Tag: Showing in Cinemas Soon

One of 2026’s most buzzed-about documentaries is officially headed to the Philippines.

Columbia Pictures Philippines has announced that You Can See Everything, the provocative new film from directors Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim, will open in Philippine cinemas on November 18.

Centered on controversial Silicon Valley founder Elizabeth Holmes, the documentary follows her during the final weeks before she is scheduled to begin her prison sentence. What starts as a seemingly intimate portrait soon evolves into something far stranger, more layered, and increasingly difficult to define.

A documentary that refuses to play it safe

Thirty-four days before entering prison, Holmes invites a skeptical film crew to document her life and every move.

That setup alone promises an unusually close look at one of the most infamous figures in recent Silicon Valley history. But under the direction of Fielder and Oppenheim, the film pushes beyond a conventional profile.

Instead, You Can See Everything becomes an ambitious examination of perception, control, performance, and the unstable line between truth and manipulation.

The result has already generated major critical attention in the United States.

The film currently holds a 98% score on Rotten Tomatoes, alongside a 96% Popcornmeter audience rating, signaling strong reception from both critics and moviegoers.

Critics are calling it one of the year’s best films

Among the film’s most enthusiastic reviews is one from Cultured Pop, which praises its immersive and unconventional approach.

You Can See Everything offers such a uniquely involving experience and is easily one of the best movies of the year.

A startling, radical, evolutionary work of documentary cinema built on a triangulation of characters who are the evil geniuses of our era – not only the greatest movie of the year, but also the most essential. It will destroy you, for the better. – The Globe and Mail

The publication adds, “It will destroy you, for the better.”

Meanwhile, The Guardian awarded the documentary five stars, highlighting the film’s slippery exploration of trust and intent.

What I can tell you is that You Can See Everything is a masterpiece of who’s playing who, the fragility and absurdities of trust, seemingly begotten by chance.

Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim turn the camera into part of the story

Much of the early praise has focused not only on Holmes, but also on how Fielder and Oppenheim challenge the usual boundaries of documentary filmmaking.

The Hollywood Reporter commends the boldness of the concept, writing:

What begins as a fascinatingly intimate portrait of a deluded or disingenuous scammer reveals as something even wilder, more ambitious and less predictable, until we’re left to ponder what value a personal truth has at all.

IndieWire, which gave the film a Grade A, also praised the filmmakers’ contrasting strengths and the tension created by their approach.

Fielder’s side-eye, always directed at Evans, gives viewers insight into his position, while Oppenheim’s expertise in feature narrative and documentary filmmaking elevates the film’s craft. Together, the duo keeps us on the edge of our seats, glued to the screen.

That tension appears to be central to the film’s appeal. Rather than simply presenting Holmes as a subject to be observed, You Can See Everything repeatedly questions who is controlling the narrative, who is performing for whom, and how much viewers can truly trust what is happening in front of the camera.

A closer look at Elizabeth Holmes before prison

Holmes became one of Silicon Valley’s most notorious figures following the collapse of Theranos, the health technology company she founded and once led.

In You Can See Everything, however, the focus is narrowed to an especially charged period in her life.

With only 34 days remaining before her imprisonment, Holmes allows cameras unusually close access, creating the foundation for a film that gradually expands into a three-year journey.

According to the film’s official synopsis:

Thirty-four days before she’s sent to prison, notorious Silicon Valley founder Elizabeth Holmes invites a skeptical film crew to document her every move. What begins as an intimate portrait of an enigmatic felon becomes a mind-bending three-year journey into the abyss.

For viewers expecting a straightforward true-crime documentary, the early reviews suggest something much more unpredictable awaits.

‘You Can See Everything’ arrives this November

With near-unanimous critical praise, a provocative subject, and two filmmakers known for unconventional storytelling, You Can See Everything is shaping up to be one of the most intriguing documentary releases of the year.

Philippine audiences will get to experience the acclaimed film when it opens in cinemas on November 18.
