B-
Garland's life is so inherently emotional and Zellweger's performance is so appreciably raw, that Judy manages to wring pathos by the end. Go to Full Review

Judy, a musical drama, is both a warm and loving tribute to the actor and singer Judy Garland as well as a cautionary tale about the pressures and impact of celebrity. Go to Full Review

This is a movie that showcases Zellweger's considerable talents, and for that alone, Judy is worth the price of entry. Go to Full Review

4/5
The musical scenes are very strong, and there's a real edge as we wait to see if Garland will be on song or not. There’s a few show-biz cliches here, but as Zellweger knocks it out of the park as a heart-breaking, self-aware middle-aged heroine... Go to Full Review

DCT 02/26/2020 Fabulous dahling, simply fabulous. Renee Zellweger deserved all the accolades for her performance. Just wanted to jump through the screen and slap her silly. It was criminal what the movie studios did to her. My favorite part was when she was was cooking the "omelet" with the two guys and when they and other audience members stood up and sang along with Over the Rainbow. See more Pat 01/27/2020 Renee Zelwiger was an absolutely believable Judy Garland. See more Betty B 01/26/2020 Sad but true! Loved it! See more William 01/01/2020 It was good but not great. Her voice and portrayal of Judy was fabulous but the story line was short and it was slow moving. See more julie 12/07/2019 Renee Zellwiger should win the Academy Award! Amazing. See more 11/30/2019 Fabulous if only for Rene Z's spectacular performance. See more Read all reviews
