Movie Reviews

EmanuelLevy.Com - 9/10 by Emanuel LevyInspired by fact, this politically conscious prison drama is well written (script was Oscar nominated), but only decently acted by Redford, who might not have been the right choice.
Ozus' World Movie Reviews - 8/10 by Dennis SchwartzIt was hard to sit through two hours of such brutality and misery and say you enjoyed it.
Apollo Guide - 8/10 by Jamie GilliesRobert Redford, in a surprise acting tour de force, really stretches his style and mannerisms to become Henry Brubaker.
Newsweek - 7/10 by David AnsenBrubaker is a grim and depressing drama about prison outrages - a movie that should, given its absolutely realistic vision, have kept us involved from beginning to end. That it doesn't is the result, I think, of a deliberate but unwise decision to focus on the issues involved in the story, instead of on the characters.
Movie Metropolis - 6/10 by James PlathI never felt that I was wasting my time watching 'Brubaker,' only that it could have been a more dramatic and taut prison movie-which is odd, because it's directed by Stuart Rosenberg ('Cool Hand Luke').
Chicago Tribune - 6/10 by Gene SiskelA very tough movie, Brubaker is not for the squeamish. Director Stuart Rosenberg, whose spotty career includes credits ranging from Move to The Amityville Horror, moved into a higher strata with this one, but no matter who's directing him, one can't escape the feeling that Redford is the man behind the man behind the camera.
Spirituality and Practice - 6/10 by Frederic and Mary Ann BrussatRobert Redford puts in a stellar performance as a zealous prison reformer in this meditation on the ardor of idealism.
DVDJournal.com - 6/10 by Mark BourneRedford is the main attraction, obviously, even though his princely good looks -- like the movie's 'idealistic crusader against the Establishment' earnestness -- are almost too much of a good thing.
Creative Loafing - 6/10 by Matt BrunsonThe first half-hour is powerful stuff, but after Brubaker reveals his true identity, the movie begins to falter, with the one-dimensional nature of the characters (particularly the warden himself) eventually stripping the story of any dramatic charge.
Washington Post - 6/10 by Gary ArnoldAlthough Richter's screenplay leaves certain large areas unexplored or unexplained -- including Brubaker's own psychological makeup and the precise linkage between the groups inside and outside Wakefield that have a vested interest in resisting reform -- there's not a bit of slack in the picture.
