- Francisco Cangiano @ CineXpress [Spanish]
- Laura Clifford @ Reeling Reviews
- Excerpt: It’s all so neatly laid out yet so lacking in the type of detail that would give it emotional soul. Even the dog Stacie so yearns for and gets with Laurel goes MIA once it’s served its purpose.
- Mark Dujsik @ Mark Reviews Movies
- Excerpt: Freeheld is a time capsule of tactful, half-hearted advocacy.
- [New – 10/22/15] | Susan Granger @ www.susangranger.com
- Excerpt: Pales in comparison with Cynthia Wade’s 2007 Oscar-winning short documentary by the same name, covering the same topic…
- Travis Hopson @ Punch Drunk Critics
- Excerpt: If poor timing were the only problem plaguing Freeheld it could be easily overcome.
- Courtney Howard @ Sassy Mama In LA
- Excerpt: A landmark case deserves a landmark movie. Unfortunately, this isn’t it.
- Charlie Juhl @ Citizen Charlie
- Excerpt: Freeheld has all the smoothness and pacing of a cobble-stoned street and feels like it is sneaking into theaters direct from its weekend afternoon slot on basic cable.
- Jeremy Kibler @ The Artful Critic
- Excerpt: It has the trappings of a preachy Issues Movie of the Week, being about cancer and social injustice, but it’s a bit better than that, being buoyed by nice performances.
- [New – 10/22/15] | Pat Mullen @ Cinemablographer
- Eddie Pasa @ DC Filmdom
- Excerpt: Freeheld is a little dry, but Julianne Moore again gives a stellar performance.
- Frank Swietek @ One Guys Opinion
- Excerpt: A glorified TV movie-of-the-week that doesn’t do full justice to either the real-life story on which it’s based or to its committed cast…but still manages to carry an emotional impact despite its predictability.
