A Good Woman Is Hard to Find Reviews
I found that there was nothing disappointing about A Good Woman Is Hard To Find and I am glad that it has now landed on DVD and VOD as it made my Top 20 Films Of 2019 list after I was lucky enough to catch it on the festival circuit.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Oct 29, 2024
The not so great title aside, Pastoll, Bolger and screenwriter Ronan Blaney tell a gritty crime story that takes some unexpectedly grisly turns (it’s not for the squeamish).
| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Aug 19, 2022
A compelling, and wrenching character piece led brilliantly by [Star] Bolger.

A Good Woman Is Hard To Find is a punchy, uncompromising crime thriller that delivers exactly what it promises and is a fantastic showcase for the talents of both director Abner Pastoll and lead actress Sarah Bolger.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Sep 23, 2020
A Good Woman is Hard to Find is an unflinching look at what it's like for a woman to be alone in a dangerous, misogynistic world.

A Good Woman is Hard to Find tries to be everything for everyone...nevertheless, its' refreshing to watch Sarah move from fearful to fierce.

The primary strength of the picture is Sarah Bolger's performance .
| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jul 11, 2020
Sarah Bolger's trembling, hollowed-out performance gives the film a bleak, authentic weight.
| Original Score: B- | Jun 5, 2020
A routine revenge flick packs a bigger message along with the grisly action.
| Original Score: 7/10 | May 24, 2020
A mixture of Ken Loach and pulp fiction female revenge movies not without its flaws. But as a premiere from director Abner Pastoll, it is a most auspicious debut.
| May 17, 2020
A tight, unexpected little thriller headlined by a fantastic lead performance.
| May 13, 2020
Mixing Ken Loach-style social realism with Mike Hodge's grasp of stylish murder, much in the vein of 2012's equally razor-balanced sniper shocker Tower Block, you'll be cheering for this good woman when she faces the inevitable showdown.
| Original Score: 3.5/5 | May 12, 2020
A Good Woman Is Hard to Find is a slow burn with an ending that's worth the wait.
| May 12, 2020
It's blood curdling stuff and it's not for the squeamish, but Bolger grounds it and centers it as the story of a struggling mother protecting her loved ones at any cost.
| Original Score: B | May 12, 2020
There is a marvelous arc to the character that keeps you rooting for her [Sarah] all the way through.

The film's stylishly conceived and executed, even if the layers of coincidences are too top heavy for the film's own good.
| Original Score: 2.5/4 | May 11, 2020
[A Good Woman Is Hard To Find] is a familiar interpretation of an exploitative revenge model that's ten-thousand-percent elevated by lead actress Sarah Bolger.
| Original Score: 3/5 | May 11, 2020
The engine of the project, however, is undoubtedly Bolger ... this is not a character with a limited palette, and Bolger knows how to make her a firework.
| Original Score: 8/10 | May 10, 2020
Stylish Irish noir with a killer femme fatale. Big move for Sarah Bolger.
| Original Score: A- | May 8, 2020
