Reviews & comments
Collider
pressZellweger beautifully captures the integrity of Garland's will to entertain. Your heart aches knowing she'll never get the happily ever after she's dreamed of, but it also puts great emphasis on the value of the experiences had while reaching for it.
Vanity Fair
pressThe best thing about Judy, perhaps, is that while it focuses overly on the tragedy of her late career... it is nevertheless a compelling document of a woman who constantly gave of herself.
Empire Magazine
pressJudy is an enjoyable, sincere attempt to present a multi-faceted portrait of a Hollywood legend, bolstered by a strong Renée Zellweger.
Screen Daily

Hollywood Reporter
pressGoold's movie sometimes stumbles, but it made one indispensable choice in finding the right actress to channel the diva.
Variety
pressIt's gutsy, can't-look-away work, yet it might not enthrall those who evaluate biopic turns as Olympian feats of technical mimicry.
