Reviews
RottenTomatoes Score: 72% Fresh
MetaCritic Score: 67/100
IMDB Rating: 8.0/10
My Response: The early buzz on this film was tremendous, as the movie pits two acting heavyweights against each other. The more recent talk about Doubt confirm that Meryl Streep and Philip Seymour Hoffman more than deliver (as does Amy Adams), but the movie does not seem to translate very well from stage to screen. I still expect Streep and Hoffman to gather plenty of awards for this one, and see it for their performances alone.
