Christy Ratings & Reviews
Kermode and Mayo's Take (YouTube)
Mark Kermode
Sydney Sweeney is very good in it.
Salon.com
Coleman Spilde
Put into the same boxing ring to duke it out, the movie's unintentional silliness easily KO's its blips of emotional gravity. But it's not just that the script is formulaic but that its star doesn't carry the same conviction as the film's subject.
Los Angeles Times
Robert Abele
It's all highlights and lowlights, rarely interested in the in-between stuff that makes watching all the rounds of a bout so necessary to appreciating what it means to survive on the canvas.
Slate
Heather Schwedel
Christy doesn't spend enough time on Martin's interior life. Instead, you're left wondering whether to root for a character who often acts like a jerk, whose more human side we barely get to know.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
What truly propels the film is the growing realization, through both the script and Sweeney's performance, that Christy isn't an ordinary person blessed with an extraordinary gift... she's an extraordinary person whose very life force is awe-inspiring.
Detroit News
Adam Graham
"Christy" comes on strong, but in the end it winds up going down for the count.
AARP Movies for Grownups
Thelma Adams
The sports drama, while a little saggy and repetitive, ends on a triumphant and inclusive note.
RogerEbert.com
Christy Lemire
In the end, 'Christy' never hits as hard as Christy does.
Washington Post
Sonia Rao
A run-of-the-mill biopic that suffers from its inability to convey what truly sets Christy's narrative apart from the rest.
Arizona Republic
Dina Kaur
"Christy" is worth watching, if only to see an almost unrecognizable Sweeney flex her acting muscles.
Filmspotting
Adam Kempenaar
Like Christy herself, the movie's redemption comes in the second half when the boxer's focus turns to reclaiming her identity rather than winning in the ring.
The Reveal
Keith Phipps
It's Sweeney that sets it apart.
Boston Globe
Odie Henderson
The script for "Christy" is shockingly inept. Director David Michôd ("Animal Kingdom") and his co-writer, Mirrah Foulkes, turn Martin's inspirational story into a Lifetime movie replete with cheap attempts at stand up and cheer moments.
San Jose Mercury News
Randy Myers
By the time "Christy" draws to a close you too will be filled with admiration for the real-life Christy Martin.
Wall Street Journal
Kyle Smith
Though Mr. Michôd doesn't do much to make the routine aspects of the film better than or even different from its many forebears, Christy's grit and determination make her a singular figure in those final scenes.
New York Times
Lisa Kennedy
[Sweeney] settles into Christy's heft but never overthinks her character, whose innate skills are decades ahead of her self-esteem.
Newsday
Rafer Guzman
A rock-solid biopic, thanks to knockout performances and a jaw-dropping true story.
Slant Magazine
Marshall Shaffer
Christy lulls us into complacency by deviating little from the standard inspirational sports-movie playbook.
RogerEbert.com
Jason Gorber
With a stunning turn by Sydney Sweeney... A credit to all involved that the sweeping yet never showy photography, the nuanced performances, and the tonal swings are all accomplished in ways that at least stand its ground against legendary competition
RogerEbert.com
Marya E. Gates
"Relies a bit too much on the tropes of the genre, but packs an explosive emotional wallop in its final twenty minutes."
