Rating: 4.5/5 --
Rough-hewn and modest, stirring but rarely grandiose. This seems fitting, since part of what made Solidarity so inspiring was its gritty, determined refusal of ideological grandstanding or political melodrama.
New York Times
Rating: C+ --
An unabashedly sentimental, old-fashioned drama of the woman who inspired Poland's Solidarity that by comparison makes the celebration of American working-class heroines--in Norma Rae, Silkwood, North Country--subtle and complex.

This is Iron Curtain porn at its most shameless -- a rousing industrial rock song plays in the background every time [director] Schlöndorff wants to invoke the Spirit of Labor -- but [actress] Thalbach's Agnieszka is irresistible.

Rating: 3/4 --
It's a deeply affecting drama that pays tribute to a woman who's little known outside of Poland.

TV Guide
Rating: 2.5/4 --
The script plays fast and loose with the facts and adds soap-operaish touches, but [Katharina] Thalbach is a feisty delight. Strike is no Tin Drum, but her performance makes the melodrama worthwhile.

New York Post
Debatable as history, 'Strike' sets its camera eye on the underplayed "secular saints" who contribute to that history.

Rating: B- --
It's all a lot closer to melodrama than drama, but Thalbach is a dynamo.

As their stars rise, so do the pressures of fame in this bawdy sports comedy.
