Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
We're shown so many symptoms that, regardless of which actor is playing the hero, there's little relief from the prevailing grimness, and less sense of a life in full.
– Joe Morgenstern,

When you consider all the ways that "Love & Mercy" could have gone terribly wrong, and how full of life it is in the end (and, yes, of love and mercy), I think the end product is almost miraculous.
– Andrew O'Hehir,

fresh:
Unnerving as it is thrilling, as visually and aurally vivid as it is emotionally harrowing.
– Lisa Kennedy,

Dano and Cusack never let us forget that Wilson is human before he is anything else - genius, icon, legend.
– Peter Rainer,

After seeing "Love & Mercy," you'll find it nearly impossible to resist the urge to download (or re-listen to) a dozen Beach Boys classics.
