There are actors and then there are stars, and in Stronger, Gyllenhaal shows why he falls into the latter category. Full Review

Jake Gyllenhaal portrays Jeff Bauman, the young man who became a national rallying point of resistance to terrorism after losing his legs in the 2013 Boston Marathon bombings....[STRONGER] gives a great deal of space to the ordeal of learning to accept loss and find meaning in life.

Gyllenhaal, who’s slowly transformed into one of the most intense actors of his generation, plugs us into this gauntlet of physical and emotional torment. -- Grade: B

3 stars out of 4 -- Green’s film subverts its own message about the commodification of tragedy to become something even more remarkable -- a statement on the value of images of survival....[T]his is one of those rare inspirational films that earns its inspiration.

Rating: 3/5 -- This is no shallow, feel-good story. Bauman finds his way forward, but the audience sees the experience isn't just hard, it's excruciating. Sometimes just choosing to get up another day is heroic. Full Review

3 stars out of 5 -- It’s a survivor’s tale, and one that’s, refreshingly, unafraid to portray that survivor in a negative light when the situations demands it.

Rating: 8.5/10 -- Rather than show how Jeff is bolstered by the people of Boston or his family, the film goes for something much darker, more nuanced. Full Review
