Search: Starring Tobey Maguire

The script is hilarious and the CGI's lip-and-eye treatment positively perfect

So silly only a certified boring person would not enjoy.

Being prolific implies over-exposure and repetition. Not with Allen. He gets better. He takes more risks.

Gilliam uses voice over (too much?) to give a taste of the Hunter S style and help explain what on earth is going on.

All this window dressing is just sleight of hand; pull it aside and there’s no movie there.

The closer Luhrmann stays to the spirit of Fitzgerald and the more he trusts his cast, the better the result.

James Schamus's script is sharp and witty. Lee is very good at getting affecting performances out of actors, especially the younger ones.

The ingredients may look to be all there but Reitman's effort feels too full of studio additives and overcooked.

The film springboards into carefully balanced comedy, and surprising social commentary.

There are arduous stretches, between ill-organised sorties, in which conversation dries in the mouth.

The film's formula is as neat as a well-pressed suit.

The 12-certificate seems severe. This is a kids movie if ever there was one.

The effects are eye-popping and the look of the film is exquisite.

Whooshing between buildings at high speed over and over again feels like an overdose of Ritalin. The three-way baddie climax is nauseating, unexciting and full of contrivances.

The most intelligent American movie since The Ice Storm to deal with the dissolution of promise, the death of ideals and how creative passion is a form of insanity.
