The Butler Ratings & Reviews
- WestwardTV17 november 2025My quick score 8.8/10 Not my usual watch, but the storyline hooks you
- cubano118 oktober 2025A beautiful film. Tragic as much as it is inspiring. It will definitely hit you in the feels, especially if you are watching it for the first time in 2025. The political climate we live in currently makes this film quite poignant.
- Mister Arn18 mei 2025The Civil Rights movement as seen through the lens of a butler at the White House. I think a little less of the national and a little more of the family would have made this a better movie. Still, it's better than average and worth seeing.
- Chris29 december 2024If Denzel played this role only half as well as Whitaker, he would have been Oscar-nominated. Forest Whitaker is underrated and often overlooked.
