| Dan O'Neill | 95 | - Amadeus is a character-driven biography, on one of the greatest minds in art, and the man that wanted his fame the most. It is filled with enough great settings, pieces, very very realistic writing, and most of all terrific performances from both leads, that this film is a joy in all of film. (full review) |
| Damon Schneider | 92 | |
| Jim Carrier | 90 | - It's a historic look at the greatest musical mind of all-time and the dark forces trying to sabotage the great Mozart. |

| Bryan Lienesch | 58 | - Rather than using quirks as a pleasant garnish, in Amadeus it is the main ingredient. And, somewhere past the two-hour mark, amusement turns into eye-rolling. |
