Critic Consensus: While not a particularly deep look at the man and his career, this documentary still serves as a nicely done introduction to Kushner.

This is an exceedingly friendly portrait, a disarming one, too. The filmmaker invites us to reconsider the author as someone warmer and less intimidating than his body of work. On that count, Wrestling With Angels succeeds.
The final portrait is unquestionably entertaining, very occasionally teasing and largely adoring. Because Kushner is a devoted political commentator, his thoughts on everything from America's role in the world to the nature of Zionism are on full display.
Wrestling with Angels is personal and intimate, insightful about Kushner as well as instructive about his collection of works.
Wrestling With Angels is a canny piece of filmmaking, sure to absorb both audiences familiar with Kushner's plays and those who know little or nothing about him.
A sentimental valentine to a man who, underneath it all, simply wants to move people with his message.
This uncritical cinematic embrace doesn't do justice to a playwright who never met a Brechtian dialectic he didn't want to ponder more deeply.
