A rousing, demonstrative tale, and Mulligan not only shows the right sort of ardour, but also adds a bit of subtlety.

“Suffragette” dances in numerous shades of gray both in the actions of the women shown in the film and in the film’s opinion about them.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Aug 25, 2022

When an issue such as women's right to vote caused such fervor, it's a shame to see a film so devoid of passion about the subject that it fails to provoke, inspire, or challenge its viewers.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Apr 25, 2022

The story of one of the most important civil rights movements in history.

| Sep 29, 2021

Telling the story of the brave British women who fought for their right to vote, Suffragette is an absolutely superb and thrilling historical drama made by women, about women and for EVERYONE.

Suffragette is a struggle-filled 7. And fiery Mulligan is the source of the film's strength.

| Original Score: 7/10 | Sep 29, 2021

You'll struggle to find a more moving film this year.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Jun 14, 2021

A well-intentioned retelling of an important and still timely story but director Sarah Gavron leans too heavily on the kitchen sink drama for the broader story of the fight for women's rights to have the impact it deserves.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Mar 4, 2021

Gavron and Morgan are relying on the generally low level of historical knowledge in removing the socialist movement from the historical equation.

| Feb 26, 2021

Mulligan delivers a powerful, nuanced performance as a reluctant "heroine" and compelling audience guide to an important moment and movement in British history.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Dec 21, 2020

A fascinating look into the history of women's suffrage with a potent array of our generation's greatest actors doing what they do best.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Dec 16, 2020

Overall, Suffragette is compelling, emotive filmmaking with [Carey] Mulligan delivering a standout performance.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Nov 19, 2019

It's hard to believe that dropping our opinions into a ballot box, something we do so casually, took so much ink, blood, and screaming to accomplish. But it did.

| Sep 11, 2019

It is a failed movie because it relies too much on the strength of the story it tells without providing it the necessary support. [Full Review in Spanish]

On a subject this vital, at a time when women's rights here in America seem under assault more now than in recent memory, I not only would have excused an exclamation point, I badly wanted one.

| Original Score: B+ | Jul 9, 2019

Suffragette is inspirational, important and must-see.

| Original Score: 3/5 | May 31, 2019

Although not a hopeful film Suffragette is inspirational nonetheless, portraying the sacrifices made as women were pushed toward vandalism for want of a better alternative, in a no-nonsense fashion.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Apr 19, 2019

Maud is just as dull and unimaginative as the film is, which is a shame, because the real-life figures in this fight were never boring.

| Mar 7, 2019

The British suffragettes of the early 20th century deserve a more honest, grounded depiction than that, and that's what director Sarah Gavron and writer Abi Morgan deliver. Their version of the suffragette movement is violent, thrilling and dirty.

| Original Score: 7.5/10 | Feb 28, 2019

Suffragette paints an interesting portrait of an extremely important historical time, but it's so in-your-face that the point is almost lost amidst the flotsam and jetsam of its melodrama.
