Christina Newland

Elizabeth Banks plays a radicalised housewife in need of a life-saving termination in this well-intentioned and timely drama.

Nagy’s Call Jane had the potential to dive into the topic of women’s reproductive rights, but it doesn’t lean towards being revolutionary.

Taylor Gates

Call Jane is a story about abortion, but more than that, it’s a story about community and connection — and what we can achieve when we don’t act alone.

Based on real events, the movie goes from the particular to the collective, from the kitchens to the streets, with steadiness and conviction, delicately and sensitively. [Full review in Spanish]

Elsa Fernández-Santos

... Although it recreates a very complex and terrible episode in a somewhat idealized and simplistic way, Call Jane conveys an exciting sorority in which women of all stripes, including a nun, risked their lives to help others. [Full review in Spanish]
