The Guardian
This is such a beguiling, generous film from Gerwig. There is a lot of love in it. - 100
TheWrap
In an era in which sentimentality is a seasoning that filmmakers either shun entirely or employ with too heavy a hand, Gerwig crafts a work about love and family and devotion and empathy that is moving without being manipulative. This is a Little Women for the ages. - 100
The A.V. Club
Little Women is the best kind of Hollywood film: thoughtful yet escapist, sophisticated yet accessible, expertly crafted and deeply felt. The performances are all top notch—Ronan and Pugh, especially, breathe new life into their characters. Gerwig’s direction is also first rate. - 91
IndieWire
Gerwig’s adaptation looks at the eponymous little women through ambitious storytelling techniques that modernize the book’s timeless story in unexpected ways. - 91
Entertainment Weekly
If Gerwig’s woke Women-hood verges on anachronism, though, it also feels fully loyal to the spirit of Alcott, a woman always well ahead of her time. And like a sort of balm too, for an era when the novel’s long-held values — courage, kindness, strength in vulnerability — still feel a lot further away than they should. - 88
IGN
Gerwig mostly plays it safe with this adaptation but a stellar cast and her impressive directorial eye mean that it's a total joy to watch. - 88
USA Today
The acting performances are stellar across the board, though the biggest joy of Little Women is Gerwig’s magnificent screenplay. - 80
The Telegraph
It would be near-impossible to love Louisa May Alcott’s Little Women more than Greta Gerwig does.
