“Look for Portman to appear on Oscar ballots. But look for her first at the Cineplex: This movie is unquestionably Oscar bait, but it’s worthy of a place on your must-see list.” – Kilian Melloy, Edge Boston

“Chilean bad-boy auteur Pablo Larrain is never as interested in the story he’s telling than he is in the stories we need to tell ourselves.” – Sean Burns, Spliced Personality

“We’ve known for some time that Natalie Portman is a fine actress, but with her portrayal of Jacqueline Kennedy she steps into the front ranks.” – Daniel M. Kimmel, North Shore Movies
