  • 'Hating Breitbart' is an up-close expose into the last two years of the work of controversial New Media pioneer, Andrew Breitbart, before his untimely death earlier this year. 'Hating Breitbart' is the story of the man who achieved national attention by upending the traditional press and repeatedly found himself the target of a media feeding frenzy…and a target of those who hated him for his success. Over the span of 30 months in more than 15 cities across the United States, 'Hating Breitbart' writer-director, Andrew Marcus enjoyed exclusive, behind-the-scenes access to Breitbart during his various high-profile and often contentious battles with the media – from the release of the explosive ACORN videos through the highly-publicized Anthony Weiner scandal.

Lacking the objectivity or contextual analysis to more fully examine the important issues it raises, it’s a minor chapter in an unfinished story. Read full review

Not so much a probing examination as a fulsome celebration. Read full review

The depiction of an always energetic and often furious Breitbart may please the man’s followers. But Marcus makes little effort to illuminate Breitbart’s character or motivation, so this high-pitched portrait ends up a little flat. Read full review
