Marshall Reviews

The movie is a solid, if unspectacular, piece of work, and a relief from the tired tropes of more traditional biopics.

| Jul 21, 2021

For the most part, it transpires as if designed from the most standard of templates - with long odds, harsh opposition, and surprise witnesses.

| Original Score: 7/10 | Dec 5, 2020

You will not be disappointed in any way.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Nov 17, 2020

Thurgood Marshall deserves a better movie to tell his story.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Nov 5, 2020

A provocative and involving film that soars on the strength of Boseman's relentless charisma and riveting convictions.

| Original Score: 3.5/4.0 | Sep 16, 2020

It's the perfect reminder that our real heroes don't wear superhero capes, but rather judges' robes. Will Boseman's "Black Panther" inspire a new generation to research Marshall?

| Original Score: 3/4 | Aug 29, 2020

Marshall wants to be a bold story of the search for equality while also being a very human profile of a man who would become a legend. Most of the time, the film finds that balance.

This real-life case makes for an entertaining courtroom drama that nonetheless reduces Marshall to the level of Perry Mason and consigns to the end credits his greater triumphs arguing Brown vs. Board of Education and other landmark civil rights cases.

| Mar 25, 2020

This film isn't just a biopic. And it's not preachy. It just presents the facts through a courtroom case based on race. It's courtroom drama and you become part of the jury.

Anyone expecting a substantive picture about Marshall is just going to have to lower their expectations...

| Original Score: 4/10 | Jul 16, 2019

Young Mr. Lincoln by way of the Hallmark Channel.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Mar 21, 2019

If you think you're going in to see a movie about the life and times of Thurgood Marshall, then you're sadly mistaken. Now, if you don't mind watching an entertaining and court drama, then by all means get your popcorn ready.

| Original Score: 8/10 | Feb 6, 2019

The film is handsome and admittedly rousing in spots, but also dismally familiar, and presented with an annoying slathering of winking hindsight.

| Original Score: C+ | Jan 19, 2019

Boseman, who has also played James Brown and Jackie Robinson, brings Marshall to life in an interesting way - almost like that of a super hero. It's a unique approach, but one that fits the film quite well.

| Original Score: B | Oct 28, 2018

Marshall isn't so different from a well-made 온라인카지노추천 movie. But it plays well on the big screen anyway...

| Original Score: B- | Sep 14, 2018

It's not a biopic about Marshall. The scope is too wide and too narrow at the same time, completely missing the mark.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Sep 5, 2018

An essential historical crime drama that prospers from the chemistry between the two leads and social themes that can reflect today.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Aug 30, 2018

The film turns out to be a mixture of courtroom drama and buddy comedy.

| Original Score: B+ | Aug 28, 2018

Still powerful and upliftlingly hopeful, Marshall borderlines what could be a Gad film as he interjects and oversteps.

| Aug 27, 2018

Boseman played Thurgood with a lot of lightness, a lot of charm, a lot of swagger.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Aug 24, 2018
