First let's get this out the way, Sid & Nancy is a well made film giving an apparently convincing depiction of a music scene and era where two very self-destructive individuals lived and died. This is a well made film.... Full review

I first saw this movie when I was in high school and 2 decades later watched it again. Knowing that at age 17 my perception of a 'good' movie was broader than it is now, I figured I might see some... Full review

All in the all the movie is brilliant. The acting is outstanding. Gary Oldman is such a genius in this film it makes you question wheather your Sid's fan or his. Not to forget about Chloe, who plays Sid's American girlfriend... Full review

What can you say? Gary Oldman did the best with what he had. But what he had was a script that was derived from a story based on hearsay... and not from the Pistols themselves, but from The Clash! This... Full review
A very dreary movie

Despite two superb performances from Gary Oldman and Chloe Webb this movie simply failed to hold my attention. There was no exploration of the relationship between the two and other people in Sids life were virtually ignored. John Lydon was... Full review

You cant help feeling that the perceptive director is being held back by the inarticulate actor. Instead of trying to capture the spirit of 77, director Alex Cox opts for the (literal) death of the punk scene, offering an unglamorous depiction of the sordid demise of Sex Pistols bassist Sid Vicious (Gary Oldman). ...

DVD Talk
A film of greater depth would have placed Sid's downfall in a stronger context, but instead Sid and Nancy settles as an unusual and effective romance. Webb hasn't had much success since her feature debut in Sid and Nancy and it's possible that Nancy's shrill behavior wasn't much of a stretch, but her Nancy is annoying and grating in a way that only reinforces her hold over Sid. ...

DVD Town
The movie chronicles the tumultuously short relationship of Sid and an American groupie, Nancy Spungen. Chloe Webb parallels Oldman's performance as Nancy, the young woman as crazy as Sid is. ... Full Review

Chloe Webb as Nancy is equally superb in her role. Nancy (Chloe Webb), on the other hand, was more pitiful than rebellious. Sid doesn't kick her out of bed but refuses to fuck her because "sex is boring". ... Full Review

Edinburgh U Film Society
This just reinforces the point of the film; it is about two people, not trends, not punk, not drugs, just two lost, misplaced people. In this biopic he deals with two of the most infamous characters in music history, a harrowing, visceral work that has you reeling in disbelief and wonder. ... Full Review
