While one can't help but wonder if this is sound science or needless hysteria, Under Our Skin makes a very convincing case.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Aug 5, 2019

...a well-made yet overlong documentary exploring the hidden epidemic of Lyme disease...

| Original Score: 2/4 | Sep 25, 2013

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Nov 17, 2011

An infectiously persuasive account of chronic Lyme, a disease that has politicized the medical community.

| Aug 15, 2011

What concerns Wilson is why there is so little public discussion of the most common vector-borne disease in the country, and why the disease has become so politicized and controversial.

| Original Score: 6.6/10 | Jun 13, 2010

Well-researched investigative medical documentary over the hidden story of Lyme disease.

| Original Score: B | Dec 13, 2009

The information it presents is eye-opening for medical consumers and health professionals of any stripe. And the film incidentally makes a great case for health care reform.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Oct 2, 2009

We may not get to argue both sides of the debate, but Under Our Skin stirs the deepest emotions and reveals the most unsettling truth: We're all vulnerable to a tick bite, sure, but it's the health care system that really gets us in the end.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Sep 18, 2009

Heartbreaking stories of patients suffering life-shattering illness make "Under Our Skin'' compelling. It would have been an even better movie if the filmmakers had been more diligent in following the money.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Aug 6, 2009

This far-ranging documentary is a real eye opener, presenting its wealth of information and analysis in a clear, well-flowing manner.

| Original Score: B+ | Aug 6, 2009

The film is certainly interesting, but considering its excessive running time, very little is given over to the opposing view...One doctor's court trial never makes it clear if any of patients had less than desirable results.

| Original Score: B- | Jul 27, 2009

This compelling account of the explosive growth of Lyme disease grows to encompass all the peculiar politics, corruption and inertia of American medicine.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4 | Jul 10, 2009

Frightening, powerful stuff.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 1, 2009

Under Our Skin has a major ax to grind, but if even half of what it alleges is true, it's more deeply terrifying than any slasher film you'll ever see.

| Jun 26, 2009

The medical establishment bows under a new disease and patients suffer while insurance companies look the other way.

| Original Score: 8/10 | Jun 22, 2009

Too overstuffed with conspiracy babbling and endless artsy nature photography to have a genuine impact.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/5 | Jun 22, 2009

A vital, insightful, brave and moving documentary that will wake you up and shake you up to the harsh realities of Lyme disease.

| Original Score: 9.0/10 | Jun 21, 2009

Only in its investigation into these downright evil motives does it take on the necessary role of activist, and [...] I wish it had gone further and deeper.

| Original Score: C+ | Jun 19, 2009

Scary enough to make the faint of heart decide never to venture into the woods or to lie on the grass again without protective covering.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Jun 19, 2009

Under Our Skin is a frightening documentary about Lyme disease, so called because it was first noticed in Lyme, Conn.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Jun 19, 2009
