Highly entertaining, in a casual, home-movie way.

Reviews for Abel Raises Cain
1 - 7 (sorted by date)
Top CriticThere's no denying that Alan Abel is a character, and any glimpse behind the schemes is better than none.
10/26/07
The movie could also do a better job of explaining the inner forces that drive Abel – and especially his wife, one of his regular co-conspirators. Such gaps, though, don't seriously detract from the movie's roguish pull.
08/26/05
More a love letter from daughter Jenny to her father than a worthy portrait of Abel's caustic, media-savvy and mind-bending social comedy.

Top CriticIf you don't giggle at some of Alan's gags and the reaction our increasingly polarized culture has to them, you're a prime candidate to fall for him next time.
08/26/05
An affectionate portrait of a gadfly dedicated to lampooning American society's foibles, the laziness of the media and the tendency in all of us to swallow what we really want to believe but shouldn't.

Top Critic...a fun, easy-going documentary...
