Entertainment Reviews:
It is the credit of director Jean-Marc Vallée -- and the scriptwriters Craig Borten and Melisa Wallack -- that at no point does DALLAS BUYERS CLUB drift into the saccharine.
Uncut
Rating: 4/5 --
A powerfully moving film, and McConaughey's extraordinary physical transformation is much more than a stunt.

Sydney Morning Herald
The gays, in this film, are titillating extras, as they so long have been, and not only are the courageous stories of many people co-opted for profit, but theft itself is valorised.

The Daily Review/Crikey
Rating: 5/5 --
What makes the film so special is its sense of defiance and its scabrous humour.

Independent (UK)
Sometimes a character punches through the screen, beyond the film containing him. Matthew McConaughey's performance as an HIV-positive cowboy in Dallas Buyers Club is one of those moments.

Times (UK)
3.5 stars out of 4 -- McConaughey makes sure we feel his tenacity and triumphs in the treatment of AIDS. His explosive, unerring portrayal defines what makes an actor great, blazing commitment to a character and the range to make every nuance felt.
Rolling Stone
Rating: 3/5 --
McConaughey is so charismatic that, as a simple one-man-against-the-odds drama, Dallas Buyers Club is consistently engaging; almost, despite Woodroof's intentions, inspirational.

Product Description:
Matthew McConaughey headlines director Jean-Marc Vallée's biographical drama centering on the story of Ron Woodroof, a Texas electrician who was diagnosed as HIV-positive in 1986, and who subsequently devoted his life to providing fellow HIV patients with non-FDA-approved drugs and supplements during an era when doctors were still struggling to understand the devastating disease. Defying his surprise death sentence, Woodroof set out to procure any and all non-toxic alternative HIV treatments available, and established a "buyers club" to provide the treatments to others afflicted with the disease. But that mission quickly made him a target for both the U.S. medical establishment and the pharmaceutical industry, both of which resented his defiance of government sanctions, and joined forces to shut down his operation by any means necessary.
