Joshua Katzman
Like so much of Herzog's work, both narrative and documentary, this is an engrossing look at obsessive behavior gone terribly awry.
Joshua Rothkopf
Treadwell, a failed TV actor, is presented as someone desperate to give and receive love. That he went to such extremes is tragic, but also, in Herzog's sympathetic eyes, deeply human.
Ben Walters
Fascinating as both nature documentary and as a portrait of a narcissistic monomaniac, utterly in keeping with Herzogian type.
Roger Moore
An alternately gripping and funny-charming nature film and psychological study.
Peter Howell
[Treadwell] left behind 100 hours of some of the most astonishing nature footage ever captured by camera.
Liam Lacey
Compelling, disturbing documentary.

As head of the Federal Bureau of Investigation for nearly 50 years, he would stop at nothing to protect his country.

His methods were at once ruthless and heroic, with the admiration of the world his most coveted, if ever elusive, prize.

Understanding that knowledge is power and fear poses opportunity, he used both to gain unprecedented influence and to build a reputation that was both formidable and untouchable.
