Icarus is eye-opening viewing for professional sports enthusiasts, yet it should also prove thoroughly gripping even for filmgoers who might not necessarily be drawn to the subject.

It's fair, then, to call Icarus a coup for a first-time documentarian, the product of both dumb luck and a strange rapport between Fogel and Dr. Grigory Rodchenkov. August 10, 2017 | Full Review…

Imagine a version of Morgan Sperlock's Super Size Me in which, instead of merely bloating up, Sperlock entered into an uneasy friendship with an evil clown version of Ronald McDonald, and you'll get a sense of this doc's unexpected depth. August 4, 2017 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

Rodchenkov proves a surprisingly lovable personality --- wry, funny, and gregarious. But things get dark and dangerous when the Russian Olympic doping program is exposed and Rodchenkov fears that he might be in a position of knowing too much. August 4, 2017 | Full Review…

A shocking entry in the conspiracy themed subgenre, that ends up being as real as the effect of its subject. [Full review in Spanish]. February 18, 2019 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…

Because the doc kicks into high gear when Rodchenkov enters the picture -- and because Rodchenkov is such a fascinating subject -- one is inclined to forgive Fogel for his false start of a beginning. October 18, 2018 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

The entire film is gripping, giving the audience no-holds-barred access to the biggest sporting controversy of the century, as well as pulling back the newly re-erected iron curtain ever so slightly to see the inner workings of the Kremlin. May 9, 2018 | Full Review…

This is fascinating, scary stuff, not the least of which is the bald-faced lies told all around that are delivered as fact. Icarus is the perfect fable for our time. March 27, 2018 | Full Review…
