Reviews

Washington Post - Stephen Hunter
Brilliantly played by Denzel Washington
88
USA Today - Susan Wloszczyna
Epic in nearly every way, The Hurricane has the power to blow you away.
88
Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert
This is one of Denzel Washington's great performances, on a par with his work in "Malcolm X."
83
Seattle Post-Intelligencer - William Arnold
Jewison handles this rich tapestry of non-linear scenes with the skill of the old pro he is, and carefully modulates the drama to create the maximum emotional impact.
83
Entertainment Weekly - Owen Gleiberman
Washington immerses himself, even more than he did in "Malcolm X," in a stare of unforgiving outrage.
