Excellent, a Must See

Don't listen to the negative reviews

A Disappointing Continuation

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

'SEEING ALLRED': Four Stars (Out of Five)A documentary about woman's rights attorney Gloria Allred, and her continuous battle for equality. The film follows her as she relentlessly takes on powerful personalities in pop culture, as sexual assault allegations in the media become more and more frequent. It was directed by Roberta Grossman and Sophie Sartain, and it stars Allred. The feature is also yet another original Netflix release, on it's streaming site. I found it to be a well made and effective documentary.Gloria Allred is a women's rights attorney who's famous for taking on rich men in powerful positions (often celebrities), and defending the women their accused of violating. She was born in Philadelphia, into a Jewish family, and became interested in the civil rights movement as a graduate student at New York University. Her legal career has spanned four decades, and this movie focuses (especially) on her attempts to take down Bill Cosby. The film was pretty educational for me. I had heard of Gloria Allred, but I didn't know that much about her prior to watching this movie. I really respect her passion and conviction for such an important cause, and I think the film does a pretty good job of illustrating how affective she's been for the women's rights movement. It's definitely worth a watch if you're interested in the subject.

Seeing Allred is a documentary about Gloria Allred, an American lawyer famous for appearing at rallies and creating media stunts for her clients. This doc is directed by Roberta Grossman (Homeland: Four Portraits of Native Action) and Sophie Sartain (Mimi and Dona).The doc is well made, with great editing and music to keep somebody entertained continuously. It also has a great structure, with Allred telling her life story with in put from other people, from beginning to end. It helps that Allred is quite a interesting person and has been involved in much every high profile case, from the time she was became a lawyer, till now.The major problem with this doc is that it is 100% one sided. Allred is one of the most controversial people in America. Yet, we get presented with a documentary telling us that she is an amazing person with no faults. Not to say she isn't a person with no faults. But I would like to hear the views of the people who don't like her t make a judgement for myself on weather I like her or not. Instead it is saying that she is a saint and it is stupid if you don't like her. May I just say I watched this documentary without knowing who Gloria Allred is, so I watched this doc completely unbiased. Which is why I wanted 2 points of view.Well made and very interesting, but the one sided nature of the film is overwhelming to say the least.5/10

I had always heard her name over the years, an LA lawyer that was hired by rich and famous women to defend their rights during their day in court. This documentary gives us the peak behind the veil that Gloria has placed over her, digging in to her history and private life. Well made and well paced, we learn about the reasons Gloria is who Gloria is and why she has dedicated her life to fight for those who feel they don't have a voice loud enough to be heard. I was truly moved as this huge white man, obviously a Trump supporter, gets in the face of Gloria -who is 75 yrs old and maybe 100 lbs -and she calmly lets him yell in her face then politely proceeds to leave him virtually speechless with her calm and poignant words.

Absolutely fantastic documentary. Showing the truth, not the media bias, behind this woman's remarkable story. If this does not resonate or appeal to you in some way, I can't help but question your agenda, or even heart and mind. Someone who fights for truth, humanity and justice in the way Gloria Allred does, all while being continually misrepresented and misinterpreted, deserves your utmost attention and this film brings you a golden opportunity to really 'see' Allred for who really she is and exactly what she stands for.The idea that she is a woman who does what she does to only pursue fame and money is complete propaganda and nonsense - anyone who falls for such fallacy is surely small-minded and fearful of what she stands for. She is an activist. And a brilliant one at that.
