Entertainment Reviews:
Seems to be caught between preaching to the converted and reinventing a complex real-life individual without fully exploring that person's humor, complexity and contradictions.

Abbie Hoffman biopic is unsatisfying.

Common Sense Media
While you may be inspired to get off your lazy ass and change the world, you'll still be left wondering who the real Abbie Hoffman was.

...Vincent D'Onofrio plays [Abbie Hoffman] with an appealing, self-conscious gusto....Ms. Garofalo gives a tender, finely shaded portrait of a woman of remarkable flexibility, strength, humor and loyalty...
New York Times
There might have been a better, more involving method of telling Hoffman's story, but it is expressed with a firm sense of commitment to accuracy and authenticity.

Product Description:
Abbie Hoffman (Vincent D'Onofrio), the dynamic, energetic political activist who, in the 60s, protested the war in Vietnam and the capitalist philosophies of companies that produced Napalm--most memorably by burning piles of $1 bills outside the New York Stock Exchange--comes into focus in STEAL THIS MOVIE. Outspoken on issues ranging from environmentalism to CIA recruitment on college campuses, Hoffman inspired his generation and taught them how to organize politically. A detailed look at one of American counterculture's most fascinating personalities, STEAL THIS MOVIE is one film not to miss.
