Pride Reviews

There have been more powerful portrayals of LGBTQ+ history in the years since (its release), and an absence of significant Transgender characters is telling. However, Pride remains a touching and clever reminder of the fighters that change the world

| Original Score: 4/5 | Jun 7, 2024

A brilliant and accessible comedy... quiet and direct, like the protest rock songs from England during those times. [Full review in Spanish]

| Dec 9, 2022

[One of] the most joyful films in existence...

| Sep 19, 2022

“Pride” is a thoroughly engaging movie that manages to be political without being preachy and deeply moving without being overly sentimental.

| May 18, 2022

Uproariously funny, with the ensemble bouncing off each other like an all-Welsh ping-pong match. But for every moment of humour there is a moment of poignancy, depicting two contrasting communities who are both desperate for help and support.

| Original Score: 5/5 | Sep 2, 2021

Pride is as heart-warming as it is a rousing call for radical resistance and solidarity between oppressed groups.

| Aug 17, 2021

By focusing on the miner strike storyline - which was a huge national story when it happened - the film creates a more authentic environment in which to tell those other stories of the lesbian and gay diaspora.

| Aug 12, 2021

Though guilty of the odd cheesy moment Pride is an uplifting protest film offering a poignant and heartwarming reminder of a time when social activism meant actually getting involved and not just sharing a link on social media.

| Original Score: 4/5 | May 26, 2021

The story might be painted in broad strokes, but it isn't afraid to tackle topics like homophobia, AIDS and intolerance.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 1, 2021

Even the most cynical viewer will find it hard not to get goosebumps as the unlikely allies pull off a rousing rendition of "Solidarity Forever."

| Jan 22, 2021

[A] rousing portrait of a key event in history, so much so as to stir feelings of activism and solidarity within the watching audience.

| Dec 14, 2019

Incredibly written, Stephen Beresford's script not only delivers a heartfelt account of a factual national movement, but also manages to weave in a variety of characters and stories, adding emotional depth to the film.

| Sep 15, 2019

Warchus has concocted a relatable film meant to cross boundaries and audiences, and thankfully isn't shackled down by its own good intentions.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Sep 5, 2019

The very best part of Pride, apart from it committing this heroism to celluloid, is the amazing cast called upon to do so.

| Original Score: 4.5/5 | Aug 2, 2019

It's powerful, glorious, funny and uplifting - a kind of Ken Loach with extra laughs - and avoids being worthy or simplistic.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Jun 4, 2019

Brilliantly played and at times very funny, Pride proves that people make history, even if they do so in ways they initially don't understand.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Apr 3, 2019

It's good to see a film that, like its heroes, fights with heart and ingenuity to change people's minds.

| Original Score: 8.5/10 | Mar 22, 2019

In many ways Pride is a very conventional film. But the mix of real-life characters and events keeps Pride from becoming saccharine.

| Mar 12, 2019

Pride is a film that works on many levels, making it a delight to behold for myriad reasons.

| Mar 2, 2019

It's the now familiar feelgood, "fish out of water", comedy of manners genre which usually plays on some sort of stock image of the plucky, genial and community-minded Brit.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Nov 24, 2018
