Critic Reviews

Andrew Sarris, New York Observer
John Patrick Shanley's Doubt left me less moved than querulously dissatisfied despite the impressive performances of Meryl Streep, Philip Seymour Hoffman, Amy Adams, and Viola Davis in all the key roles.

Tom Long, Detroit News
John Patrick Shanley the writer should never again hire John Patrick Shanley the director.
-
Roger Moore, Orlando Sentinel
Thanks to a nearly perfect cast, this provocative glimpse into the Catholic priest child-molestation scandal manages to be deeply disturbing on several levels.

Amy Biancolli, Houston Chronicle
Doubt asks hard questions, and we dutifully squirm in reply.
-
Kristin Tillotson, Minneapolis Star Tribune
While the Streep-Hoffman death match is the film's dramatic high point, its success lies in its defiant refusal to trot out even a slightly satisfying answer to the question: Did he or didn't he?
