Going Clear: Scientology and the Prison of Belief (2015)

I read the book, which was exhaustive and often exhausting, but ultimately interesting. The movie chopped a lot, of course, which helped to make it quite a bit less exhausting. The problem is that some of the most compelling anecdotes were sacrificed and what remains feels a tad scattershot. Testimonies in the book that were appalling were left out entirely. Scientology doesn't get off easy here, but compared to the book it's extremely tame, so I was disappointed.
