Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 3/5 --
A worthy effort but Armstrong remains a tough nut to crack.
Little White Lies
[A] thorough and engrossing investigation that manages to smoothly integrate footage shot for the earlier work into a very different framework.
Los Angeles Times
Rating: 2/5 --
This film, if not a whitewash, has a touch of the fanboy about it.

Sunday Times (UK)
[T]here’s an undeniable fascination in the spectacle of Armstrong concealing and confessing with equal self-assurance.
Total Film
Rating: 4.5/5 --
It's a meticulous examination of a particularly ruthless brand of power game-playing.

Sydney Morning Herald
3 stars out of 5 -- Gibney's character study of Armstrong is tough and forensic.
Empire
Rating: C --
Perhaps it would have been better if Gibney had told us something we didn't already know.

Product Description:
Alex Gibney surveys the rise and fall of acclaimed and then disgraced American cyclist Lance Armstrong in his documentary THE ARMSTRONG LIE. The director presents the complicated history of the controversial figure, including his troubled father-free childhood, his battle back from testicular cancer, his seven consecutive Tour de France championships, the creation of his Live Strong charity, and his subsequent admission to a blood doping regimen that allowed him to stay at the top of the physically demanding sport for so long. Gibney sits down with numerous reporters who tried for years to expose Armstrong's continuous fibs, and also interviews those who were inside Armstrong's inner circle. THE ARMSTRONG LIE screened at the 2013 Toronto International Film Festival.
