Proud Mary Ratings & Reviews
Ryezoo
February 14, 2025
Paper thin craptastic generic garbage. Taraji P. Henson deserves much better. The kid was so annoying and unlikeable. Mary is such an undeveloped character. The script must of been like 20 pages long. The music and tone was all over the place and corny. One star for one good action and the opening was well stylized and edited.
Chicago Reader
Ben Sachs
Taraji P. Henson does her best to breathe life into this generic actioner.
Autostraddle
Kayla Kumari Upadhyaya
Make no mistake: [Tarji P.] Henson's not the failure. The film failed her.
Los Angeles Times
Katie Walsh
"Proud Mary" isn't a retro action thriller at all, but a staid family drama, and an incredibly boring one at that.
Austin Chronicle
Marc Savlov
Kudos, though, to [Taraji P] Henson, who's mesmerizing to behold even in this drearily predictable bit of throwback blowback.
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
Where the movie falls and can't get up is in the dialogue, the camerawork, and the editing.
The Ringer
K. Austin Collins
It's too aggressively mediocre for all that, and Henson, for her many merits otherwise, is encouraged to deliver a middling performance in kind. The movie knows what makes her worth watching. It simply doesn't know how to make itself equally worthy.
Vox
Alissa Wilkinson
Proud Mary is still worth watching for two reasons. One: Winston is a talented actor, one worth keeping your eye on, and the chemistry between him and Henson as a mother figure is genuinely affecting. And two: Henson is just the greatest.
Rolling Stone
Peter Travers
This dipshit drivel guns down Taraji P. Henson's bid for action-hero glory - and it should be ashamed of itself for wasting such talent.
AV Club
Katie Rife
Henson's both-feet-on-the-ground performance tries to rein in the chaos, but the simple fact is that she-and the moviegoers, many of them people of color, who will come out to see this film-deserve much better support behind the camera.
Slant Magazine
Chuck Bowen
Babak Najafi's Proud Mary is a so-so action melodrama with an insulting whiff of generic blaxploitation stylistics.
Detroit News
Adam Graham
"Proud Mary" is a flawed shoot-em-up whose heart may be in the right place, but its head is nursing a gaping wound.
New York Times
Glenn Kenny
Ms. Henson, ever simmering, takes Mary's moral conundrum very seriously. Her expressive eyes and nuanced body language work well for the character; she can put across a major change in attitude just by shifting a hip.
New York Magazine/Vulture
David Edelstein
You'd think a movie called Proud Mary would be sonically sensational, but the busy score is so ineffectual that it might as well be coming from the next multiplex screen over.
IndieWire
David Ehrlich
It's a good thing that [the] characters genuinely care about each other, because Proud Mary sure doesn't, and most of the people watching it won't either.
Entertainment Weekly
Devan Coggan
Henson clearly has the swagger, charm, and ferocity to make one hell of an action star. She deserves a movie that does her talents justice.
ScreenCrush
Matt Singer
Better than its early January release date would suggest.
RogerEbert.com
Odie Henderson
"Proud Mary" doesn't deserve the lack of faith its studio has in it. In fact, it's almost good, so close to success that its flaws truly become frustrating.
TheWrap
Inkoo Kang
Ostensibly about a hired killer (the Halloween wigs and running-in-stilettos kind) who decides to reclaim her femininity, the picture is sunk by its all-male writing and directing team's narrow conception of womanhood as lipstick and maternal instincts.
The Hollywood Reporter
John DeFore
The lyrics of that song may urge Proud Mary to keep on, but all evidence here says she should call it a day - letting the actress who plays her find some more worthy franchise if she really wants to be an action hero.
