Wit Ratings & Reviews
New York Magazine/Vulture
John Leonard
From the Margaret Edson play that deserved its Pulitzer Prize, Mike Nichols has made a television movie that deserves not only an Emmy but our baffled gratitude as well.
Variety
Eddie Cockrell
A shrewd and triumphant retooling of Margaret Edson's 1997 Pulitzer Prize-winning play, Wit tempers its harrowing tale of an English literary scholar's fierce fight against ovarian cancer with a strong strain of the title trait.
Cinemania
Dan Jardine
Thompson gives a real tour-de-force performance, moving professor Bearing from bemusement to curiousity, fear to confusion, anger to anguish with skilful subtlety
Reel Film Reviews
David Nusair
The dour subject matter and director Mike Nichols' unflinching approach may make this a difficult viewing, but it is rewarding.
Spirituality & Practice
Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat
A powerful drama about dying and death that will soften the heart of anyone who sees it.
