Shines a spotlight on a horrible but important true story but the film never truly manages to reach the same level as the three terrific lead actresses.

It’s true that the star-studded Bombshell could have gone further in its critique...at the center of its tale about redemption for survivors of sexual assault. But the film does succeed at painting Roger Ailes as the gross, abusive CEO he’s always been.

Don’t let their politics change your view of Roach’s blazing hot take on the first strike against Fox News or turn a blind eye to one of Theron’s best performances.

So we end up with a frustrating movie that certainly sees itself as empowering while at the same time giving the real women who fought this fight the surface-level treatment.

Everything here is about the acting and its impressive leading cast. It's all in their eyes. In a delicate subject, the movie knows how not to be too much in your face and actually present drama. Sometimes it works, sometimes not. [Full review in Spanish]

A clever and sharp delight and zips by; it may leave you breathless and wanting more.

Despite these significant flaws, is Bombshell worth the time during the busy holiday season? The answer is yes. Roach keeps things moving at a confident and suspenseful pace...

It’s a tricky line to walk, but the film mostly gets it right, helped immeasurably by its performances, particularly the central trio of Theron, Kidman, and Robbie.

Full Review | Original Score: 8/10 | May 13, 2022

By failing to contextualize their race and class, Bombshell overlooks how complicated the real women who ousted Roger Ailes are.

Bombshell is worth seeing based on its strong performances, even if the way the film is framed is somewhat disappointing.

Full Review | Feb 26, 2022

The film is the latest meta-infused take on a ripped-from-the-headlines story populated by A-list performers.

Although it may seem otherwise, I am not sure that Lithgow is playing the infamous lout over the top at all. Seems incredibly credible, folks.

Through interviews with friends, family, Industry players and the late Lamarr herself, Dean builds a richly textured portrait of a fascinating, astute and insightful woman...

I think they wasted an opportunity. They tell this story through Megyn Kelly's point of the view when the real story, the meat and potatoes of this story, is [Gretchen Carlson's]

It's pacey, vibrant and high-gloss, but if you really want something to sink your teeth into, maybe go for The Loudest Voice instead.

Bombshell's fatal flaw, though, is in asserting that Fox News' only problem is that Roger Ailes is a pervert.

The only way forward was to rebel furiously, collectively. Thus #MeToo was born (...) and what a curious gestation place it had, the very epicenter of bullish conservatism.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 31, 2021

In its eagerness to magnify the true-life scandal that inspired it, the film seems to forget that behind the headlines are human beings who were traumatised daily in a boys'-club environment.

Jay Roach's timely drama flips from stomach-churning awfulness to laugh-out-loud jokes with ease.

Full Review | Original Score: 4/5 | Apr 29, 2021

...a powerful exploration of gender-politics that is bookended by dominant performances from Robbie and Theron.
