Tabloid Reviews
Detroit News
Tom Long
It is quite simply one of the craziest stories ever told, made all the crazier by the fact that it's true. Or at least some version of it is true.
Arizona Republic
Bill Goodykoontz
Errol Morris is a genius, a gifted documentarian who has made better movies than "Tabloid," but none so entertaining.
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Joe Williams
"Tabloid" is tantalizing, but like yesterday's headlines, it's a fleeting flirtation.
Seattle Times
John Hartl
The movie is guilty of condescending toward its subjects, though most of them appear to be having a fabulous time telling tales.
Dallas Morning News
Chris Vognar
Tabloid, Errol Morris' latest wild and woolly portrait of human self-delusion, is a scandal-sheet dream come to life.
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
McKinney is of course the star, insisting that her version of events is the true one and that everyone else has some sort of axe to grind and doesn't know what they're talking about.
Austin Chronicle
Kimberley Jones
Morris has found a real character in McKinney, but to what end, I couldn't say.
Philadelphia City Paper
Sam Adams
With its cutesy cut-out graphics and mock-emphatic headlines, Tabloid sends up the hysteria of supermarket-rag coverage, but that's also the fuel that keeps it running.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Steven Rea
A tale of obsession and abduction, self-delusion and sexual confusion, Errol Morris' Tabloid stands as an almost giddy affirmation of the old cliche: Truth is stranger than fiction.
Film.com
William Goss
Operates as both an examination of the dominating media mentality at the time and an embodiment of it, no less keen on delving into the juicy details now as tabloid rags were then.
Slate
Dana Stevens
Though the events Tabloid recounts took place in the pre-digital age, the film also functions as a kind of prehistory of modern celebrity culture and tabloid journalism.
New Yorker
David Denby
Morris's subject is sexual fantasy and a particular kind of American stupidity-the ability to substitute self-justification for self-knowledge. His tone is merry.
Chicago Reader
J. R. Jones
Morris adds to the hilarity with his signature device of superimposing key words onscreen in giant type; the movie is a welcome reminder that he got his start immortalizing American oddballs.
Christian Science Monitor
Peter Rainer
Morris is clearly fascinated by her mega eccentricities and lets her go on at great length telling her side of the story.

Leonard Maltin
Although he has tackled many serious subjects (and finally won an Oscar for The Fog of War, his gut-wrenching portrait of former Secretary of Defense Robert S. McNamara), filmmaker Errol Morris has always had a fondness for life's oddballs...
ReelViews
James Berardinelli
The viewer is left with no clear indication of what really happened, but with a vibrant portrait of a compelling character. That's what Morris is after.
NPR
Mark Jenkins
Tabloid spins a heck of a yarn, while implicitly warning viewers not to be so entertained that they believe every gamy detail.
Washington Post
Michael O'Sullivan
For fans of Morris's work, which often grapples with the nature of truth and memory, it's a must-see film.
