Critics Consensus

To Kill a Mockingbird is a textbook example of a message movie done right -- sober-minded and earnest, but never letting its social conscience get in the way of gripping drama.

Kate Muir

Times (UK)

Peck's performance, in tortoiseshell glasses and a cream linen suit, is mesmerizing and serious.

"To Kill a Mockingbird" relates the Cult of Childhood to the Negro Problem with disastrous results.

Sydney Morning Herald

Gregory Peck stays beautifully within the character of the bespectacled, widowed man, but with its episodes unevenly joined, the script is too repetitive and long.

Hazel & Katniss & Harry & Starr Podcast

Peck delivers an Oscar-worthy performance in an adaptation that basically eliminates its black characters while delivering a simplistic fable on overcoming racism

Jet Magazine

A moving, mature and socially responsible production which emphatically reveals the power and promise latent in Hollywood and made visible only when its unique resources are properly used.

It’s a multifaceted story that’s told with a great visual and technical style and that isn’t ashamed to address the deep-rooted problems of that day.

Rated: 4.5/5
