| thelondonpaperStuart McGurkSpoilt, rich, posh, vacuous and fame-obsessed - who better to play Edie Sedgwick? If she's acting or not, Miller is brilliant. Just a shame the film is so shallow too. |
| Newark Star-LedgerStephen WhittyWhy should we care about Edie Sedgwick? Factory Girl, fatally, can't find a reason. |
| San Francisco ChronicleMick LaSalleThis is a movie about power, and its spectacle is that of a woman losing all of it. |
| WaffleMovies.comWillie WaffleThis is Sienna Miller's chance to prove she can do more in a movie than look good while naked, and it turns out she's a good actress. |
| Minneapolis Star TribuneColin CovertThe film never provides compelling reasons to care about the fate of this poor little rich girl. |
| Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN)John BeifussMiller's commitment to the role makes a mockery of the movie's conservative and predictable riches-to-rags story arc and the conventionality of its 'edgy' visual strategy. |

| Baltimore SunMichael SragowPearce makes you see why Edie found Warhol as irresistible as he found her. His otherworldly eyes focus on both who she is and what she represents. He sees her as a star. |
| Reel.comTimothy KnightMiller bears an uncanny resemblance to Sedgwick and gives a striking, emotionally raw performance that deserves a much more richly imagined and vividly rendered narrative backdrop than the superficial one provided by Factory Girl. |
| Salon.comStephanie ZacharekIf the filmmaking is in some ways awkward and elementary, Hickenlooper's attitude toward his subject is more complex, and more admirable. |
