Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
A tastefully reverent, fundamentally sincere treatment of Margaret Laurence's 1964 Manitoba-based novel, a staple for Canada's 12th graders.
– Eddie Cockrell,

rotten:
Left me feeling respectfully indifferent, as if I'd been served a nutritious meal that was only fleetingly satisfying.
– Jeff Shannon,
Seattle Times,
25 Jul 2008
rotten:
Despite a terrific lead performance by Ellen Burstyn, Kari Skogland's epic The Stone Angel is a lesson in the perils of trying to cram a hefty Canadian novel that spans decades into a movie running just under two hours.
– Lou Lumenick,
New York Post,
11 Jul 2008
fresh:
Writer-director Kari Skogland adapts a beloved Canadian novel gracefully and with plenty of spunk, the same way its main character moves through the world from cradle to grave.
– Joe Neumaier,
New York Daily News,
11 Jul 2008
rotten:
Although talented newcomer Christine Horne is ideal as the younger Hagar, letting Burstyn play the character at around 50, despite best-effort lighting, was not the wisest choice.
