Critic Reviews:
- " Ruffalo gets top billing in the movie, and he brings some wonderfully lived-in behavioral details to his performance – the quick, terrier-like movements of the head and the bitten-off sentences. " – Michael Phillips
- " Spotlight giving center stage to unsung warriors for truth who understood telling the story right, without embellishment, without melodramatic editorial excess, was the greatest victory of them all. " – Sara Michelle Fetters
- " Spotlight is acted and directed with great urgency – and a little bit of necessary dread. " – Max Weiss
