(1 - 16) of 16 OFCS Rating: 75% Fresh Page   1   3/5 "While never quite managing to be the fully successful onslaught he intends, there is enough here to spark a general debate about the way homosexuality is marginalised thanks to self-deluding and self-serving politicos."   Eye for Film   Amber Wilkinson 2/4 "One can at least partly embrace the concept that outing pols who torpedo gay rights is defensible and still find Dick's film too frequently a would-be sensationalistic bit of tut-tutting for queer Dems and their politically-connected friends."   Slant Magazine   Bill Weber 7/10 "A well-documented cautionary tale that should spark broader discussion of the integrity of those making our laws, and the larger implications of living a closeted life."   AfterElton.com   Brian Juergens 2/5 "comprised primarily of insinuation, hearsay, and conjecture... Dick ends up taking on the worse attributes of the people he is, quite openly, judging"   Filmcritic.com   Chris Cabin B "From the film, it seems clear that Washington is full of closeted gays, some self-hating and some merely desperately frightened for their livelihoods. Either way, the winds of generational change are upon us."   ColeSmithey.com   Cole Smithey "Kirby Dick's documentary argues that it's long past time that the many stories that shape closeted gay politicians' lives and careers be sorted out."   PopMatters   Cynthia Fuchs 4/5 "'Outrage' makes a convincing argument that legislating while living in the closet is detrimental to everyone."   eFilmCritic.com   Dan Lybarger B "It should be relevant to all viewers of political films, but especially meaningful to the gay community."   Ozus' World Movie Reviews   Dennis Schwartz C "I'm guessing "Outrage" ultimately is meant to continue the discussion about equal rights for gay Americans, and in that sense the film does succeed."   FilmJerk.com   Edward Havens B+ "Hypocrites beware: Kirby Dick will have none of your shenanigans."   Cinematical   Eric D. Snider B "Clearly an activist piece of filmmaking, but cleverly put together and highly enjoyable...It does, however, raise some troubling journalistic questions."   One Guy's Opinion   Frank Swietek 3/5 "This is gotcha journalism at its most insistent."   Film-Forward.com   Kent Turner "[A] comprehensive rundown of the duplicity of some of our leaders and much of our corporate mass media... howls with rage..."   Flick Filosopher   MaryAnn Johanson 2.5/5 "The average viewer will be satisfied with the product, even if the film offers hardly any new information. The doc buff will witness a film that can't surface above the steady nonfiction output at the art house."   Film Threat   Matthew Sorrento "By letting others do the heavy lifting, the filmmaker comes off as more than a little reticent, a quality in tune with the overall tone of his latest."   The Screengrab   Nick Schager "However, when it sticks to its strongest angle--attacking these people for their endless capacity for self-denial--"Outrage" does pack a significant punch and for this reason alone, it deserves to be seen."   eFilmCritic.com   Peter Sobczynski  (1 - 16) of 16 OFCS Rating: 75% Fresh Page   1
