Top Critics' Reviews
Rotten: Ms. Hudson's frequent and distracting costume changes are a sign of deeper problems in a movie that wants to be all things to all people, especially women.
Rotten: Winnie Mandela is a simplistic look at a complex figure.
Rotten: TV-style biopic reduces South Africa's struggle to the status of an impediment in the blooming romance between Nelson Mandela and his wife Winnie.
Rotten: Like many a biopic before it, "Winnie Mandela" shoehorns an exceptional life into the standard template of a highlights reel, lurching from one Important Moment to the next.
Customer Reviews
Winnie Mandela
This is a MUST SEE! I had no idea it would be this good! This movie was written to represent Winnie Mandela's prespective during this period. Jennifer Hudson and Terrance Howard did an exceptional job protraying this couple and their political struggles.
Must watch
I enjoyed the movie, for it gave insight to the love, struggles in the marriage, and the lady(Mrs. Mandela).
Uh....okay...
It's common historical knowledge that Winnie was a convicted murderer and terrorist. This is a bit of a farce.
