Critic Reviews of "J. Edgar"
The New RepublicJune 20, 2013The Hoover material is ugly and very American, and it might have made an authentic monster story. But the picture offered is muddled, cautious, and at cross purposes.
Time OutJanuary 17, 2012A pleasing, intelligent film happy to describe Hoover's behaviour as monstrous but too balanced and searching to damn him as a monster.
Globe and MailNovember 11, 2011Usually the tautest of directors, Clint Eastwood has gone all slack here, allowing his subject to get completely away from him.
Newark Star-LedgerNovember 11, 2011Although Hoover's luster faded as his career went on, Eastwood's movie seems wan from the start.
Film.comNovember 11, 2011Here's that J. Edgar Hoover biopic you asked for, or at least something that meets all the technical requirements to be considered one.
Epoch TimesJuly 03, 2016J Edgar Hoover, at least as presented here, was not a particularly interesting or likeable individual. It gets boring quickly.
In These TimesApril 13, 2016A large, self-important, incident-by-incident biopic crammed with luxuriant period detail, laden with old-age make-up and powered by meticulous but riskless acting.
Philadelphia WeeklyMay 03, 2015It's a deeply silly movie. American history as kitsch, played out like a drag show.
Eye for FilmSeptember 26, 2013With noirish lighting and most of the running time spent inside offices or cramped domestic rooms, Eastwood keeps the film claustrophobic, sometimes unpleasantly intimate.
The Patriot LedgerMay 26, 2013DiCaprio never measures up to the task of creating a plausible interpretation of what enabled Hoover to be both heroic and maniacal.
