The Laundromat Ratings & Reviews
Polygon
Karen Han
Streep as Ellen is also wonderful, and only gets more fun to watch the closer her unassuming, middle-aged character gets to unraveling the machinations of the unfathomably rich.
Detroit News
Adam Graham
Soderbergh keeps the heavy themes light and even playful, and Streep rides the film's sardonic wave in a double role that sees her donning a garish disguise as a Panamanian office worker.
Vox
Alissa Wilkinson
The Laundromat is unwieldy at times, and its final scene is truly befuddling. But it's worth watching not just for its bitterly entertaining explanation of a densely confusing matter but also the way it illustrates a larger problem.
Movie Mom
Nell Minow
Soderbergh knows how to entice us into paying attention, and entertain us until we are willing to think.
Washington Post
Ann Hornaday
An intriguingly interpretive if scattershot and tonally uneven attempt to deconstruct the financial and legal arcana contained in the massive data-dump known as the Panama Papers.
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
Does it work? Enough for an evening's diversion... but not enough to get you good and mad, the way you should and the filmmakers intend.
Chicago Sun-Times
Richard Roeper
Steven Soderbergh's social satire mashes up multiple stories of various tones, but they never become a cohesive package.
FilmWeek (LAist)
Justin Chang
A really fascinating movie that is perplexing and sometimes irritating and uneven to watch, but I really like how it came together in the end.

Robert Daniels
Soderbergh's bigger mistake is coming to The Laundromat with a message, but forgetting to make the film.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Phillips
Soderbergh and Burns remain exceptionally well-matched collaborators. They're after just enough human interest to make us care, and just enough socioeconomic outrage to make us seethe - some of us, anyway.
Entertainment Weekly
Leah Greenblatt
If a motley crew of movie stars is what it takes to shine more light on government malfeasance, then let Meryl carry that torch in a wig and a bucket hat.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
"The Laundromat" finds director Steven Soderbergh in a playful mood, but this time he's a little too playful, and the result is a scattered and seemingly trivial movie about a serious subject...
AARP Movies for Grownups
Thelma Adams
The topic is fascinating, the cast top-flight, but it's a jumble - the narrative underdeveloped, sudsy and unsatisfying.
CNN.com
Brian Lowry
It's entirely possible to share the movie's political concerns and even outrage over the practices on display and still resent being beaten over the head with the message.
New York Magazine/Vulture
David Edelstein
Labored in parts but... as a whole, sensationally valuable.
Associated Press
Mark Kennedy
Like the film he made, the director is compromised.
New York Post
Johnny Oleksinski
I've just watched a 96-minute op-ed.
New York Times
A.O. Scott
For a movie about how awful the world is and how it got that way, "The Laundromat" is kind of a lark.
The New Yorker
Anthony Lane
How can a parable that set out to take the side of little people, versus gargantuan greed, end up using them as disposable comic fodder?
Slant Magazine
Keith Uhlich
Steven Soderbergh takes a macro approach to the scandal, though the results, with rare exception, are vexingly micro.
