Jarecki's tour of Toback's world may glean more than probe. But as these kinds of trips go, even looking at the scenery yields fascinating sights and stirs worthwhile curiosity. Jun 16, 2006 | Rating: 3/4

As is often the case with Toback's films, even as you're shaking your head at his shameless self-indulgence, you can't help but keep on watching. Jun 16, 2006 | Rating: 2.5/4

The Outsider, Nicholas Jarecki's starstruck documentary about the writer and director James Toback, is a tragically missed opportunity to illuminate one of the more unusual cinematic talents working today. Jun 15, 2006 | Rating: 2/5

Jarecki certainly thinks his subject deserves such an accolade, and he's made a great-looking film to make his case, one that is edited gracefully and briskly -- and leaves the heady aftertaste of birthday cake. Jun 15, 2006

The Outsider is a first film and it comes with all the problems of a novice effort. It needs a firmer hand in the editing room and misses much of the point about what makes Toback so much an outsider in the Hollywood system. Aug 23, 2017 | Full Review…

Toback quickly reveals himself as an insufferable, opinionated blowhard who pontificates shamelessly about the art of the cinema while indulging his own obsessions on film. Jun 16, 2006 | Rating: 1/4 | Full Review…
