The 33 Ratings & Reviews
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
While the elements that do not work frustrate, the stuff revolving around those who truly deserve to be labeled as heroes thankfully never does.
Baltimore Magazine
Max Weiss
Corny as it was, I cried when the men were rescued.
Entertainment Weekly
Leah Greenblatt
You may never go down to your basement again without a headlamp and a 10-day food supply.
San Diego Reader
Matthew Lickona
Mostly aims for easily mined deposits of nerves and heartstrings, rather than the more stubborn, more rewarding veins of character and soul.
The Playlist
Katie Walsh
"The 33" is exactly what you can expect or hope with this story: a tense and uplifting film that puts an unbelievable true story to celluloid.
Rolling Stone
Peter Travers
You forgive the movie its faults, or most of them, because its heart is firmly in the right place.
RogerEbert.com
Glenn Kenny
This unabashedly crowd-pleasing movie gets to its uplifting but also somewhat disquieting conclusion and coda (which, as is the custom these days, introduces the audience to the real-life miners) with its integrity intact.
New York Post
Sara Stewart
It's never a good sign when the real people behind a movie's story appear in the end credits and you're stumped as to who's who.
Newsday
Rafer Guzman
A compelling but too-tidy dramatization of a remarkable rescue event.
Movie Mom
Nell Minow
Director Patricia Riggen brings the skill at visual storytelling and tender-hearted but resilient optimism she showed in "Under the Same Moon" to this story.
Chicago Reader
J. R. Jones
This watchable, straightforward drama recounts the 2010 disaster at the San Jose mine in Chile, which trapped 33 men underground for 69 days and focused the world's attention on the exploitation of miners (for 69 days, anyway).
Seattle Times
Soren Andersen
The outcome of the episode is known - all were rescued after 69 days underground while a rapt world watched on TV - but director Patricia Riggen keeps the tension high with those omnipresent sonic cues.
Boston Globe
Peter Keough
"The 33" is a grind. Literally; lots of drilling that is as exciting as a root canal. That, plus sentimentality and platitudes - even Banderas has a hard time with lines like "That's the heart of the mountain. She finally broke."
Associated Press
Jocelyn Noveck
The 33 is well-meaning, well-crafted and faithful to the source material, but ultimately it feels disappointingly formulaic.
San Francisco Chronicle
David Lewis
This material is probably more suited for a TV miniseries. There is a lot of ground to cover here: 33 miners, lots of family members, a host of government officials and the media-sensation disaster itself.
Arizona Republic
Kerry Lengel
Massaging the facts to pump up the drama is a necessary evil in a film like this, but "The 33's" cinematic beats are so familiar that they undercut the sense of realism that would make it more compelling.
Austin Chronicle
Marjorie Baumgarten
Converting a recent, true event that gripped the world's attention into popcorn entertainment is almost tantamount to admitting defeat from the get-go.
Film Comment Magazine
Michael Sragow
The supporting miners are as caricatured as the most famous miners in movie history-Snow White's seven dwarves-though the pastor, the drinker, and the ladies' man are not as engaging as Doc, Happy, and Bashful.
New York Times
A.O. Scott
With the help of some solid performances and James Horner's heart-squeezing, throat-constricting score (one of the last he composed before his death in June), "The 33" holds your attention and pushes the required buttons.
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Calvin Wilson
Disappointingly formulaic.
