Leave your thoughts about Byzantium.
| Film Freak CentralWalter ChawI can't wait to see it again, to see what else I can see. |
| TV GuideCammila CollarThe irony is that while the story being told to the teachers is meant to be literal, the story being told to us is indeed an adroit metaphor -- and one about a woman's coming of age, no less. |
| Cleveland Plain DealerClint O'ConnorA vampire-hybrid movie: moody and compelling with terrific performances from Gemma Arterton and Saoirse Ronan. |
| Seattle TimesMoira MacDonaldIt's a pleasure to see a vampire movie that aspires to something artful, and that explores the misery that comes with living - forever - on blood, and in the shadows. |
| TheWrapAlonso DuraldeLines like "The pearl stays pure while the oyster's flesh rots around it" or "Would you like to kiss me? In celebration of my wickedness?" confound any efforts to make them sound less than ridiculous. |
| The New York TimesManohla DargisAgain and again, as the story shifts between women, times and moods, Mr. Jordan adds a punctuating flourish...that exquisitely illustrates the once-upon-a-time mood. |
| Chicago Sun-TimesBruce IngramIt takes a while, but the old-fashioned pleasure of watching a well-told story unfold eventually becomes the chief satisfaction in Byzantium, though there are other things to enjoy as well. |
| Philadelphia InquirerTirdad DerakhshaniWhile it flirts with the ridiculous, the film manages to maintain a certain gravitas as its many stories unfold. |
| Chicago ReaderBen SachsThis feels tired as storytelling despite some evocative imagery and typically lush camerawork. |
| San Francisco ChronicleMick LaSalleNeil Jordan's sensitive and very slow exploration of vampire angst. That the film also seems intended as some kind of vampire feminist statement makes it a rare combination of mildly boring and mildly hilarious. |
