Search: Starring Billy Crudup

Annette Bening gives a glorious, all-encompassing performance.

It’s all watchable enough if lacking real dramatic tension.

Captures the seriousness and the sweetness perfectly

Its use of blood and slime and razor teeth is more inventive than a 12-year-old needs watch.

Something has happened to Tim Burton. The darkness has left him... The film fails on every level.

There is a distinct lack of energy and focus especially for the first hour, when nothing much happens.

It is only after leaving the cinema that questions come bursting to the surface, not that they undermine Dr Niro’s magnificent achievement behind the camera

Harrelson proves once again that he is a fine physical performer and Arquette hints at the sexuality of Rita Hayworth.

What makes Jesus' Son uniquely different from the neo-realistic traditions of waste and degradation movies is its ability to avoid cliché, as well as its skewed, end-of-the-line humour.

This is a film full of cultivated emptiness.

The forced 'joke to serious point to joke' dialogue is painful and too unnatural to be credible.

A sprawling epic of our times – and all times.
