Critics' reviews

"A timely yet rousingly conventional look at the legendary feminist leader (...) the traditional approach taken by Taymor works fine "

Owen Gleiberman: Variety
"A creative, rich biopic that doesn't give a hoot about convention (...) Vikander’s performance is arguably the meatiest"

Kate Erbland: IndieWire
"Threaded throughout with stylistic extravagances that can feel intrusive, the film is most exciting when its dramatic scenes are intercut with archival footage"

David Rooney: The Hollywood Reporter
"[It] is ultimately a triumphant and insightful story about how a young girl became a feminist."

Adam Chitwood: Collider
"Taymor has a tendency to rush ahead when we most want her to slow down and let us delve deeper into the life of this feminist (...) But that’s a minor flaw in the face of the euphoria that comes from watching these women in action."

Peter Travers: ABC News
"As it stands, the film gets the job done. Gloria Steinem deserves to be discussed and admired."

Dan Mecca: The Film Stage
"The Glorias still falls prey to the problem of making a movie out of a life far too vast for a movie (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"

Peter Travers: Rolling Stone
"Julie Taymor’s film on the multiple life stages of the defining feminist turns what should be a fascinating character study into an embarrassing disaster (...) Rating: ★ (out of 5)"

Adrian Horton: The Guardian
