Blanchett nearly saves it, but it's too much a plastic-Jesus biopic.
January 26, 2006
Blanchett gets the accent impeccably, and encompasses both the woman's determined heroism and her delight in the picture byline, but neither she nor the screenplay digs any deeper than secular hagiography.
Apollo Guide

While this is a movie that deserves a mildly favourable recommendation, it's also nothing short of a catastrophic fumble and an incredible lost opportunity.

The movie never adequately explains the inner conflicts that led its relentless-reporter heroine to die.

This is no Erin Brockovich.

Well-meaning but simpleminded.
October 22, 2003
As movie material, Veronica Guerin's life could have benefited from the gutsy probing the woman herself was renowned for.

Cate Blanchett is a vital presence as Veronica and should have romantic teenagers lining up to get into journalism school.

While I was watching Veronica Guerin, starring Cate Blanchett, I kept imagining the movie it might have been before director Joel Schumacher and producer Jerry Bruckheimer got their hands on it.

Cate Blanchett gives a tour de force performance as Veronica Guerin under Joel Schumacher's direction of a no-nonsense script by Carol Doyle and Mary Agnes Donoghue.
October 22, 2003
You don't need subtlety for a movie like this -- which is fortunate considering that Schumacher is the director -- but you need a kind of craft that Schumacher doesn't possess.
