Doubt Ratings & Reviews
eif999
January 26, 2025
Davis is fierce in this! Holy cow. Just a strong, thoughtful adult film. So glad I finally gave it a watch.
Detroit News
Tom Long
John Patrick Shanley the writer should never again hire John Patrick Shanley the director.
Houston Chronicle
Amy Biancolli
Doubt asks hard questions, and we dutifully squirm in reply.
Austin Chronicle
Marjorie Baumgarten
A collection of acting styles from the broad to the contained and the exacting to the unrestrained create an unevenness of tone and interpretation.
Reel Talk Online
Candice Frederick
Don't miss it.
Observer
Andrew Sarris
John Patrick Shanley's Doubt left me less moved than querulously dissatisfied despite the impressive performances of Meryl Streep, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Amy Adams, and Viola Davis in all the key roles.
House Next Door
Keith Uhlich
[The play is] a shallow work easily interpreted, and Shanley's own film version is no different in the low bar it aims for and ultimately attains.
New York Magazine/Vulture
David Edelstein
John Patrick Shanley's film of his every-award-under-God-winning play Doubt is a heavy slab of dramaturgy, dark-toned and somber, yet intense as hell.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Steven Rea
For all its high-caliber performances, its cutting dissection of the roles of men and women within the Catholic hierarchy, and its timely resonance in the wake of the church's sexual abuse scandals, there's something pat and tidy about Doubt.
Denver Post
Lisa Kennedy
In the midst of a cast that should have wowed more, in the midst of a film that could have rattled more, Davis' sorrow upends all.
Christianity Today
Alissa Wilkinson
Doubt brings assumptions about people and circumstances to the surface, and then challenges those assumptions with uncertainty and, yes, doubt. Nobody loses, but nobody wins, either
Slate
Dana Stevens
Cinematically, Doubt is something of a dud. But if it remains a play, it's an ingeniously structured one, with smart, thought-provoking words spoken by fabulous actors.
Minneapolis Star Tribune
Kristin Tillotson
While the Streep-Hoffman death match is the film's dramatic high point, its success lies in its defiant refusal to trot out even a slightly satisfying answer to the question: Did he or didn't he?
Denver Post
John Moore
Doubt is a missed opportunity, all the way through to its final scene, which isn't nearly the statement it might have been.
The New Republic
Christopher Orr
Doubt still creaks a bit of the stage, displaying the kind of tidy narrative geometry that's easier to pull off in the acknowledged artifice of live theater than in the feigned intimacy of cinema.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
Doubt, which on the page burns with stark simplicity, has gotten a little cluttered in the translation. But if you want to see remarkable screen acting, ignore the howling wind and watch these faces.
Christian Science Monitor
Peter Rainer
Doubt offers up the crackling pleasures of performance and a narrative that snaps shut like a mousetrap. It's the movie equivalent of a rousing night at the theater.
Wall Street Journal
Joe Morgenstern
The movie is a mystery tour of human motives, and a cautionary tale about the dangers of being sure.
Washington Post
Ann Hornaday
A taut, high-stakes game of cat-and-mouse drives the absorbing psychological thriller Doubt.
USA Today
Claudia Puig
Doubt strikes a deeper chill in our hearts than the creepiest thriller.
