Lee Ray Oliver grew up from abused kid to sociopath, inevitably condemned to death, but wakes up in the morgue after the 'lethal' injection. Dr. Michael Copeland offers him a choice: the real killer drug or 'volunteering' as life-long test person for his pharmaceutic experiment, Anagress, meant to suppress violent tendencies but side-effects unknown. After vicious escape attempts, Lee Ray finally develops genuine remorse and tries to make-up with Gary Caputo, who Lee shot in the head, leaving him mentally a child. Brother Bill Caputo's hate for ruining both of their lives is however redoubled, with tragic consequences.
Leave your thoughts about Control.
| Sydney Morning HeraldSandra HallSam Riley, a newcomer to the big screen who portrays Curtis with eerie accuracy, has the stringy, underfed looks of a schoolboy in the midst of a sudden growth spurt. |
| London Evening StandardDerek MalcolmThe film is touching because it is very honest. |
| ViewLondonMatthew TurnerBeautifully shot, superbly directed biopic with a great script and a terrific performance from newcomer Sam Riley. |
| The Film YapNick RogersThe way Ian Curtis blocked his onstage movement mirrored isolationism in his home life. He clasped the microphone stand like a drowning man would a life preserver, but he couldn't stay afloat in dreary waters of his own creation. A seamless rock biopic. |
| Filmcritic.comChris CabinCommits the crime of turning Curtis into just another music legend. |
| L.A. WeeklyTim GriersonControl honors its subject's eternal self-doubt by honing in on that truth and leaving the legend to others. |
| Detroit Free PressTerry LawsonRiley gives a star-making performance as the complicated Curtis, and gets more points for convincing director Corbijn, who has shot the film in moody, monochromatic wide-screen black-and-white. |
| Philadelphia InquirerSteven ReaThe movie examines a life -- and a death -- without getting deep about it. The result is oddly exhilarating. |
| Austin ChronicleMarc SavlovControl is easily one of the finest films ever made about the collision of music, madness, and the human heart. |
| NewsBlazePrairie MillerPositioning art as a necessary surrender to a creative force which removes the self dangerously from existence and society, Control intimately connects in tragic yet euphoric ways to the mixed blessing of the radically unleashed musical imagination. |
