Sean Penn is remarkable as Milk, giving what could very well be the finest performance in his distinguished career.

The Dispatch (Lexington, NC)
Rating: 4/5 --
The film itself can be taken as an act of testimony, mingling archival footage with re-enactments and immediacy with nostalgia.

The Age (Australia)
Gus Van Sant's portrait of San Francisco politician Harvey Milk clunks along as the squarest movie he's ever made, a result of the director investing more emotion in the martyred idol than in the bleeding man.

Like many a nostalgia trip, it stops at the moment the style it's rejecting is about to begin.

n+1
Sean Penn gives a meticulously detailed performance as the cagey and charismatic pol, but credit should also go to Dustin Lance Black, whose script squarely locates Milk at the center of his community, his city, and his cause.

Chicago Reader
The film has a talented cast, some sharp direction and a story that is as relevant today as it was when it unfolded in the late '70s.
