Kristen Stewart does fierce work as the radicalized '60s actress, but the biopic too often wanders elsewhere.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Feb 29, 2020

Seberg's life was quite interesting, but alas, this film is not, and that's a shame, because she was so much more than the girl in that iconic shirt wandering Paris with Jean-Paul Belmondo.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Feb 27, 2020

"Seberg" provides a chance from Stewart to move from hubris and naïvete, to fear and paranoia, and finally to a kind of fragmentation.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Feb 24, 2020

Everything about this is so superficial and the dialogue spells out absolutely everything.

| Feb 22, 2020

Seberg is played by Kristen Stewart, and thanks to sterling work by the costume and make-up department she looks more like Seberg than you might have imagined...

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Feb 1, 2020

It's an indulgent picture, a performance in search of a vehicle, a feat of set-dressing rather than the engrossing drama Jean Seberg deserved.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jan 29, 2020

Alas, Australian director Benedict Andrews has no insight into this tragic story. He's more interested in making Seberg palatable to viewers who might see her as a Left-wing extremist or, indeed, a liberal phoney.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jan 14, 2020

Kristen Stewart's performance burns with far greater intensity than the middling material that surrounds it.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jan 14, 2020

An interesting film...the performances are very good, and Kristen Stewart is always interesting to watch because she completely commits to performances...

| Jan 13, 2020

This portrait of a woman pushed to breaking point coheres around a fine, friable performance from Kristen Stewart.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jan 12, 2020

[T]he film... is fantastically flat.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jan 10, 2020

By the end, it feels as if the real [Jean] Seberg has been edged out of her own biopic.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jan 10, 2020

The film never quite rings true.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jan 9, 2020

For all her charisma, the miscasting of Stewart isn't helped by a berserker wardrobe department. The costumes wear the movie - the story is half-buried under a pile of sherbet lemon negligees.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jan 8, 2020

Stewart's magnetism can't compensate for the script's sketchiness. Seberg's story deserves to be told - what a tragedy that this biopic's finest feature is its frocks.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jan 8, 2020

Considering the horrors that constitute the current volatile political situation in America, Seberg is more relevant than ever.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Dec 16, 2019

Miss Stewart is just extraordinary... She inhabits this performance.

| Dec 13, 2019

Whatever the flaws in this wobbly tale of the FBI's persecution of actress Jean Seberg, the body-and-soul performance of Kristen Stewart is not one of them. Stewart reminds us of Seberg's once vibrant strength and defiance and stands up for her truth.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Dec 13, 2019

However well-intentioned the effort to unearth Seberg's legacy and open this shameful chapter in American History, the movie's simplistic approach doesn't quite do her memory justice.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Dec 13, 2019

Throughout, the filmmakers occlude the most fascinating and potentially powerful elements of Jean Seberg's history.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Dec 13, 2019
