisy imaginable. Closeted politicians pushing for anti-gay legislation in the name of "family values".

| Nov 13, 2009

This is definitely a side of the news that gets very little play in the mainstream media. For that reason alone, this film is worth a look.

| Original Score: B | Nov 8, 2009

It should be relevant to all viewers of political films, but especially meaningful to the gay community.

| Original Score: B | Oct 24, 2009

'Outrage' makes a convincing argument that legislating while living in the closet is detrimental to everyone.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Jun 26, 2009

The examples trotted out in Outrage are so old that if you're interested in this topic, you read about them on the Internet years ago.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/4 | Jun 19, 2009

Director Kirby Dick's most ambitious and accomplished expose yet.

| Original Score: B+ | Jun 18, 2009

[A] comprehensive rundown of the duplicity of some of our leaders and much of our corporate mass media... howls with rage...

| Jun 12, 2009

This is a portrait of how modern politics is still getting it wrong when it comes to gay rights, made worse by the fact that many of the puppet masters behind anti-gay legislation are homosexual themselves.

| Original Score: 5/5 | Jun 11, 2009

An inflammatory documentary that artfully skewers its subjects. Sic 'em Kirby!

| Jun 6, 2009

The result is persuasive but incomplete. Dick is working here as a journalist, and the story is far from fully unfolded. Still, what he proffers will keep you thinking, talking and engaged.

| Original Score: B | Jun 5, 2009

Outrage succeeds as activism, but it excels as a window into certain political psyches.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Jun 4, 2009

Clearly an activist piece of filmmaking, but cleverly put together and highly enjoyable...It does, however, raise some troubling journalistic questions.

| Original Score: B | Jun 3, 2009

[A] passionate, engaging, but sometimes irresponsible expos.

| May 29, 2009

The film's pretty good about saying why so much in the culture encourages a political life in the closet, either tacitly or directly. But even The Advocate had a problem with calling it a brilliantly orchestrated conspiracy.

Full Review | Original Score: 2.5/4 | May 29, 2009

The average viewer will be satisfied with the product, even if the film offers hardly any new information. The doc buff will witness a film that can't surface above the steady nonfiction output at the art house.
