Fionnuala Halligan Screen International The contrast between a highly traditional plot and visual approach with a more modern, throbbing score from Mihkel Zilmer is notably effective. Jan 13, 2020 Full Review Stephen Dalton The Hollywood Reporter Truth and Justice is deluxe period soap opera at heart. But young writer-director Tanel Toom's handsome adaptation is also finely crafted and superbly acted, a fatalistic meditation on the human condition splashed across a broad historical canvas. Dec 21, 2019 Full Review Jay Weissberg Variety A respectful, well-made literary adaptation. Dec 17, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews
