Atom User Reviews for Roman J. Israel, Esq.
Life makes you choose Sacrifice or Success....
Excellent movie. It shows Denzel’s wide range of acting ability. I was sad that he ( actor) was killed at the end.
Good movie
Boring.
Too much is given away during the commercial.
I loved this movie! Very moving.
horrible movie. slow, dry, boring
inspiring and thought provoking
awesome movie, will see again
one of the best movies this year
bad ending. could have finished better. watch at home
I really enjoyed this film. Something a little different for Denzel. I was expecting a "slightly" different outcome at the end, but still enjoyed it.
not a very good story line
Could have been a great movie if they added a little more to the story. But provides an interesting perspective
very very good
Densely amazing as usual
Movie was fantastic and very insightful to our own ideologies and how we enact them and fight them on a daily basis
Very good movie. Should be more talked about
awesome
Denzel Washington has proven himself to be a great actor once again!
Enjoyed this movie. Took concentration and thought. Hit a few emotional hot buttons. I would see it again.
It was a good movie about purpose of life and karma but the ending was terrible and inconclusive.
Fennel is an awesome actor but the storyline isn't that grwat.
Denzel is an outstanding character actor. He made Israel Roman very believable.
The behind the man storyline took to long to evolve. If it was a made for TV movie it would have been great.
the acting in this movie was great. Denzel did what Denzel does. but the story itself was very slow and dull. having said that it is an insightful portrayal of the events.
The movie ended like it wasn't done.
Such a well depicted character, Denzel takes you on a rollercoaster of emotions
I didn't know what to truly expect when I saw the previews but after about 30 minutes I was so deep into the movie it was awesome. Colin Farrell and Denzel Washington are two really great actors
I wish it was more complete of a movie. Feels like I left only seeing part of the picture and not the whole thing.
This movie have a lot of messages in It just pay attention
story is not that great, so so.
Superb performance by Denzel. I wish the story had been written better
Truly amazing and a great example of our ‘justice’ system. Denzel Washington you NEVER disappoint me!
I enjoyed the movie and of course Denzel performance
Ending was not good at all. Ended abruptly with no resolution.
Denzel played the part well, but the storyline was weak.
No real resolution.
As usual Washington plays his role and plays it well.
I learned a lot and was able to understand it but as I was leaving I heard other people saying they didn't get it I found that interesting
#justok
great movie, very poignant and truly gets you to thinking about conditions of the frailty of humanity
It was ok
Denzel Washington's performance was excellent as always, as was Colin Farrell's.
Another star ⭐️ for Denzel Washington. He never ceases to amaze me.
Well written & will make rethink justice!
I have know the way to make better, is change the law. Thus came right on time.
Best pure acting movie I've ever seen
Didn't really understand the ending
really didn't get the point of the movie densial is a great actor but he played a horriable role
Metacritic
A committed Denzel Washington is wasted in a legal drama that never gets around to making closing arguments.
Washington is terrific as Roman. The character may be unclear, but the actor’s commitment is focused, and his anger and indignation are sharp and painful.
Roman J. Israel, Esq. is sometimes a compelling movie and often a difficult one to keep with, but it’s a flawed challenge that you’ll be grateful you gave a chance all the same.
