What the Critics say

Cape Argus / The Star
Helen Herimbi quote iconUsing a palette of mostly whites, creams and browns in scenes; this film wants us to know that when the shimmering sequinned dresses came off, Monroe was a woman who was innocent of the reality of her life and just wanted to be loved.
15
Cape Times
David Rooney quote iconMaking good as misfit Marilyn.
10
Chicago Sunday Times

ReelViews
James Berardinelli quote iconThe unpretentious, easy-to-digest style and short running length (a shade over 90 minutes), when coupled with strong acting (especially on Williams' part), make My Week with Marilyn a pleasant end-of-the-year diversion.
15
Rolling Stone
Peter Travers quote iconIt took a toll on Monroe to look effortlessly buoyant on camera. Williams lets us see why. It's a great, soulful performance. Sit back and behold.
