Marshall Ratings & Reviews
Chris
October 28, 2024
“It’s not really fires I’m after, Sam. It’s fire itself.” - Thurgood Marshall Excellent performances by Chadwick Boseman & Josh Gad.
Entertainment Weekly
Devan Coggan
Boseman has headlined biopics before as James Brown and Jackie Robinson, and here, he imbues the young Marshall with a quiet confidence and a dogged devotion to truth and justice.
Chicago Sun-Times
Richard Roeper
Marshall reminds us that before the legend, there was the badass young warrior.
indieWire
David Ehrlich
The problem with this hokey courtroom drama isn't that it says the right thing in the wrong way, the problem is that it ultimately doesn't say anything at all.
AV Club
Jesse Hassenger
Marshall isn't so different from a well-made TV movie. But it plays well on the big screen anyway...
Rolling Stone
Peter Travers
Charged by Boseman's dramatic lightning, Marshall gives us an electrifying glimpse of a great man in the making.
Baltimore Magazine
Max Weiss
Marshall isn't particularly interested in going deep on Thurgood Marshall the man-it's more about the Marshall, the myth. That said, what it is is just fine.

Sara Michelle Fetters
By all means, see this film. Just make sure to learn more about the great man at its center as soon as possible after you exit the theatre.
Chicago Reader
J. R. Jones
This real-life case makes for an entertaining courtroom drama that nonetheless reduces Marshall to the level of Perry Mason and consigns to the end credits his greater triumphs arguing Brown vs. Board of Education and other landmark civil rights cases.

Andrea Gronvall
This real-life case makes for an entertaining courtroom drama that nonetheless reduces Marshall to the level of Perry Mason and consigns to the end credits his greater triumphs.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Angelica Jade Bastién
In ignoring the lived reality of colorism, Marshall creates a circumscribed version of blackness that's easy for white audiences to consume, lacks any sort of challenging narrative, and bypasses the more fascinating wrinkles in its characters' lives.
NPR
Bob Mondello
The tight focus helps make Marshall more courtroom drama than biopic.
The Ringer
K. Austin Collins
A relatively bland historical drama is at its best when toeing the line between the comical irony of racism and the outright brutality it inspires
Andscape
Soraya Nadia McDonald
The shortcomings that separate Marshall from Hidden Figures and Loving are the same ones that give it the feeling of a TV movie.
leonardmaltin.com
Leonard Maltin
I kept hoping that Marshall would take off and soar, which it never quite does... but it tells its story well.
Detroit News
Adam Graham
You have to think there are better ways to tell the story of Marshall, his life and his climb to the land's highest court, but those details are left to post-script notes.
Chesapeake Family Magazine
Roxana Hadadi
Chadwick Boseman makes a charismatic Thurgood Marshall, but the biopic Marshall is not what the legendary man deserved; its focus is too often turned away from Marshall himself.
Tribune News Service
Katie Walsh
For a film simply called "Marshall," you do expect to get a wider slice of his life, which is relegated to onscreen text. In fact, he ultimately becomes an ensemble player in his own eponymous film.
Movie Mom
Nell Minow
This is an absorbing drama on many levels, as a courtroom mystery, as a historical depiction of the roots and mechanics of social change, and as a personal story.
America Magazine
John Anderson
The last time a Supreme Court justice got this treatment was never.
