Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
At the moment, it's my favorite movie of the year.
– Cole Haddon,

fresh:
Sean Penn gives a meticulously detailed performance as the cagey and charismatic pol, but credit should also go to Dustin Lance Black, whose script squarely locates Milk at the center of his community, his city, and his cause.

The story is sad, but the mood is jubilant and the energy relentless.

Perhaps it is simply an accident of timing that puts Milk in theaters at this moment. But fate or simple fortunate timing, Milk arrives as one of the best films of 2008.
– Roger Moore,

fresh:
Penn's performance is a marvelous act of empathy in a movie that, for all its surprisingly conventional style, measures up to its stirring subject.
