Seeing what happened to Furie and his chill stoner frog dude... will likely make your blood run cold. It sure makes for a chillingly effective internet-era cautionary tale.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Nov 13, 2020

This engrossing documentary follows the character's gentle creator, Matt Furie, as he tries to reclaim his frog from the hatemongers.

Thorough, well-researched investigation ... but with the humor, playfulness and creativity that matches its material and main character.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Sep 4, 2020

Things are likely to get (even) worse before they get better, but if you want to fight something, first you have to understand it. Feels Good Man does just that, and it's pretty darn entertaining, too.

| Original Score: B+ | Sep 4, 2020

Not content to string together talking head interviews, the movie uses art and animation to find a cinematic equivalent for Pepe's evolution from a quirky cartoon animal into a weapon.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Sep 4, 2020

At its best, the movie is a vertiginous, head-slapping examination of the tangible, unpredictable consequences of making art.

Jones uses Furie's story, and some gorgeous animation, as a wonderfully succinct window into the way social media has changed the country.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Sep 2, 2020

That the democratization of the internet has opened a doorway for fascist ideologies to openly quash democratic ones is an irony that isn't lost on the film.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Aug 30, 2020

The blind optimism with which Furie believes that incels and radicals will finally get bored of Pepe and just sort of hand him back will break your heart.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Aug 27, 2020

Feels Good, Man is a shocking doc so chock-full of disorienting details...that it feels unbearably long at just 92-minutes.

| Aug 18, 2020

Jones demonstrates an insatiable curiosity about his subject, speaking with everyone from a former Trump campaign insider to a collector of Rare Pepes to an expert on the occult.

A beacon of internet literacy.

While "Feels Good Man" is stretched a bit too thin to really pierce what it feels like to sit there and watch the world corrupt your art, Furie's general powerlessness is endemic to this story in ways that have nothing to do with his personality.

| Original Score: B | Jan 28, 2020

Most of the lines it draws through online trainwreck culture and shifts in mainstream culture are clear, harrowing and appropriately cautionary.

| Jan 28, 2020

"Feels Good Man" offers an inside peek at the internet's growing ability to affect and shape modern society, which often makes the film a nightmare about extremism and technology.
