You Can See Everything
Highly rated. Value is the one area where reviewers hold back: fair rather than a bargain.
⚡ The Short Version
You Can See Everything is an experimental and thought-provoking documentary that takes a bizarre, meta look at Elizabeth Holmes. It's a compelling watch if you enjoy Nathan Fielder's unique style, though the experience is far from a traditional crime investigation. Reviewers feel the value is fair, as the film's nearly three-hour runtime is either a deep dive or a self-indulgent stretch depending on your taste.
