Critic Reviews

Sometimes we feel as if the film careens from one colorful event to another without respite, but sometimes it must have seemed to Frida Kahlo as if her life did, too.Full Review

Roger Ebert
Chicago Sun-Times

Salma Hayek makes the character an icon of female independence, courage and nonconformity, forecasting special appeal for women viewers.Full Review

Deborah Young
Variety

Endlessly interesting. It's about people who thought ideas and art mattered, which makes it a rarity today.Full Review

Stephen Hunter
Washington Post

At its best when it forsakes earnest psychological exposition for magic realism, when, instead of trying to explain Kahlo's life, it conjures the moods and sensations that fed her art.Full Review

Dana Stevens
The New York Times

If you want rich folk-art colors, brainy spectacle, and breezy soap opera, then Frida is the biopic for you.Full Review
