Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
"Miral's" agenda doesn't play to Schnabel's strengths. His best work on film is bold-stroke portraiture, evoking complicated personalities and emotions with dynamic, dreamlike imagery.
– Colin Covert,
Minneapolis Star Tribune,
31 Mar 2011
rotten:
How can you appeal to both sides when you tell only one side's story?
– Stephen Whitty,
Newark Star-Ledger,
1 Apr 2011
rotten:
Miral has the pedigree, the attitude, the weighty subject matter. It's just not much of a movie.
– Tom Long,
Detroit News,
1 Apr 2011
fresh:
What "Miral" lacks in performance art, Schnabel attempts to replace with design.
– Sean O'Connell,
Washington Post,
7 Apr 2011
rotten:
The director injects some showy images into the mix but, without a defined frame for Schnabel to paint in, "Miral" is an unholy mess.
– Joe Williams,
St. Louis Post-Dispatch,
