Brad Newsome Sydney Morning Herald 12/12/2018
Rothstein makes great use of his many interviewees. The ground-level FBI agents who conducted history-making interviews and investigations give riveting first-hand accounts. Go to Full Review Sophie Gilbert The Atlantic 11/27/2018
There's very little in Enemies that's new, and yet it's still striking to see how repackaging the past can shed light on the present. Go to Full Review Daniel Fienberg The Hollywood Reporter 11/19/2018
The chances that the next month will require a new ending are low. The chances it will require an aggressive adjustment of focus are high. I can tell you that so far it's interesting, but not if it's worth it. Go to Full Review Joel Keller Decider 11/23/2018
Worthwhile because it always helps to examine current events through the lens of the past, to give perspective and let the viewer know what led to our current state of affairs. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
