As an ordinary coming-of-age drama, Stonewall is merely dull and scattered -- but as an attempt to depict a pivotal moment in American history, it's offensively bad.

The Stonewall Riots were a triumph for a marginalized community, but Emmerich fails to convey the significance of the event in any meaningful fashion. The subject matter deserves better, and so do we. September 28, 2015 | Rating: D | Full Review…

It's a self-financed passion project, from a man who might be the most financially successful out gay filmmaker ever. We should be celebrating this, but man, oh man, does he make it difficult. September 25, 2015 | Full Review…

Although handsomely crafted, well-acted and made with transparently noble intentions, Roland Emmerich's "Stonewall" is a movie that seems destined to please almost no one. September 25, 2015 | Rating: 1.5/4 | Full Review…

Danny isn't all that interesting. And the sadder fact is that the filmmakers seem to know that, but worry an audience won't identify with a more flamboyant character. So they present this safer, paler alternative. September 25, 2015 | Rating: 1.5/4

The highly anticipated/dreaded foray into the birth of the contemporary gay rights movement from director Roland Emmerich reduces this watershed civil rights moment to a tepid coming-out fable. August 22, 2018 | Full Review…

[Roland Emmerich's] heart's in the right place, but the director of "Independence Day" is perhaps not the best person to capture the gritty and multi-racial reality of street life, then or now. February 15, 2018 | Full Review…
