To Leslie Reviews
This is the power of Riseborough’s work: she inhabits Leslie without an ounce of vanity, and as deserving as Leslie is of our pity, Riseborough makes sure she works for it.

The screenplay is deeply vulnerable and provides a backstory of the events by revealing them slowly. Riseborough’s performance cannot be overstated.

A heartrending study of addiction and redemption.
| May 18, 2023
While this film may not present itself as an entirely original concept or lead character, but its honest screenplay, strong narrative, and exceptional performances manage to keep viewers thoroughly engaged.
| Original Score: 3.5/5 | May 17, 2023
To Leslie isn't always an easy film to watch. But neither is it bleak or depressing. There is a lot of warmth, honesty and authenticity here.
| Original Score: 4.5/5 | May 10, 2023
it’s the moment-to-moment capture of Riseborough’s features that counts: the camerawork by Larkin Seiple... does a dance of rare and haunted intimacy, measuring Leslie’s vulnerability, but patient in capturing hurt...
| Original Score: 8/10 | Mar 20, 2023
[It] forces Riseborough to imitate an ape in order to convey American dissolution, something her stunning profile works against at every moment in this film.

This isn't a performance courting attention, but one committed to conveying what's swishing and swirling within a tumultuous character whose strengths and missteps are both always in view.

Riseborough’s performance is very fine indeed, as she captures all the flaws and attributes of a woman who’s had a very tough life, a woman who has been her own worst enemy, but who somehow survives and endures.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Mar 10, 2023
A stellar, charismatic, challenging, empathetic performance (surrounded by a constellation of appealing supporting actors) in a movie that is otherwise just fine.
| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Mar 10, 2023
Riseborough’s performance is spectacular -- a high-wire act, from despair to repair and everywhere in between.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Mar 10, 2023
Riseborough needs no awards to confirm her virtuosity in a movie never as good as she.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Mar 9, 2023
Strong work from Marc Macron and Allison Janney dutifully serve Riseborough's searing portrait of the dark depths of addiction and the corresponding craving for hope and redemption.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Mar 9, 2023
Andrea Riseborough is a lit fuse as a lost soul inflamed by booze.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Mar 9, 2023
Another less pleasant filmic experience that revels in the ugliness and the flaws of human beings, To Leslie is worth a watch for Riseborough’s committed turn.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Mar 9, 2023
... along the lines of Red Rocket, but without its spark; made by a 온라인카지노추천 director who needs two interminable hours to realize a self-indulgent, deceitful and repetitive screenplay. [Full review in Spanish]
| Original Score: 2/5 | Mar 8, 2023
