All Critics (70) | Top Critics (24) | Fresh (66) | Rotten (4)

This thorough, engrossing film shows how idealistic Aussie hacker Julian Assange took on the might of the US, exposing their military and diplomatic misconduct, then allowed his own murky personal life to tarnish his credibility.

Sometimes it takes a feature-length documentary to stitch together a story we think we already know.

A real-life cyber-thriller with real-life consequences, Alex Gibney's We Steal Secrets: The Story of WikiLeaks is a riveting and revelatory documentary ...

Gibney builds a remarkable level of suspense, given how exhaustively WikiLeaks has been covered in the media.

Engaging, kinetic, revelatory and unexpected.

At once an awkward mingling of two complex life stories and a gripping, necessary look at how information is gathered, shared and, yes, stolen.

Outstanding, cool-headed documentary.

Compelling, enlightening and utterly accessible, Gibney's ultra-slick pop-doc cleaves through the thorniest thicket of contemporary political issues to find, at its heart, two wholly human stories.

A breathless, dazzling and mind-blowingly complex 130-minute story.

I'd have liked to know more about his private life and background but Gibney has too much other ground to cover.

We Steal Secrets is much concerned with conspiracy theories and may well wind up fuelling new ones.

A thorough and decently intentioned work, though it accepts a little too glibly the more-in-sorrow-than-in-anger line against Assange: that he is a fascinating radical who simply became a paranoid authoritarian.

With a subject matter that oddly feels both timely and out-of-date, this documentary is packed with telling details about WikiLeaks, Although it gets muddy as it delves into the lives of founder Julian Assange and whistleblower Bradley Manning.

This is saying something important. Check your Facebook settings.

This is an expertly organised documentary; Gibney's always are.

In truth, there's little in Alex Gibney's film that won't be familiar to attentive news watchers, but this skilled documentarian has mastered the art of condensing a vast and complex amount of information into a gripping and entertaining package.

The range of Gibney's subjects, the rigour of his research and the complexity of his questions make We Steal Secrets breathlessly compelling, but it's the moments of psychological probing that haunt the most.

Noxious government activities may warrant exposure, but Gibney points out that the whistleblowers can be pretty flawed too.

Alex Gibney adds to his forensic examinations of Enron and Abu Ghraib with another fine documentary.

Alex Gibney has shone his spotlight into a few dark corners and shown us something worthy of discussion.

A thoughtful documentary about Julian Assange, Bradley Manning, secrets, lies, power and the poorly understood nature of the internet.

If you're looking for a really comprehensive, clear, evenhanded and thoroughly entertaining examination of, well, the story of WikiLeaks, master documentarian Alex Gibney has gone to the trouble of providing you with one.

A fascinating insight into Wikileaks and the two men behind the world's largest ever whistleblowing scandal.

This look at WikiLeaks -- and founder Julian Assange -- makes its case long before the film stops talking.

It portrays a seething nest of highly volatile personalities whose motivations are fraught with ambiguities and contradictions, and a chain of actions and reactions the full impact of which has yet to be measured.
