Freeheld

"Despite a credible and moving love story driven by strong performances from Julianne Moore and Ellen Page, director Peter Sollett’s film is an oppressively worthy and self-satisfied inspirational vehicle" 

"A well-meaning but fairly predictable tear-jerker (...) the pedestrian direction by Peter Sollett is strictly Lifetime movie-caliber (...) It's a disappointment as a movie" 

"A well-intentioned crusade that could use more fire (...) a film that adheres to expectations every step of the way (...) The one misstep in the cast is Steve Carell 's silly turn" 

"Moore is, naturally, the saving grace of the movie, but like 'Still Alice' she’s the shining light of a pretty paint-by-numbers movie and can only radiate so brightly (...) The other actors don’t fare very well —the less said about an overwrought Steve Carrell" 

"An honorable and touching attempt (...) It isn’t a great movie, but it’s a great story told with affection and heart" 

"Unfortunately, an impressive cast and significant real-life events can’t trump the fact it’s a badly made movie." 

"It’s a bummer to see Ms. Page and especially Ms. Moore (...) so badly stranded by a generic script."
