Top Critics' Reviews
Fresh: Stunning.
Fresh: A compelling, gut-clutching piece of advocacy cinema that carries you along in a torrent of emotion as it explores the awful complications of one terrifying day.
Fresh: Watching director Paul Greengrass's explosive Bloody Sunday, you have to remind yourself at moments that you're not looking at a documentary.
Fresh: Rarely do gunshots elicit such shock. Rarely does violence feel so horrific.
Customer Reviews
Phenomonal
I come from a rich Irish background and this movie really hit home. It is incredibly sad and disturbing. The IRish opression has gone one long enough. THe Brits should go home!
a sad movie
This movie does not make you feel good. It sends a message and shows the attrocities that mankind is capable of and also about how people will cover them up to save face.
Sunday Bloody Sunday
This movie is a powerful recreation that captures the turmoil of The Troubles in Northern Ireland. This movie moves you like the famous song Sunday Bloody Sunday by Bono, The Edge, Adam Clayton and Larry Mullen Jr, aka, U2.
