[Stephen] Bradley's vision is clear, concise, and he has found that sweet spot between emotion, character, and visuals that come together perfectly.

The takeaway from this film is powerful, as we can all learn a lesson from Christina Noble; true happiness comes from helping others.

Stephen Bradley's biopic left me with the abiding impression that Christina found her salvation and that's rare, after all isn't that we're all striving for: salvation whatever that means.

We walk away with plenty of questions about what's going in Noble's mind, but one clear conclusion-both halves of her life would and should make compelling movies in their own right.

It moves from one traumatic event to another with the swiftness of a biopic thats trying to squeeze in all the major events of its subjects life so much so that none carry the weight they ought to.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jan 2, 2017

Inspirational true story features many mature themes.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Jun 28, 2016

Although the script wavers on occasion overall the film works very well, it feels emotionally honest and is a fitting tribute to a woman it's impossible not to admire.

It's like watching two films instead of one and the script resorts too often to a narrative shorthand, delivering 10-second scenes that seem to belong in a trailer.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | May 6, 2016

Bradley has structured the tale well, as when we do move between eras, it's done so in a seamless manner and with a minimum contrivance.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 17, 2016

Often desperately sad but ultimately triumphant, Noble is a sincere and well-executed portrayal of good triumphing over evil.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 11, 2016

Noble is a solid straight-faced biopic that is raised to surprising heights by a flinty central performance from the redoubtable Deirdre O'Kane.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 11, 2016

Even if you don't quite buy the philosophy this is selling, the three main actors are impressive and director Stephen Bradley does a fair job of slipping between the different timelines.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 11, 2016

Uplifting docudrama, set in Vietnam, recounting an Irish woman's selfless efforts on behalf of the war-torn country's homeless orphans.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4 | Sep 25, 2015

Portrays Noble as a person, rather than a middle-class moviegoer's moral pin-up.

| Original Score: 4/5 | May 28, 2015

As its title indicates, this is a straight-up inspirational tale, but its sincerity and above-average execution set it apart from many other similar movies.

| Original Score: B | May 18, 2015

Intelligent, sincere and unabashedly goodhearted.

| Original Score: 3/4 | May 8, 2015

An earnest tribute to a strong and ambitious woman.

| Original Score: 6.5/10 | May 8, 2015

A feisty, passionate performance by the Irish actress Deirdre O'Kane gives the inspirational biopic "Noble" a serrated edge of defiance and gumption.

| May 7, 2015

Her indomitable spirit and merry heart make this remarkable story vivid, true, and touching.

| Original Score: B | May 7, 2015

Uneven but nonetheless emotionally gratifying ...
