Reviews

Radio Times

Calum Baker

Stately and respectful rather than particularly radical film-making, this is a triumph all around for Lee's creative team, from its million-dollar opening shot to its memorable closing montage.

Once again, Washington proves he is an Oscar-caliber actor. It's nearly wasted. "X" is an OK film that could have been great.

…a well-assembled film that reflects the source material with genuine fidelity…Equality can’t just be assumed or declared, it has to be lived, and Malcolm X is a striking depiction of just how unfair American society has been in the not-so distant past.

Lynden Barber

Unusually rich, absorbing and often brilliant film-making, an epic deserving of the description. But that doesn't stop it from being worryingly ambiguous.
