A swaggering, unapologetic appearance by Yair Netanyahu, the premier’s son and presumed successor, signals a continuation of the family’s legacy.

The Bibi Files is an important documentary, because it takes in the big picture of how Benjamin Netanyahu became so entrenched that he remade Israel in his own image, in much the same way that Trump has done in the U.S. and will now try to do even more.

The film’s real power is in the accumulated testimony from others about the Netanyahus’ entitlement and paranoia.

The Bibi Files may not be the poison pill that knocks the Netanyahus from power the way that those on screen may be calling for, but it’s still a powerful presentation of the facts without ever devolving into being a mere polemic.

Beyond the videos, the movie takes a thorough, methodical approach to laying out the case against Netanyahu, even if few of its arguments are new.

If you're ready to confront the uncomfortable truth about the world, this documentary is a must-watch. But if you'd rather stay in a cozy bubble, believing everything is fine as long as no one rocks the boat, then skip it. This film exposes one of the most notorious figures in modern history, possibly the greatest villain still shaping our reality today. It's not easy to watch, and that’s exactly the point. There’s a reason major platforms like Netflix and Prime have buried it because it dares to reveal what many powerful interests would rather keep hidden. Watch it only if you’re prepared to see what they don’t want you to know.

The Bibi Files stands out as the best, most transparent, and most informative documentary I’ve seen on Israel, especially among the many propaganda pieces that cherry-pick history and present personal opinions as facts. Though it falters in its coverage of October 7, overall, it is an impressive work.
