Movie Reviews

Baltimore Sun - 10/10 by Michael SragowYou go to Good Night, and Good Luck expecting inspiration, and you get it. It's also unexpectedly subtle, tense, and challenging, complex both in its take on its subject and in its craftsmanship. So the movie brings you to your feet - and, at times, to tears.
Reel.com - 10/10 by Pam GradyBy George, Clooney's done it. This paean to Murrow and excellence in broadcast journalism is filmmaking at its best.
Supercala.com - 10/10 by John VenableMasterfully crafted, wonderfully acted, and an undeniably cutting commentary on fear in the 50s that resonates even louder today.
culturevulture.net - 10/10 by Arthur LazereA smart, pointed, timely and superbly realized biopic
Flick Filosopher - 10/10 by MaryAnn JohansonOh, this is an angry movie, calm and collected on the surface and seethed with reeled-in rage underneath.
Film Journal International - 10/10 by Erica AbeelClooney confidently lasers away the characters' personal lives to focus on Murrow's maneuverings.
ComingSoon.net - 10/10 by Edward DouglasAn impressive time capsule, driven by a memorable performance by David Strathairn
Charlotte Observer - 10/10 by Lawrence ToppmanIt'll preach mainly to the choir - lazy thinkers won't attend, despite George Clooney's attachment as director and actor - but maybe it'll wake a few sleepers.
Chicago Sun-Times - 10/10 by Roger EbertThe other key character is McCarthy himself, and Clooney uses a masterstroke: He employs actual news footage of McCarthy, who therefore plays himself.
Movie Mom - 10/10 by Nell MinowI love this movie so much I wanted to go up and hug the screen when it was over.
