There are a few tears along the way and some laughter, but the four at the heart of the case display a remarkable stoicism and modesty, emerging as the most modest of heroes. October 10, 2014 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

The Case Against 8 documents, quietly and without histrionics, a long-drawn-out process of advocacy. It presents not only the legal conduct of the case, but also the daily lives of those most intimately affected by it. October 10, 2014 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

The Case Against 8, or at least its content, is far too important to be depicted as an overly long reality television sob-story. June 11, 2019 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

The film is a powerful evocation of the permanent revolution of the battle for equality and human rights, but ultimately The Case Against 8 is stymied by the reversal of the legal decision not to allow the legal case to be filmed. April 3, 2019 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

The narrative is dense, but understandably so, and not without its light moments. A richly informative investigation, it pulls viewers along on a political and legal thrill ride that will have you cheering the central couples on scene after scene. October 25, 2016 | Full Review…

While the film doesn't get very deep into these various court cases, it does a good job of humanizing the lawyers and the four defendants in the case. It is about real people, families and consequences. December 9, 2014 | Rating: B | Full Review…
