This is like trying to keep up with an erratic bar-room raconteur who keeps glossing over the important bits so they can skip on to the next bit of gossip. Admittedly, each new piece of info is wildly juicy. Go to Full Review Jared Richards The Age (Australia) 1d
3/5
With great care, Smith spent years developing relationships with former members, most of whom had never spoken publicly. Terrifying true stories told with tenderness. Go to Full Review John Anderson Wall Street Journal 4d
Mr. Smith is an insightful filmmaker and “Bring Me the Beauties” is a stylishly constructed parable about naivete and spiritual emptiness. But any study of cults involves some documentary boilerplate. Go to Full Review Joel Keller Decider 17h
Although the first episode of Bring Me The Beauties: The Model Cult needed to give some more information about van Mierers’ beliefs and how the “beauties” he recruited to his cause were so taken in by him. Go to Full Review Melissa Camacho Common Sense Media 23h
3/5
Told largely from Hoyt Richards' perspective, the compelling docuseries gives viewers a firsthand look at what it was like to be trapped in a cult that hid behind promises of spiritual enlightenment and self-improvement. Go to Full Review Peter Martin ScreenAnarchy 2d
