An exploration of the means and methods of propagandist persuasion.

Carly Lewis

Globe and Mail

The magnitude of misinformation and the atrocities enabled by horrendous people with manipulative marketing prowess are far-reaching and leviathan in their potential. We should watch a documentary like this and feel overwhelmed.

Rated: 2.5/4

The Hollywood Reporter

By the time the film ends, your head is reeling with so much information that you feel you've been subjected to propaganda yourself.

A timely look at what activist Astra Taylor calls "political brainwashing," the film details the reasons why we are so often sucker-punched by the use and abuse of the media.

Rated: 4/5

Ken Eisner

Georgia Straight

A film so timely, it could almost include the feed on your current smartphone, Propaganda: The Art of Selling Lies is a neat overview of how information is twisted, repeated, repackaged, and otherwise auctioned on the open market of un-made minds.

It's exhausting and depressing and it's not fake, it's all too real.

The Gate

Adults who already understand how propaganda works probably won't be wowed by any of this, but as potential introduction to media studies, Weinstein's film has a great deal of educational value.

Rated: 6/10
