Breathe Ratings & Reviews
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
I had trouble caring about almost anything that was transpiring, not exactly the outcome I expected before sitting down to give this film a look.
The Young Folks
Kristen Lopez
First-time director Andy Serkis and screenwriter William Nicholson fail to tell a proper narrative, instead relying on disability alone to be the story.
Detroit News
Adam Graham
Garfield and Foy do standout jobs of bringing honesty and realism to their roles, but "Breathe" often suffers from sucking in too much air.
Movie Mom
Nell Minow
Very much a love story, not just between Diana and Robin but between a son and his parents.
Chicago Sun-Times
Richard Roeper
Thirty minutes in, we're pretty sure we know how the movie is going to turn out - even if we're unfamiliar with Robin's remarkable journey and his lasting impact. That doesn't mean Breathe isn't worth seeing.
Washington Post
Alan Zilberman
If its subject were around to see this film, would he appreciate the tender care that his son obviously took in making it? Or might he be annoyed to have so little attention paid to what he himself was thinking?
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Calvin Wilson
"Breathe" is obvious Oscar bait, but its engaging story and appealing cast make that agenda easy to excuse.
Austin Chronicle
Danielle White
It's a rather hunky-dory, dainty depiction of what can't have been an easy situation.
Boston Globe
Peter Keough
Too much of this based-on-truth drama relies on sentiment, manipulation, a bruising soundtrack, and lax storytelling.
Arizona Republic
Randy Cordova
The sentiment may run high in spots. But it also feels undeniably heartfelt and warm, with a particularly engaging turn by Andrew Garfield as Robin.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
In the end, it really does seem these people were worth a movie, but that the movie is giving us only part of the story.
Observer
Rex Reed
Given the limitations of his role, I can't praise Andrew Garfield enough.
Film Comment Magazine
Michael Sragow
Andrew Garfield gives his most spirited, expansive performance to date.
Village Voice
Alan Scherstuhl
This figgy pudding of a film mostly won me over.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Emily Yoshida
It's a plenty good story to tell, but even by the time the respirator takes its last gasp, I was ultimately unmoved.
Rolling Stone
Peter Travers
Andy Serkis directs a brilliant Andrew Garfield in a flawed but moving take on the true story of Robin Cavendish, who defied polio to make a better life for himself and others like him.
Entertainment Weekly
Joey Nolfi
A tame, vanilla whimper of a period drama begging for a better treatment in more assured hands.
NPR
Scott Tobias
A period art-house romance that's drunk on sentimentality and sun-touched panoramas of the countryside ...
Los Angeles Times
Robert Abele
William Nicholson's script is a stiff-upper-lip ode with spice notes of plucky humor, but lacking a messy intelligence.
New York Times
Jeannette Catsoulis
This exceptional life ... is smothered by a cloying fairy tale romance that turns every challenge the couple faces into a lark.
