Search: Starring Samantha Morton

As much as 2073 mentions things, it digs no further.

Day-Lewis Jr pays attention to his actors and frames them in ways that make monologues count but there’s a lot of unnecessary brooding about in between times.

Only 15 minutes into this instant classic I thought ‘this is a bloody masterpiece’.

While Pattinson is to be commended for taking on such an un-commercial vehicle - to which he definitely does no disservice - it all seems a bit too calculated, more posturing than penetrating.

Linstrom ends so inadequately you want to scream.

When Liz dons her breast plate and rallies the troops at Tilbury, you'll want to put down your paella and rush out and sink a few Spanish ships yourself.

There is meat and crunch and intelligent plotline.

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.

Action moves at a pleasing zip with an early fight scene setting the tone with spectacle but no wall-of-noise aggression.

Morton continues to show her acting talents with a substantial - if not substantial enough - role and Malkovitch is an adequate counter balance to the very considerable presence of Depp.

Plotless, fluffy, pseudo-sentimental rubbish.

Excellent acting alone can’t stop the nagging suspicion that things are being grossly simplified.

There is no escaping the weightiness of the subject matter and Movermann treats it with the necessary respect, but he also shows evidence of a lighter touch, which helps to alleviate the pathos and prevents the film sliding into melodrama.

The glorious sight of a flying nun, an image Korine has said was one of his inspirations for the film, is both a moving and a joyous one.

Flashy future technology and architecture has been cleverly interwoven with the familiar, even the old-fashioned, to create a world which we can believe is not too far away from our own.

For a slow film, there is too much plot.

This retelling is the one you seek.

The facts are twisted out of recognition.

A hauntingly beautiful piece of cinema.

It lacks the energy and precision vital to any journalistic investigation, and especially to one taking place under this kind of pressure.

The nostalgic delight of this movie is due partly to Santo Loquasto's production design and Laura Cunningham Bauer's costumes, both of which are outstanding.

Mainstream audiences may hate and critics may debate, but Synecdoche is a work of unmitigated, undisciplined genius.

Ramsey is likely to emerge as one of the standout talents of her generation.

Jarring and unsettling at times, this is a cut above most film debuts, for director and star.

A film that often lacks subtlety in its execution despite the performances and impressive make-up craft.
