WHAT THE CRITICS THOUGHT:
Dark Waters, in its stunningly real and intricately crafted way, restores some of the original shock and awe to the journalistic genre of The Conspiracies Around Us That Are Truly Happening. - Owen Gleiberman, Variety
In Todd Haynes’s latest, Mark Ruffalo plays a corporate defense lawyer who switches sides to defend a poisoned community. - Manohla Dargis, The New York Times
Issue-oriented movies aren't uncommon, but this essential drama feels starker and truer than most; it's patient, unafraid, and stripped of any kind of hollow self-congratulations. - Jeffrey M. Anderson, Common Sense Media
Dark Waters is Mr. Ruffalo’s film, both in its gestation and execution, and his passion has been well served. - Joe Morgenstern, Wall Street Journal
