Audience Reviews

helder f This a very good movie, with a great plot and great performances. Kathy Bates is a wife, a mother, and caregiver. She’s accused of killing the woman she’s been taken care of. Her estranged daughter then returns home, bringing with her the suspicion that her mother had killed her father. The movie is a bit long but Bates’s performance keeps the movie alive. The daughter, Selena, is frustrating, a bit contrived. The story is very captivating but at times surreal… there’s always an element of doubt as the story unfolds. Is the mother, the only who truly knows what happen, telling the truth? I guess some will appreciate this tone of uncertainty and suspicion, I’d have preferred something more definite Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/05/24 Full Review Devra B This is my all time favorite Stephen King movie. Cathy Bates and Jennifer Jason Leigh are amazing in it. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/16/24 Full Review Kirsten W I love the mood of this film. Rated 4.5/5 Stars • Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 06/22/24 Full Review Alec C The past can hold some dark secrets that will lead to dire consequences in the present! A reporter returns to her old town when her mother is accused of murder and realizes that the truth is hidden deep within her own mind. A sobering reminder of the affects of trauma and how on the surface, they are vey well hidden! Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/08/24 Full Review Gabriel S I find that adaptations of Stephen King's work are always enjoyable to watch, even when the adaptation is kinda bogus — definitely not the case here, making it clear. The reason is because Stephen King, although often verbose, is a great storyteller. Dolores Claiborne from 1995 incorporates the best part about King's work: character development.Kathy Bates steals the show here. There couldn't be a better fit than her to play Dolores, and what a play! During this slow ride, we get to love Dolores and root for her, regardless of the ultimate truth.If you like slow drama-heavy stories that focus on character development, Dolores Claiborne doesn't disappoint. The movie starts slow, but the great question keeps you going: is Dolores a murder? Watch it to find out. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/20/23 Full Review Montgomery M stephen king movies with kathy bates in them are so good Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/12/23 Full Review Read all reviews
