Miss Potter Reviews
Orlando Sentinel
Roger Moore
With Miss Potter, Renee Zellweger has won back that precious thing that stardom rips away and the tabloids won't let you reclaim: her charm.
Denver Rocky Mountain News
Robert Denerstein
One of those films that commits few egregious errors, but scales few real heights. There is nothing either terribly wrong or keenly right about it. It's tidy, I suppose.
Entertainment Weekly
Owen Gleiberman
Miss Potter, right to the end, is the definition of a nice movie, and that makes it a genuine oddball in a universe of increasingly distressed and uncivilized pop culture.
Denver Post
Michael Booth
Miss Potter is as seamless, comfortable and tidy as a Peter Rabbit story, all scones and biscuits, quietly punctuated by tolerable naughtiness.
Arizona Republic
Randy Cordova
If the source material is soft, the film then takes another punch with the casting of Renée Zellweger in the title role. She overflows with tics and twitches that make the author seem vaguely deranged.
AV Club
Nathan Rabin
The film's wholesome, freshly scrubbed tedium suggests literary history drained of life and preserved in formaldehyde.
Austin Chronicle
Josh Rosenblatt
Enchanting, perhaps, but a long, long way from meaningful.
Movie Mom
Nell Minow
Audiences who come with a little patience and an open heart will find themselves moved by seeing Beatrix discover her strength and embrace the world.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Carrie Rickey
The uncertain rhythms and stresses of the piece suggest that they didn't know whether they were making a romance, a biography or a bedtime story. Miss Potter is all three, of course. And all are very engaging -- and happily G-rated.
New Yorker
Anthony Lane
A grave disappointment.
Observer
Rex Reed
I found it slight but enchanting, which is not the same thing as slightly enchanting.
Ebert & Roeper
Richard Roeper
The story really grows on you and it's very sweet and it's beautiful to look at.
Washington Post
Desson Thomson
If the movie is respectful and factually informative, it's also tightly corseted -- in dramatic terms.
New York Magazine/Vulture
David Edelstein
It will certainly play well with older audiences and the kind of adolescent girls who draw faces in their O's.
Associated Press
Christy Lemire
Feels more lightweight than it should and simultaneously not magical enough.
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
All-too-tasteful film, which is apparently aimed at mothers and daughters with far too much time on their hands.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
Was Potter really the way Renée Zellweger plays her here? Let's hope so. Dreamy, exquisitely sensitive and yet oddly focused, it's a beautiful characterization.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
It's a soft-focus picture of a woman who, surely, had a few more hard edges, but it's a thoroughly pleasant escape to another world.
Wall Street Journal
Joe Morgenstern
This attractive, superficial stab at biography, with Renée Zellweger in the title role, is more concerned with a lonely woman's quest for acceptance and love than with an author's worldly achievements.
