Full Review | Original Score: 4/5 | Sep 26, 2005

This sometimes fawning documentary is selling a simple image of Chomsky to his faithful, not expanding on or further discussing the man's ideas.

Full Review | Dec 1, 2003

There are better and more entertaining ways to grapple with Noam Chomsky's theories.

| Original Score: 70/100 | Oct 29, 2003

Junkerman's dull film, and its important if inflammatory message, will bore all but Chomsky's fellow travelers to death.

Full Review | Aug 8, 2003

As film it's drab. As Chomsky it's compelling.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4 | Jun 2, 2003

Whether or not you agree with Chomsky, this film will give you a political perspective not easily found in the mainstream media. It's worth seeing for that alone.

| May 31, 2003

If the documentary is a jumbled mess, the man ... is mesmerizing, lucid, thought-provoking and brave.

| Original Score: C+ | Apr 10, 2003

Visually, it's about as exciting as C-Span. Doesn't matter. Chomsky, at 74, is as radical as ever.

May have been more interesting if there were somebody from the Right responding to his views. It doesn't even have to be an equal to Chomsky - anyone will do.

Full Review | Original Score: 6/10 | Mar 5, 2003

Kept me interested for its full 74 minutes with a series of surprises.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Feb 14, 2003

Would have benefited from putting a wider lens on the man and his detractors, as seen in 1992's superior Manufacturing Consent: Noam Chomsky and the Media by Mark Achbar and Peter Wintonick.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jan 31, 2003

Whether one agrees with him totally, to some degree or not at all, it's hard not to appreciate the thoughtfulness of Noam Chomsky's gently spoken, hard-defended positions.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4 | Jan 24, 2003

Because what Noam is thinking is always of interest, this brief and reverential film is as well.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jan 23, 2003

Chomsky's rapier-sharp intelligence, his curmudgeonly wit, his goofy charisma -- not to mention his considerable political acumen -- are all but lost in this sometimes-lugubrious hodgepodge.

| Jan 23, 2003

Chomsky and his arguments are brilliant stuff, but this film is just a boring, trite mess.

| Original Score: 1/5 | Jan 12, 2003

The authority of Chomsky's rhetoric has a sternly cleansing force that can't be dismissed.

| Original Score: B+ | Jan 9, 2003

The kind of film that you hope makes it onto the 온라인카지노추천 screens of every high school class in the country.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Dec 1, 2002

It is not a very distinguished film as documentaries go, but it captures the man in a vital moment -- commenting on America's place in the world following the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001.

| Nov 26, 2002

While that will ultimately give the film a dated feel in the future, right now it seems as topical and relevant as today's headlines.

Would have been far more interesting if its titular talking head had debated an intellectual equal from the right.
