Michelle Williams is the latest actress to take on the daunting task of playing Marilyn Monroe,and most critics agree that her performance as the Hollywood icon in “My Week with Marilyn” is spot on.

Mark Jenkins at the Washington Post writes:

“Williams’s Monroe is more vital than anything else. The actress captures Monroe’s range of emotions and personae, her shifts from vulnerability to brashness.”

Roger Ebert writes:

“What matters is the performance by Michelle Williams. She evokes so many Marilyns, public and private, real and make-believe. We didn’t know Monroe, but we believe she must have been something like this.”

Tom Horgen says that Michelle Williams “disappears so effortlessly” into Marilyn Monroe. Betsy Sharkey writes “Williams is Monroe.”

The movie, which opened the day before Thanksgiving, currently has an 82% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Some critics weren’t a fan of the movie but almost all of them agreed that Michelle Williams performance is award worthy.

Here’s a trailer for “My Week With Marilyn.
