Julia Ratings & Reviews
Associated Press
Lindsey Bahr
The experience begins to feel a little rushed and undercooked... It's still a satisfying and fun tribute to someone whose impacts on modern food culture and celebrity are still being felt. Just don't go in hungry.
Christian Science Monitor
Peter Rainer
For those of us who grew up with her cooking shows on public television, seeing her here in all her gawky eccentricity is good for the soul.
RogerEbert.com
Tomris Laffly
Julia won't be the most groundbreaking meal you've ever had, but you'll leave the table comforted and satisfied, in a state of bliss that Child would very much approve of.
AARP Movies for Grownups
Thelma Adams
With affection, candor and menu inspiration, the documentary reconstructs the lively, intelligent, curious woman who found her voice and vocation relatively late in life. Bon appetit!
Arizona Republic
Felicia Campbell
"Julia"captures Child's magnetism and offers a solid overview of herlife, but doesn't take us beyond her well-known,well-loved public persona.
San Jose Mercury News
Randy Myers
In this affectionate portrait, Child's loves, losses and triumphs, along with her skill as a businesswoman, come into sharp focus.
Washington Post
Emily Heil
A documentary that examines Child's life and influence on American cuisine and culture, goes down like a sweet crepe Suzette, and thankfully does little to complicate a lifelong fan's feelings.
National Newspaper Publishers Association
Dwight Brown
A leader in America's food movement is rightfully praised and immortalized in a doc that is a pleasure to watch. You can almost smell the Coq au Vin simmering on the stove.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
"Julia" is full of irresistible clips and interviews with its subject, trilling and burbling with her trademark enthusiasm, reminding her viewers that anything was possible and that mistakes are how cooks learn.
Boston Globe
Mark Feeney
"Julia," a brisk documentary survey of Julia Child's life, is warmly admiring. This makes sense, as there's lots to admire.
Austin Chronicle
Jenny Nulf
Julia is a thorough documentary, concise in a way that's ideal for the casual couch surfer. Like Child, the film's a delight, but slightly unlike her, Julia doesn't bring any new techniques to the table of biographical documentaries.
FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles)
Amy Nicholson
As much as I'm mildly grousing about this film, I did wind up ordering the cookbook.
Los Angeles Times
Robert Abele
As breezy primers go in a life that's as full as it gets, this collection of the archival and the anecdotal, with the occasional preparing of dishes as mouth-watering interludes, is decidedly more feast than fast food.
New York Times
Glenn Kenny
"Julia" is an apt tribute to a life well-lived and well-fed.
Chicago Reader
Adam Mullins-Khatib
Julia is well-crafted, despite not offering much in terms of inventive or unique documentary storytelling.
TheWrap
Alonso Duralde
While it might not be as revolutionary as its subject, Julia celebrates not only the woman but also her joy and passion for the creation and consumption of delicious food.
IndieWire
Kate Erbland
It's a delicious meal, but it often feels a touch undercooked.
The Hollywood Reporter
Leslie Felperin
This will hit the spot for viewers and possibly awards-bestowing bodies who hunger for stories of audacious, norm-shattering women.
Wall Street Journal
Joe Morgenstern
Julia Child finally gets the celebration she deserves in "Julia."
Variety
Guy Lodge
Child was a broadly entertaining public personality, and the film is broadly entertaining in turn...
