Erin Brockovich Ratings & Reviews
- mickerdooAugust 5, 2025True story of perseverance to do the right thing against big odds. Loved Robert's portrayal of a strong and unapologetic woman. Quite sad.
- ᥴꪖ᥅ꪶFebruary 20, 2025The film is based on a real case and is about real people so to that ends it is obviously simple in structure, and nagging away as you watch it is the fact that the ending is never in doubt, it "is" all too predictable. However, what made Erin Brockovich the success it was is that the title character is not only interesting but also, importantly, intriguing. A foul mouthed hard bitten, twice divorced mother of three has to fight her corner just to get an honest days pay. It's a fabulous story backed up by a simply incredible performance from Julia Roberts. Here Roberts has let her hair down, puts on a push up bra and a short skirt, she is clearly enjoying the freedom of the role, and the results are real effective. I have no doubt that working alongside Albert Finney helped Roberts no ends, but it is her show all the way, and she alone masks over what really is an ordinary film, there is nothing we haven't seen before here, it's just a more modern take on the good versus evil corporate company scenario. It's steadily directed by Steven Soderbergh, emotional scenes are not overstretched to treacle point, and all in all it's good solid story telling. Repeat viewings prove to dilute the uplift factor of the finale, but Roberts' performance certainly holds firm for evermore. 8/10 for the film, 10/10 for Roberts' ballsy show. If only we could have had more of these performances from her.
- nydel1July 17, 2025The language in taking the Lord's name just wasn't necessary. Other than that it was a wonderful fantastic movie. But th e taking the Lord's name was offensive every time.
- Kevin WardJuly 1, 2025Probably my favorite Julia Roberts movie. Bona fide star performance. Soderbergh banger. Albert Finney is great also, but I had totally didn’t remember it was Aaron Eckhart playing her boyfriend. Such a great movie though.

- DaveJune 9, 2025Great movie! Love how Erin is a ball busting badass who doesn't take shit from anybody. Great story, the tempo was perfect, the character development was spot on. You even get attached to the small characters because of the investment of the main. Over all a great watch
