Richard Jewell Ratings & Reviews
San Diego Reader
Scott Marks
Has there been a time since the Man With No Name first rode into town when Eastwood wasn't at the top of his game? Don't believe me? Check out Richard Jewell.
Pajiba
Roxana Hadadi
Richard Jewell was an American hero, but the film named after him is more concerned with making reporter Kathy Scruggs an ambition-chasing villain in a too-tight skirt.
The New Republic
Rumaan Alam
Richard Jewell is an accomplishment in reminding us that the man was, after all, a hero. The film is a failure in making any larger point.
Film Comment Magazine
Michael Sragow
But the artist...who keeps this film from collapsing into pandering mediocrity after it devolves into anti-media and anti-FBI caricatures-is Paul Walter Hauser as Jewell.
Observer
Rex Reed
Just when I thought one of the worst movie years in memory was down for the count, Clint Eastwood arrived at the last minute with Richard Jewell, to show us all how great movies are made.
Chicago Sun-Times
Richard Roeper
Paul Walter Hauser commands the screen.
The Ringer
Adam Nayman
Hauser is Richard Jewell's most persuasive asset, and Eastwood shows considerable trust in his star, letting him fully inhabit the contradictions of a man who performatively models a form of meek-shall-inherit humility...
Vanity Fair
K. Austin Collins
Jewell, to its credit, is anchored by one of the more complex heroes in Eastwood's canon. But I'm still not certain it finds the most cutting or convincing path through this story.
FilmWeek (LAist)
Tim Cogshell
This is excellent filmmaking and a very good film.
Detroit News
Adam Graham
The truth is "Richard Jewell" only pretends to care about the man, and uses him as a symbol to service Eastwood's agenda.
New York Magazine/Vulture
David Edelstein
Eastwood... has twisted the story to suit his ends. The sad thing is that he didn't need to - he has plenty of good material, and his direction is fluid and unfussy.
Wall Street Journal
Joe Morgenstern
The story is compelling -- from hero to reviled heel in no time flat. In a jauntier time it might have been raw material for social satire; in our day it's a cautionary tale about abuse of power by the press and government alike.
Movie Mom
Nell Minow
This could have been a heartwarming story, but Eastwood's cranky "get off my lawn" perspective cannot resist overdoing it as though he was talking to an empty chair.
NPR
Chris Klimek
This film about the smearing of an innocent man is itself a hit piece.
New York Times
A.O. Scott
This is a morality tale - in a good way, mostly - about the vulnerability of the individual citizen in the face of state power and about the fate of a private person menaced by the machinery of publicity.
Minneapolis Star Tribune
Chris Hewitt
This is a story worth telling, but the way it's told makes no sense.
RogerEbert.com
Glenn Kenny
[A] fleet, densely textured drama.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
As always... Eastwood's very good with actors, and the central trio of "Richard Jewell" make the film worth watching.
Austin Chronicle
Steve Davis
[Paul Walter Hause] has the chance here to play a fuller, more rounded character for a change, and he's unexpectedly up to the task. The performance is an eye-opener.
Associated Press
Jake Coyle
If Eastwood had extended the sensitivity it shows to Jewell to others, it might have been worth something more. Instead, it becomes just what it preaches against: a hatchet job.
