      Critics Consensus

      If Denial doesn't quite do its incredible story complete justice, it comes close enough to offer a satisfying, impactful drama -- and another powerful performance from Rachel Weisz.

      Adam Nayman Cinema Scope A movie that stayed rigorously inside its heroine's muzzled sense of frustration could be compelling, but Jackson keeps cutting to superfluous subplots. Sep 28, 2017 Full Review David Stratton The Australian The excellent cast delivers the dramatic goods and a sequence involving a journey to Auschwitz provides a chilling reminder as to just what the legal arguments are really about. Rated: 4/5 Apr 14, 2017 Full Review Wenlei Ma News.com.au Solidly crafted, Denial is anchored by wonderful performances from Rachel Weisz and Tom Wilkinson. It's also shockingly relevant to the odd place we find ourselves today. Rated: 3/5 Apr 12, 2017 Full Review Farah Cheded A Good Movie To Watch Denial’s relevance has ballooned since its release, a fact that might hobble its hopeful ending but that only makes the rest all the more powerful.
