Billy Elliot Ratings & Reviews
Common Sense Media
Nell Minow
Terrific story of young ballet dancer has strong language.
San Jose Mercury News
Glenn Lovell
A bit of working-class malarkey so unrelentingly sweet, so determinedly dotty, it makes the teeth ache.
New York Times
A.O. Scott
Real and consequential.
Washington Post
Michael O'Sullivan
There's actually a lot going on in this little movie, and first-time feature director Stephen Daldry ... handles all of it deftly.
San Francisco Examiner
Wesley Morris
Wildly invigorating.
Newsday
Gene Seymour
Its dry humor, earthy performances and distinctive take on the clash between art and life help it earn every tear and cheer.
Denver Post
Steven Rosen
An indelible portrait of its time and place. And you can dance to it.
Houston Chronicle
Even if the story is sometimes too sweet to be true, we go out of the theater feeling good.
Seattle Times
John Hartl
Jamie Bell, the irrepressible child actor who plays him, communicates a sense of urgency in the role that commands attention.
New York Post
Jonathan Foreman
Tells a story that is entirely conventional and predictable, but it does so with great charm.
Salon.com
Mary Elizabeth Williams
A surprisingly wise and funny meditation on the nature of what it truly means to be a man.
Austin Chronicle
Marc Savlov
Sticky-sweet confectioner's paste, bad for your teeth and liable to give you a tummy ache two hours later.
Los Angeles Times
Kenneth Turan
Not trusting the audience to have any reaction that has not been completely stage-managed, [Hall and Daldry] lay on the sentimentality and the cliches as thick as they can, which is pretty thick.
Detroit News
Susan Stark
A model of purposefulness; a movie rich, but not lost, in background detail and fair-minded in its account of Thatcherite woes to the working class.
Washington Post
Stephen Hunter
It demands love, which is the best way not to get it.
CNN.com
Paul Tatara
Bravo! to everyone involved.
Dallas Morning News
Jane Sumner
It's not often that you overhear someone say with real feeling after the credits have rolled: 'That was a wonderful movie.'
Fort Worth Star-Telegram/DFW.com
Christopher Kelly
Turns out to be that rare melodrama that earns both its laughter and its tears.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Steven Rea
One of those movies where it's impossible not to find yourself cheering for the scruffy underdog hero.
