Movie Reviews

Newcity - 10/10 by Ray PrideHistory, written in lightning: writer-director Ava DuVernay's third feature, understated yet righteously furious, beautifully dramatizes a few crucial months in the civil-rights movement and the life of Martin Luther King (David Oyelowo, electric).
The Christian Century - 10/10 by Kathryn ReklisIt captures something more elusive in our fictions and in our politics: the feeling and dynamic of a collective movement.
SF Weekly - 10/10 by Jonathan KieferUltimately, what makes DuVernay's movie so good and necessary is that it actually lets us see the arc of the moral universe bending -- being bent, by human will -- toward justice.
Deseret News (Salt Lake City) - 10/10 by Josh TerrySelma is an interesting and engaging glimpse of the civil rights movement at one of its most powerful moments. It won't be the civil rights movie to define all civil rights movies, but it carries a worthwhile message.
The Young Folks - 10/10 by Jon EspinoWith inspired performances and an even more inspiring story, this film is more than just a fantastic biopic about a great man; it is also a call to action.
Fan The Fire - 10/10 by Mary Clare WaireriSelma achieves the rare accolade of being a powerful period piece with stark contemporary resonance.
Movie Talk - 10/10 by Jason BestOyewolo brilliantly conveys [King's] incandescent gifts ... his shrewd tactical intelligence, blazing moral conviction and spellbinding rhetorical power.
Urban Cinefile - 10/10 by Andrew L. UrbanThe trivia fact that Selma and Salem are anagrams of each other is only relevant because as were the 17th witch hunts of Salem, the 20th century racist witch hunts of Selma were propelled by bigoted ignorance
Contactmusic.com - 10/10 by Rich ClineOne of the finest biopics in recent memory, this drama manages to present someone as iconic as Martin Luther King Jr. as a normal man anyone can aspire to emulate.
Times (UK) - 10/10 by Kate MuirIn Selma, British actor David Oyelowo subtly transmogrifies himself into Martin Luther King Jr, displaying intelligent self-doubt, not flash political pomp.
