| ClarínCandela Martín... helps to understand the importance of the feminist collective that for decades has been fighting for basic rights for women. [Full review in Spanish] |
| VogueBridget ReadSeeing Allred feels more vital than ever as a microcosm of all of the complexities and contradictions of the current state of feminism in the United States, during a time when forces seem to be conspiring to paint it in large, monochrome brush strokes. |
| TheWrapApril WolfeWhat’s perhaps most fascinating about this documentary is how sure-footed Allred has been in picking her battles over the years. |
| VarietyPeter DebrugeAs the cases against Cosby, Trump, O’Reilly, Weinstein, etc. reveal, the courts don’t appear to be equipped to correct a gender-biased system, whereas Allred has pioneered a new way of fighting injustice. |
| The New York TimesKen JaworowskiA documentary that’s remarkably engaging despite treating its rough-and-tumble hero with kid gloves. |
| Los Angeles TimesKenneth TuranMade with its subject's cooperation and talking to people like comrade in arms Gloria Steinem and Allred's daughter, fellow attorney Lisa Bloom, the film allows us, at least to a certain extent, to get behind the public persona to the private person. |
| The GuardianLeslie FelperinThis woman, for all her flaws, is clearly a warrior first and foremost. |
| The Hollywood ReporterDan FienbergUtterly and passionately hagiographic, the documentary Seeing Allred presents 96 minutes of reasons to stand and cheer for celebrated feminist lawyer Gloria Allred. That means, of course, that for ultra-conservative lovers of Netflix documentaries, it's doubtful that Seeing Allred is going to dramatically change any opinions about her. |
| Bust MagazineDeborah KriegerThe most striking parts of the movie depict Allred's impeccable, downright admirable composure in every combative situation in which she finds herself-and, as Seeing Allred makes clear, there have been many. |
| User ReviewEve EThis movie kept me up last night way beyond my bedtime. I simply could not peel myself away. It's absolutely fantastic. Being a dyed-in-the-wool documentary junkie I deeply appreciated the style of the filmmaking. Between that and the subject matter I found myself captivated, moved, fascinated and awe-struck. I love the way the filmmakers did their best to show the depth and complexity of not just Allred herself, but also the personal, political and social environment that Allred had evolved out of, worked to change, struggled bravely to face. I wish I had a greater capacity to describe what this movie stirred inside me, both emotionally and intellectually. I can think of several scenes that were particularly poignant. For anyone with a mind and heart impassioned about--or even merely interested in--social justice, activism, gender equality, freedom of speech and the courage to try to make a difference, this movie will inspire you on a number of different levels. |
