Movie Reviews

AV Club - 9/10 by Noel MurrayThe real story here, as in "Deliver Us From Evil" and "An Open Secret," is that so many people knew what was going on and still did nothing.
Variety - 9/10 by Justin ChangBerg’s interviews with past members of the polygamy-practicing Mormon denomination make for damning testimony, but the lasting power of “Prey” is its grim insight into the mentality of the deceived, and its despairing recognition that spiritual and psychological bondage doesn’t end simply by putting a monster behind bars.
The Playlist - 9/10 by Kate ErblandProphet’s Prey is a skin-crawling chronicle of one of America’s biggest criminals and the community that allowed him to flourish.
NYC Movie Guru - 9/10 by Avi OfferA powerful, enraging and heartbreaking exposé.
Chicago Tribune - 9/10 by Michael PhillipsThe movie finds what solace it can in giving voice to those who escaped this church's grasp.
Village Voice - 8/10 by Ernest HardyGrim but riveting viewing, a layered commentary on this country's moral and spiritual underbelly.
The Hollywood Reporter - 8/10 by Leslie FelperinBerg’s account of the child abuse cases that led to the imprisonment of Warren Jeffs, the leader of the Fundamentalist Church of Latter-Day Saints (FLDS), doesn’t reveal much that hasn’t already been in the news or written up in books, but it does provide a comprehensive, disturbing and utterly fascinating historical overview.
RogerEbert.com - 8/10 by Brian TallericoHopefully, Prophet’s Prey will give those women the power to escape and make their voices heard.
Slant Magazine - 8/10 by Chuck BowenOne watches the film with an escalating sense of disbelief and horror, as Warren Jeffs is steadily revealed to be an even greater monster than we initially take him for.
New York Times - 8/10 by Manohla DargisMs. Berg has created an unnerving, sometimes infuriating documentary. She makes smart choices throughout as she weaves together this chronicle of faith and abuse.
