Movie Reviews

Film Journal International - 9/10 by Wendy WeinsteinThe new film from James Ivory is leisurely paced, lacking in narrative drive perhaps, but rich in nuance, dialogue and atmosphere. Marvelous performances by Anthony Hopkins, Laura Linney and Charlotte Gainsbourg.
AV Club - 9/10 by Tasha RobinsonIt’s a frustratingly oblique film where few events connect, and fewer moments matter.
sbs.com.au - 9/10 by Don GrovesIvory without Merchant films a bloodless, dreary tale
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) - 8/10 by Ken HankeIt's gorgeous to look at. It has literate, well-spoken people. It has marvelously sensitive performances from Hopkins and Sanada.
Detroit News - 8/10 by Tom LongSlow, dull and wielding absolutely no emotional impact despite a fine cast.
Philadelphia Inquirer - 8/10 by Tirdad DerakhshaniA movie that feels as if it should have been a masterpiece. As it is, it's flawed, uneven work but deserves careful viewing.
Spirituality and Practice - 8/10 by Frederic and Mary Ann BrussatA sophisticated drama about love and literary matters skillfully and sensitively directed by James Ivory.
St. Paul Pioneer Press - 8/10 by Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)City is a talky melodrama, and some of the dialogue is oddly stiff. But it's a pleasure to watch great actors dig into this literary material, and the movie looks sunny and spectacular.
SSG Syndicate - 8/10 by Susan GrangerElegant, enthralling journey into self-discovery - with James Ivory continuing the richly refined, tantalizing, exotic Merchant/Ivory storytelling tradition.
New York Times - 7/10 by Stephen HoldenBesides Ms. Linney’s excellent performance and Mr. Hopkins’s good one, the best things about the movie are its sensuous cinematography by Javier Aguirresarobe (“Talk to Her,” “Vicky Cristina Barcelona”) and a gorgeous soundtrack.
