Movie Reviews

Oregonian - 9/10 by Marc MohanStraight-faced depictions of cartoonish villainy and an uncompelling protagonist add up to a well-intentioned flop, which probably seemed like a capital idea but ends up being closer to capital punishment.
Detroit News - 9/10 by Tom LongIn the end, "Capital" is just a dark comic sketch of bald-faced greed, with little nuance or real feeling.
Reeling Reviews - 8/10 by Robin Clifford"Capital" gives an intriguing look into the high-level workings of corporate Europe through the eyes of Tourneuil in an effective character study.
Cinemalogue.com - 8/10 by Todd Jorgenson... shows an appropriate contempt for the global financial climate without turning its characters into one-dimensional villains.
Orange County Register - 7/10 by Michael SragowIt's a bit like what The Godfather would have been if it had been set in "The Bank of Evil" from Despicable Me -- and if its antihero were a cipher instead of Michael Corleone.
Paste Magazine - 7/10 by Abby GarnettCapital's chief pleasure is also a huge limitation: in all its merciless hubris, it's smartly, stylishly blank.
Ozus' World Movie Reviews - 7/10 by Dennis SchwartzIt's about a callous bunch of high stakes financial market players who are out to rob the poor to give to the rich.
The Film Stage - 6/10 by Dan MeccaA fast-paced, cynical piece of entertainment that serves as a surprisingly simple criticism of our uneven system of dollars and cents.
Philadelphia Weekly - 6/10 by Craig D. LindseyCosta-Gavras certainly found an intriguing leading man in Elmaleh, with his ice-cold stare that may remind audiences of Steve McQueen at his most penetrating.
Bloomberg News - 6/10 by Greg EvansCosta-Gavras has a good ear for boardroom doubletalk and cutthroat shenanigans, but can't quite decide whether to praise his young prince or bury him.
