Veronic Guerin (2003): 7 stars

5 stars for being a relevant biopic with
+1 stars for it being a woman, and
+3 stars for it being Cate Blanchett, whom I adore, and
+.5 stars for turning the gender relationships in the genre on their head, with
-2.5 stars for Joel Schumacher trying to be gritty and instead just being an ass.
