Movie Reviews

Movie Boeuf - 9/10 by David N. ButterworthA powerful, authentic, and deeply emotional period piece that clearly communicates that very special affinity between sisters.
Reeling Reviews - 9/10 by Laura Cliffordwould have made a great vehicle for Bette Davis in the 1940s
Compuserve - 8/10 by Harvey S. KartenThe characters are as dull as their city is dismal.
Spirituality and Practice - 8/10 by Frederic and Mary Ann BrussatThis well-realized English film explores two powerful forces: the shattering consequences of adultery and the healing nature of forgiveness.
Seattle Times - 8/10 by Moira MacDonaldThere's a crispness to the performances, and a real sisterly bond between Williams and Bonham Carter, that makes the movie quite affecting -- and at times very funny, in a stiff-upper-lip sort of way.
Ebert & Roeper - 8/10 by Richard RoeperI didn't like this film so much. I'm giving it thumbs down.
Internet Reviews - 8/10 by Steve RhodesA touching movie that makes an indelible impression.
L.A. Weekly - 8/10 by Scott FoundasWhile director Thaddeus O'Sullivan has some interesting visual ideas -- his period London is a heavily aestheticized, matte-painted dreamscape -- he never makes an emotional connection to the material the way he did in his fine Irish gangland drama, “Nothing Personal.”
Los Angeles Times - 7/10 by Kenneth TuranPerhaps The Heart of Me's greatest success is the way it avoids turning any of its characters into villains. They all act badly at times, but we feel for them just the same; they never lose our sympathy. Weepy or not, that's an accomplishment any kind of film can feel proud of.
Orlando Weekly - 7/10 by Steve SchneiderThree stars, for a trio of quality lead performances that survive the relentless card-shuffling of the plot -- and because Ricky Masters is just a great name any way you slice it.
