Fauci Reviews
An impressive piece of cinematic journalism.
| May 19, 2022
Too one-sided to be taken seriously...
| Nov 15, 2021
This was a rather standard doc, plainly told. There was nothing especially appealing about the whole thing; Hoffman, and Tobias basically fawn all over their subject for 90 minutes.

A real treat.
| Oct 18, 2021
Not quite a hagiography, but it comes close.

While Fauci has certainly put himself in a position of immense scrutiny voluntarily, it's hard not to empathize fully with the burden he carries being the scientific face of the moment we live in right now.
| Oct 15, 2021
Mostly inessential, except for the vintage footage of Fauci's feud, and eventual truce, with AIDS activists in the 1980s.
| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Oct 14, 2021
Shines a light on his accomplishments and the man himself - his knowledge and experience, honesty and integrity.
| Oct 12, 2021
Absorbing and ultimately uplifting.

If the goal was to humanize the 80-year-old talking head, filmmakers John Hoffman and Janet Tobias have succeeded.
| Oct 7, 2021
Fauci effectively humanizes the famous - or infamous - physician-scientist and levels out who he really is by putting him on camera as much as possible.
| Oct 6, 2021
Fauci accomplishes an even greater feat of showcasing the stormy relationship between science, politics, and public discourse-and what can happen when it all goes off the rails.
| Original Score: A | Oct 6, 2021
Fauci is a rock-solid documentary about noted scientist Dr. Anthony Fauci, who has become both a rock star and a lightning rod.
| Original Score: 3/4 | Oct 6, 2021
Fauci makes no pretense about where its sentiments lie, lauding a figure whose critics have seemingly twisted his image beyond recognition in their attempts to demonize him.
| Oct 5, 2021
A conventional, harmless and mediocre documentary that plays it safe without asking tough or deep questions.
| Original Score: 7.25/10 | Sep 30, 2021
Fauci raises itself from being a mere biography by smartly juxtaposing Fauci's role in the national AIDS and COVID responses in parallel rather than chronologically.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Sep 24, 2021
Very very interesting, and Fauci comes out as an honest and fascinating character.
| Sep 21, 2021
A worthwhile account, partly because it looks at Fauci's whole career.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Sep 16, 2021
Fauci is a refreshing figure and a standard-bearer for the truth.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Sep 16, 2021
The subject comes away smelling of roses, and it seems deserved this time.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Sep 16, 2021
