Leave your thoughts about Prospero's Books.
| Filmcritic.comChristopher NullGielgud's voice has the ability to put you right to sleep with its bass and monotone timbre. The good news is that when you wake up, you won't have missed a thing. |
| rec.arts.movies.reviewsTed PriggeIt's not concerned with anything but being hypnotic and using film's plastic elements to its extremes, or at least as far as Greenaway can take it. |
| Rolling StonePeter TraversGreenaway bombards you with images, with no regard for the average attention span. Is he a genius or a fake? Debating that question is almost as stimulating as watching a Greenaway film. |
| VarietyVariety StaffThe product of a feverish, overflowing imagination, this almost impossibly dense take on The Tempest displays both the director's audacious brilliance and lewd extravagance at full tilt. |
| Time OutGeoff AndrewTo some degree, the relentless proliferation of ideas smothers the dramatic highs and lows, but this is a minor quibble compared to the sheer ambition and audacity of the overall conception. |
| rec.arts.movies.reviewsMark R. LeeperThis is a fantasy film that does a great deal that is new but one I cannot recommend without strong reservations. |
| Deseret News (Salt Lake City)Chris Hicks... quite pretentious and much ado about nothing. |
| User ReviewDemonic NI'm just testing the review system so I'm not gonna write something long just yet. But this movie is one of my favorites. Naysayers beware. |
| User ReviewBryan WOnly a genius could say "Bo's'n" 14 times, every one different, every one meaningful. And wasn't Michael Clark amazing? |
| User ReviewNalle Myou don't need to understand it - just watch it! |
