Leave your thoughts about Fences.
| CinegarageErick EstradaA film that, beyond a real cinematographic montage, depends more on the monophonic montage rhythms of which a vital but dark Denzel Washingto takes over. [Full review in Spanish] |
| MediaMikesMichael A. SmithWorking with a screenplay by playwright August Wilson, Denzel Washington crafts a fine film as a director, opening up the once stage set drama and giving each actor a place to share their story |
| Black Girl NerdsJamie BroadnaxThis film isn't about Black pain or the struggle of being economically disenfranchised. This movie is about real life which just so happens to be filled with Black fully actualized characters that have depth and grace. |
| CinemaDopeGlenn Lovell... a powerhouse of a drama ... Washington is breathtakingly good as the embittered Troy, who's erecting a wall between himself and an unjust world. Viola Davis can prepare her Oscar speech |
| The Virginian-PilotMal VincentFences lives so firmly in the realm of real people that it humiliates the bulk of today's noisy and superficial flicks. |
| Quad City Times (Davenport, IA)Linda CookPhenomenal movie based on the Pulitzer-Prize-winning play. |
| Fort Worth WeeklyKristian M. LinIt's incredible that it has taken this long to put an August Wilson play on the screen. This movie redresses that, and its performances are wholly worthy of such a quintessentially American playwright. We're privileged to have them. |
| Spirituality and PracticeFrederic and Mary Ann BrussatA poignant screen adaptation of the Pulitzer Prize-winning play in which Denzel Washington stokes the fire in his belly. |
| Tri-City HeraldGary WolcottWashington has never been better. Davis is so good she could play a -- no pun intended -- fence post and get award nominations. A Christmas Day movie present worth the wait. |
| RogerEbert.comOdie HendersonThe masterful thing about Denzel Washington’s direction here is that he doesn’t exactly open up the play. Instead, he opens up the visual frame around the players. |
