Search: Starring Anamaria Marinca

Takes hold of the audience and never lets go.

As the action progresses, this quickly becomes Marinca's film, as she uses her body language as much as the script to suggest more subtle forms of angst.

An intriguing ‘what if’ that only comes unstuck at the end, as the movie doesn’t know how to resolve itself after a kinetic climax.

Ayer’s film doesn’t really have the script or plot to back up all the hardware.

It's never easy to remain true to Armageddon while retaining a positive attitude towards life after life

For all the apparent chaos, this is a tightly controlled piece of work which fully delivers on the promise of Stolevski’s earlier films.

Into this miasmic mess of muddled make-believe stumbles mathematician Stephen Ezard, surely the most inept protagonist ever invented.

This is astonishing filmmaking.

Features a nice, if melancholy score and excellent photography.

The overall sense of menace the film seems to be aiming for never quite works the way it should.

It presents a radically different cinematic language, childlike, initially amoral, lyrical.
