Reaction: The film just barely managed to break even, and even that was only due to the home video and soundtrack sales. There's not much more to say about this one. It broke even.

"Morrissey and Marr is clearly a film that aims to be taken seriously as a dramatic work, but there just all that much dramatic about it. For most of the running time, two musicians grow to dislike each other, but the emotional notes are lacking." - Mike Stotts, Portland Tribune

"Daniel Radcliffe isn't able to bring any more life to the lead role than there is on the page, resulting in a one-dimensional performance of glumness and annoyance. His co-star Jack O'Connell comes off a little better, but not by much." - Charles Triano, Los Angeles Times

"I will give Morrissey and Marr credit for not following the traditional musician biopic formula completely. Writer Alex Conn and director Danny Boyle are not afraid to show their subject's ample flaws - and let's just say that Morrissey himself would probably find offense with the film, but that's not exactly a bad thing from a filmmaking standpoint." - Allen Poole, AV Club
