Entertainment Reviews:
[M]arked by unexpected humor and roughneck rebellion as well as heart-wrenching humanity....A rough, raw, ragged and exhilarating ride.
Los Angeles Times
Rating: 4/5 --
A powerfully moving film, and McConaughey's extraordinary physical transformation is much more than a stunt.

The magic of McConaughey and Leto is that they can transcend the clichés and reach some truly emotional moments.

[T]hanks to McConaughey's and Leto's fearless performances as two terminally ill men going to whatever lengths it takes...DALLAS BUYERS CLUB achieves a sort of grace. -- Grade: B
Entertainment Weekly
Set in 1985 when most historians consider the height of the AIDS hysteria, and centers around Ron Woodroof, a real life homophobic bigoted cowboy that will unknowingly become an advocate against big pharma in its pursuit for a cure for AIDS.

One Room With A View
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.
