Critic Reviews of "Lorenzo's Oil"
Chicago ReaderOctober 07, 2012If any movie of recent years deserves to be called "inspirational"--a much-abused term that one hesitates to revive apart from exceptional circumstances--this one certainly does.
VarietyMarch 26, 2009Sarandon ... convincingly conveys a fierceness and tenacity that is almost frightening. The character never lets up, and neither does the film.
Time OutFebruary 09, 2006The film comes over as a tour de force version of the disease-of-the-week TV movie: half scientific detective story, half domestic drama, replete with scenes of suffering.
New York TimesMay 20, 2003This film has an appealingly brisk, unsentimental style and a rare ability to compress and convey detailed medical data.
Chicago Sun-TimesJanuary 01, 2000It takes a heartbreaking story and pushes it to the limit, showing us the lengths of courage and imagination that people can summon when they must.
Washington PostJanuary 01, 2000Don't go to it for a Hollywood happy ending. Go to it to learn what it can take to be alive.
Common Sense MediaAugust 30, 2016Intense film about a boy's fatal illness has heavy themes.
TV GuideOctober 07, 2012[Sarandon gives] a brave, complex performance, and the centerpiece of an emotionally searing film.
sbs.isJuly 05, 2008perhaps the most melodramatic movie ever
EmanuelLevy.ComFebruary 14, 2007It takes time to get over Nick Nolte's "wrong" accent, but Susan Sarandon gives a marvelous performance in the George Miller-directed, fact-based drama about a family torn by the degenerative disease of their young boy. Tough but rewarding film to watch
