Untouchable Reviews
A complex, unsettling, but ultimately cathartic experience, the film is necessary viewing as our society finally takes stock of its deplorable treatment of women.
| Mar 12, 2021
It's the heartfelt, detailed and damning testimony from former colleagues, aspiring film industry workers and investigating journalists that really stays with you.
| Original Score: 4.5/5 | Jan 12, 2021
Weinstein is just the tip of the iceberg and Untouchable reminds us that there are plenty of Harvey Weinsteins out there in various industries using their power and privilege to intimidate and silence victims of sexual assault.

A sharp look at a monster who had access to the most beautiful women in the world and took advantage of his position time and again to control them.
| Jul 31, 2020
Untouchable manages the feat of documenting a story about Weinstein without telling only his story.
| Jul 23, 2020
Valuable as it is to hear from the victims, I welcome more understanding of the social and psychological factors in our culture that have allowed men to behave badly, some very badly, for far too long.

The rise and fall of movie mogul Harvey Weinstein has been given a lot of coverage, but this thoughtful, probing and revealing feature-length documentary directed by Ursula Macfarlane adds a constructive perspective to the allegations about him.
| Jan 2, 2020
A documentary that, in its best moments, simply lingers on the survivors and sexual abuse and misconduct, leaving in the deafening silent moments that come all too frequently...
| Original Score: B- | Dec 5, 2019
Weinstein's alleged sex crimes explored; language, violence.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Oct 22, 2019
...told mostly by (Weinstein's) alleged victims, and their stories are hair-raising...an emotional movie to sit through, but well worth the sit.
| Original Score: 9/10 | Sep 17, 2019
The merit of this documentary comes from its clarity. [Full Review in Spanish]
| Original Score: 3/5 | Sep 11, 2019
A chronicle on the genesis of the Me Too movement would have been more stimulating than the millionth portrait of a monster. [Full Review in Spanish]
| Sep 11, 2019
The documentary poses the doubt that Harvey only fell because of weakness and not true justice and on that note alone, the film and audiences need an epilogue. [Full Review in Spanish]
| Original Score: 3/5 | Sep 11, 2019
In her admirable film, director Ursula Macfarlane persuaded some of these women to tell their stories about [Harvey] Weinstein -- the majority of their recollections offered haltingly and with considerable signs of distress.

A conventional, but perturbing documentary. [Full Review in Spanish]
| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Sep 7, 2019
Almost every woman watching will understand. Some men will, too. If these films add to their number, maybe we can begin to change the world.
| Original Score: 5/5 | Sep 4, 2019
Untouchable demands that we don't dare look away.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Sep 3, 2019
"Untouchable" features some less-than-effective filmmaking decisions, from an over-the-top ominous score to an overabundance of driving-through-the-city segues to some murky shots of hotel corridors.
| Original Score: 3/4 | Sep 3, 2019
Where Untouchable excels... is in capturing the complexities surrounding sexual assault.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Sep 3, 2019
Listening to these women specifically say what Harvey [Weinstein] did to them made me deeply uncomfortable.
