Leave your thoughts about Horns and Halos.
| Detroit Free PressTerry LawsonHorns and Halos benefits from serendipity but also reminds us of our own responsibility to question what is told as the truth. |
| New York Magazine/VultureJohn LeonardA frantic and wholly absorbing documentary that ends with sudden death. |
| NewsdayJohn AndersonSaddled with an unwieldy cast of characters and angles, but the payoff is powerful and revelatory. |
| Entertainment TodayBrent SimonFilling but ultimately not terribly substantive. A summary abridgment of the scandal and fallout over Fortunate Son that doesn't draw any lasting conclusions of its own or, indeed, ask its watchers to do too much heavy mental lifting either. |
| Dallas Morning NewsChris VognarA spry documentary that makes the most of two compelling characters. |
| TheMovieChicks.comCherryl Dawson and Leigh Ann PaloneIf this was just a documentary about the book, it wouldn't be nearly as effective - it works because of the human-interest aspects of the story. |
| Film Journal InternationalEric MonderIt suggests the wide-ranging effects of media manipulation, from the kind of reporting that is done by the supposedly liberal media ... to the intimate and ultimately tragic heartache of maverick individuals like Hatfield and Hicks. |
| Austin ChronicleMarjorie BaumgartenA documentary whose content might possibly have further reach than the book. |
| Village VoiceMichael AtkinsonWhat emerges is not only an Underdog v. Simon Bar Sinister saga but a fascinating character study. |
| OffoffoffJoshua TanzerThere aren't many conclusive answers in the film, but there is an interesting story of pointed personalities, courage, tragedy and the little guys vs. the big guys. |
