[A] home-run smackdown of the Australian mogul who dominates the American media scene...

This basic dichotomy of honest, urgent intentions and desultory, cheapskate expression marks OutFoxed from a fairly early moment and never really changes.
| Original Score: C+ | Oct 19, 2004
The most scrupulous, most focused, most thorough, and arguably most important of 2004's wave of activist documentaries.
| Original Score: 4/4 | Oct 6, 2004
Not about anything except the lead-balloon revelation that Fox feeds rage and fuels disinformation with questionable journalistic tactics.
| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Oct 5, 2004
This is a big story, but there's not much coverage of it, except in this movie.
| Original Score: B | Sep 30, 2004
Greenwald has fashioned a fine attack dog, and he's sicced it on a deserving subject.

Fox News eventually comes off as a circle of buffoons yapping catch phrases. The movie hammers its points and, like a Bush campaign stop, there's no room for dissent.

Powerful stuff, and deserves to be seen -- by both sides of the political spectrum.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Sep 16, 2004
The kind of broader analysis that makes "Outfoxed" worthwhile viewing even for those who don't have Air America as one of their preset stations.
| Original Score: 3/4 | Sep 16, 2004
Outfoxed is a must-see for any Fox News aficionado interested in understanding what occurs behind the curtain.
| Original Score: 3/4 | Sep 10, 2004
Taken for what it is, Outfoxed is still worth watching, especially for the politically active.
Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Sep 9, 2004
Pure partisan warfare of the liberal stripe, to be sure, but that doesn't make it any less disturbing when discussing such a major shaper of public opinion as Fox, whose motto, judging from this film, more accurately should be 'You retort, we deride.'
| Original Score: 3/5 | Sep 5, 2004
An eye-opening look inside television news. The big lesson seems to be - don't believe everything you see on television (and probably only half of what you see at the movies).
| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Sep 3, 2004
Makes a crucial argument that has less to do with conservatives and liberals than with the coarsening of political discourse and the sinking standards of journalism and news -- subjects that go far beyond any particular news operation.
| Original Score: B+ | Sep 2, 2004
