Critic Reviews

Bronson invites you to admire its protagonist as a pure, muscular embodiment of anarchy. And perhaps you will, but you may also be glad that he's still behind bars.Full Review

A.O. Scott
The New York Times

Whether it's Peterson/Bronson's more theatrical bits or his untamable character's many blood-spitting, knuckle-beating, explosions, Hardy chomps down on his once-in-a-career role with stunning ferocity and never lets go. He's extraordinary.Full Review

Gary Goldstein
Los Angeles Times

There are two Bronsons on display here: the impossible thug that we don’t dare release into polite society, and the guy we enjoy watching do his terrible thing. The man and the movie are both living, punching contradictions.Full Review

The Onion (A.V. Club)

This is unhinged genius, an amazing piece of acting. Brutal, yes, but magnetic all the same.Full Review

Bronson isn't a story in the traditional sense at all. It's a meditation on the art of rage - an action painting passing itself off as an action movie.Full Review
