CRITICS OF "Veronica Guerin"

Arkansas Democrat-Gazette

...a respectful quasi-documentary

September 09, 2007

Time Out

Blanchett gets the accent impeccably, and encompasses both the woman's determined heroism and her delight in the picture byline, but neither she nor the screenplay digs any deeper than secular hagiography.

January 26, 2006

Resource

Common Sense Media

This is no Erin Brockovich.

December 29, 2010

Philadelphia Inquirer

The movie never adequately explains the inner conflicts that led its relentless-reporter heroine to die.

October 17, 2003

Observer (UK)

Cate Blanchett is a vital presence as Veronica and should have romantic teenagers lining up to get into journalism school.

October 15, 2007

Resource

ColeSmithey.com

Cate Blanchett gives a tour de force performance as Veronica Guerin under Joel Schumacher's direction of a no-nonsense script by Carol Doyle and Mary Agnes Donoghue.

April 19, 2009

Resource

Apollo Guide

While this is a movie that deserves a mildly favourable recommendation, it's also nothing short of a catastrophic fumble and an incredible lost opportunity.

June 04, 2007

eFilmCritic.com

Blanchett nearly saves it, but it's too much a plastic-Jesus biopic.

July 24, 2007

Resource

Salon.com

You don't need subtlety for a movie like this -- which is fortunate considering that Schumacher is the director -- but you need a kind of craft that Schumacher doesn't possess.

October 22, 2003

Resource

Chicago Reader

Well-meaning but simpleminded.

October 15, 2007

New York Magazine/Vulture

While I was watching Veronica Guerin, starring Cate Blanchett, I kept imagining the movie it might have been before director Joel Schumacher and producer Jerry Bruckheimer got their hands on it.

August 07, 2004

Toronto Star

As movie material, Veronica Guerin's life could have benefited from the gutsy probing the woman herself was renowned for.
