Biographical war drama based on the life of the war correspondent Marie Colvin.
A sometimes clunkily executed true-life story which at least has potency in its blend of subject matter and lead actor. Despite often being hard to watch, this is Rosamund Pike’s best work yet.
Esteemed war reporter Marie Colvin is the subject of a compelling biopic starring Rosamund Pike.
Some thrilling scenes, but too many clumsy moments.
There's a fully committed from Pike as the war reporter, but no other character gets a look in.
This portrait of Marie Colvin, the daring journalist with an eyepatch, captures her badass image but stops short of revealing the woman behind the myth.
A fine performance by Rosamund Pike as Marie Colvin smooths over the faults in this impassioned account of the fearless war correspondent’s life and death.
Rosamund Pike’s nuanced performance as war reporter Marie Colvin goes beyond the cliché of the damaged but determined foreign correspondent.
