"Director David Lowery and writer Lon Charles keep things fairly faithful to Arthur Miller's classic play, but they do add a few of their own personal touches to the once again timely film." - Jeremy Raren, RottenTomatoes.com
"With its great opening sequence and strong acting performances, especially from Affleck, Mara and Steinfeld, The Crucible has set itself up as an early awards contender." - Clark Davis, JoBlo.com
"The film starts off really strong, and stays that way for the most part, but it does start to waver by the end. It loses a lot of steam by the end, which doesn't feel as impactful as it should." - Perry Manson, CinemaBlend.com
