A Mighty Heart Ratings & Reviews
USA Today
Claudia Puig
Emotionally and viscerally compelling and retains a suspenseful, edge-of-the-seat quality.
Arizona Republic
Bill Muller
The only drama comes in the waiting, which eventually becomes tiresome.
Dallas Morning News
Chris Vognar
He [Winterbottom] approaches his subjects as very, very real, not just fodder for topical films.
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Calvin Wilson
Winterbottom's gritty sensibility and feel for geopolitical realities is perfect for the film. There's no room for Hollywood gloss - and no need for it.
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
[Jolie is] greatly abetted by the no-nonsense, very un-Hollywood-ish approach that British director Michael Winterbottom takes to this fact-based thriller.
Slate
Dana Stevens
Angelina Jolie IS Mariane Pearl -- and that marquee-size "is" gets in the way, not of her performance, but of our ability to suspend disbelief and watch it.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
What is best about A Mighty Heart is that it doesn't reduce the Daniel Pearl story to a plot, but elevates it to a tragedy.
Detroit News
Tom Long
Should end up one of the year's best dramas, an intricate, jolting look at life out of control and one woman's fight to hold onto her dignity and love in the midst of unimaginable tragedy. It's not an easy story to watch. Imagine living it.
Detroit Free Press
Terry Lawson
A movie as rich in detail as it is in emotion, with both driven deeper by the intensely intimate filmmaking style of Michael Winterbottom.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
Though it's difficult to watch, the film is nonetheless inspiring: a portrait of strength and character, through unimaginable difficulty, responding not with hatred but with hope.
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
The problem with structuring A Mighty Heart as a suspense film is obvious: We already know the outcome.
TIME Magazine
Richard Schickel
This movie does not fully separate itself from our admittedly low -- even slightly shameful -- expectations, does not become the pure documentary it might perhaps better have been.
Houston Chronicle
Amy Biancolli
A movie that captures the frustration of not knowing, the unconsummated urge to comprehend.
San Jose Mercury News
Bruce Newman
Shooting in what often appears to be available light, and with a handheld camera that he has tamed sufficiently to prevent motion sickness, Winterbottom keeps the picture moving along like a thriller.
San Francisco Chronicle
Ruthe Stein
Much of A Mighty Heart plays like a documentary. It feels truthful instead of puffed up to be more commercial.
Denver Post
Lisa Kennedy
Director Michael Winterbottom's film of Mariane Pearl's book constantly reaches for the authentic with subtle tenacity.
New York Daily News
Jack Mathews
Though the events recalled in Winterbottom's riveting docudrama A Mighty Heart are well-known, they are dramatized with such realistic detail and heartfelt passion that the story feels as urgent as the latest bad news out of the Middle East.
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
By the end, I actually forgot who it was I was watching play the part, and if there is a truer testament to this woman's talent then that I admit to not having the first clue as to what it is.
Los Angeles Times
Kenneth Turan
Both moving and frighteningly real.
New York Times
Manohla Dargis
Effectively fashioned, as jolting as it is polished, as well as a surprising, insistently political work of commercial art.
