Review of Mary Queen of Scots (2018)

By Vincent Mancini (369) for FilmDrunk (362) on 03 Dec 2018

Review of Mary Queen of Scots (2018)

By Roger Moore (6,008) for Movie Nation (3,875) on 29 Nov 2018

An engrossing, marvelously-acted account of the monarchical cousins that suggests their real enemy wasn’t each other — it was the grasping,…

Review of Mary Queen of Scots (2018)

By Julian Roman (454) for MovieWeb (460) on 29 Nov 2018

Review of Mary Queen of Scots (2018)

By Stephanie Zacharek (2,333) for TIME Magazine (1,130) on 29 Nov 2018

Both Mary Queen of Scots and The Favourite, as entertaining as they are, end in a place closer to despair than to triumph – not necessarily…

By Matt Oakes (180) for Silver Screen Riot (180) on 28 Nov 2018

Review of Mary Queen of Scots (2018)

By David Crow (142) for Den of Geek (424) on 27 Nov 2018

Review of Mary Queen of Scots (2018)

By Fred Topel (1,193) for Nerd Report (100) on 26 Nov 2018

Visually dull and intriguing in only the most generic sense, but still a showcase for the twin talents of Saoirse Ronan and Margot Robbie…

By Harvey S. Karten (2,210) for Big Apple Reviews (55) on 19 Nov 2018

By Kevin Maher (647) for Times (UK) (2,458) on 16 Nov 2018
