Critics Consensus

There's no shortage of star-is-born stories, but Wild Rose proves they can still be thoroughly entertaining -- and marks its own transcendent moment for lead Jessie Buckley.

Not a bad movie but it felt like I had seen the story before and it was slow-going. Perhaps it just wasn't for me.

The movie started out a bit rough, but it led into an amazing story that was heart warming and fun. Its mainly a story about family and success, but which one to chose. In total the movie had a very deep message behind it. I would definitely recommend it.

The film itself makes for a marvelous evening, a tribute to great performers, to humble beginnings, to home, and to the power of a well-crafted story, poured through a generational talent.

Wild Rose is never particularly surprising, but it's a familiar story renewed in a satisfyingly female-focused way.

Austin Chronicle

The movie is like an old honky-tonk song, a little sentimental but full of heart. It torches and twangs without getting too hokey.

Rated: 4/5

Nick Levine

NME (New Musical Express)

Rising star Jessie Buckley shines as Rose-Lynn, an ex-con and wannabe country star from Glasgow, in this affecting British film that's definitely a bit grittier than A Star Is Born.

Elizabeth Aubrey

NME (New Musical Express)

The balance between crowd-pleaser and cliché is a fine one, but Wild Rose manages the former while also delivering a timely message from a voice we desperately needed to hear.

Rated: 4/5

[If you're] a fan of country music, a fan of Julie Walters, wish to see a big career-making performance from Buckley or simply enjoy solid British films, then it is certainly worth your while.
