Contentar Best movie of this year hands down!

Odelecol Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

Cheryl A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

suavis Thank you Mr. Schumacher for making this movie about a very brave woman. I loved watching this movie. It is a movie which was based and documented bu the real facts. So it makes watching this movie a real wonderful experience that moves everyone watching in many ways.Cate Blanchett did a perfect job in impersonating Veronica Guerin.More than one journalist deserves such a movie ........But one is high above my list, therefore my request : Please Mr. Schumacher : make such a beautiful movie about Anna Politkovskaja who dared criticize Poetin. Thank you for the beautiful film anyway.

Sindre Kaspersen American screenwriter, film producer and director Joel Schumacher's eighteenth feature film which was written by American screenwriter and director Mary Agnes Donoghue and Irish screenwriter Carol Doyle, is inspired by the life of an Irish journalist named Veronica Guerin (1958-1996). It was screened in the Viacom Galas section at the 27th Toronto International Film Festival in 2003, was shot on locations in Ireland and is a USA-UK-Ireland co-production which was produced by American producer Jerry Bruckheimer. It tells the story about Veronica Guerin, a driven reporter for a newspaper in Dublin called the Sunday Independent who in 1994 begins writing about drug-related crimes.Finely and engagingly directed by American filmmaker Joel Schumacher, this finely tuned and somewhat fictionalized story which is narrated mostly from the main character's point of view, draws an involving portrayal of a courageous and compassionate wife and mother who puts her life on the line to take down the drug lords in her city. While notable for it's naturalistic milieu depictions and fine cinematography by Irish cinematographer Brendan Galvin, this character-driven and dramatic homage depicts an empathic study of character and contains a great score by British composer Harry Gregson-Williams.This biographical tale about a woman's sole venture into a world of organized crime which is based on real events and set in Dublin, Ireland during the mid-1990s, is impelled and reinforced by it's cogent narrative structure, substantial character development, various characters, the reverent acting performance by Australian actress Cate Blanchett and the fine supporting acting performance by Irish actor Ciarán Hinds. A commendable, gripping and elegiac drama from the early 2000s which gained, among other awards, the Solidarity Award Joel Schumacher at the 51st San Sebastián International Film Festival in 2003.

paul david Wow! How did I miss this film from its 2003 release and such a great acting performance (another one!) from Kate Blanchett! I am English but I had never heard of Veronica Guerrin until I watched this movie. Now I certainly do and understand well and also about the dubious underworld which was operating at the time in Dublin.this a fine intense and fascinating movie from beginning to end, it is well directed, good dialogues, yes, strong and brutal stuff at times but nothing offensive and it certainly gets the message across! Was Veronica Guerrin gullible and slightly naive, can we only wonder? I love the film for how they connected the beginning with the ending. The ending was one of the best ends to a film which I have seen in a while, so much good about this movie, Blanchetts ability to deliver a quality performance in a character portrayal is amazing and outstanding.

Lumikinos I was expecting this movie to be much better. Unrealistic, boring, packed with low action tricks, very emotionless as a drama though dealing with such a painful topic. For me this has been the worst and very annoying performance of Cate Blanchett since the Bandits, though she is one of my favorites. Neither do other actors give a impressive performance. There are some good names in this movie, but almost everyone failed to capture by acting. I don't know if the portrayal of the characters was accurate, but their behavior is just so not realistic, as well as some events. The ending is too long and boring, too. I was really surprised how bad this film turned out to be.
