Documentary

The critical consensus

Interviews with Spitzer, those exclusive madams and vengeful Republicans are woven into a compulsively fascinating probe of power and its dark side. He coulda been a contender.

****(*)Sam Wigley, Total Film, 02/03/2011

If the slickly shot Client 9 can’t definitively prove that there was an official conspiracy to bring down Spitzer, it does make us wonder why so many federal resources were devoted to investigating this particular prostitution ring and why Spitzer’s details were leaked by the Justice Department to the press.

As corporate exposes go, it’s best to stick with Inside Job.

**(*)(*)(*)Sukhdev Sandhu, The Telegraph, 03/03/2011

Scary, fascinating stuff.

****(*)Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian, 03/03/2011

This isn't just a fascinating yarn but a penetrating character study.

****(*)Daily Record, 04/03/2011

An engrossing documentary.

****(*)Allan Hunter, Daily Express, 04/03/2011

It's a riveting story of personal hubris and political chicanery.
