Rating: 2/5 -- Alas, Alex Gibney's Going Clear: Scientology and the Prison of Belief is merely a competent and informative documentary, a snappy collation of everything you've already heard and read about L Ron Hubbard's dubious money-spinning, ahem, "religion". Full Review

Rating: 4/5 -- In which the world's most dauntless documentary-maker takes on the world's most litigious religion (we'd call it a cult but we don't want to get sued). Full Review

The picture it manages to assemble packs such a punch that it gives new meaning to "going clear." Jaw-dropping, indeed. Full Review

Gibney boils it down with skill, his cutting, construction, graphics, and score smoothly and seductively encapsulating Scientology's appeal. Full Review

Rating: Recommended -- Amongst a field of analysis which examines Scientology as a cabal of rich wackos gone wild on the taxpayer's dime, Going Clear thrives. Full Review
