Movie Reviews

Spirituality and Practice - 9/10 by Frederic and Mary Ann BrussatRegisters strongly on the emotions as a poignant and powerful meditation upon loss.
Newsweek - 8/10 by David AnsenHolland's passionate version may be truer to James. He'd be startled by its earthiness, but he'd recognize these bruised, complex hearts as his own.
The New York Review of Books - 8/10 by Louis MenandIf you are going to have an appealing Townsend you may as well have a distinctive Catherine. When they are sitting side by side playing piano duets, or kissing passionately in the parlor while the doctor is out, they make believable lovers.
USA Today - 8/10 by Mike ClarkThere's isn't much tension here, and, if anything, the film is stolen by Maggie Smith and Judith Ivey as Finney's sisters.
Christian Science Monitor - 8/10 by David SterrittJennifer Jason Leigh shows a surprising flair for modest, introspective moods in Agnieszka Holland's deftly directed adaptation of Henry James's quietly compassionate novel.
Nick's Flick Picks - 6/10 by Nick DavisWashington Square comes closer than did The Heiress to what James originally wrote: an elegy to a woman whom few people notice and no one loves.
Combustible Celluloid - 6/10 by Jeffrey M. AndersonNot even the usually twinkle-eyed Maggie Smith, here playing Catherine's aunt, can buoy the material.
User Review - 10/10 by obscene cThis was a very surprising movie. I enjoyed it a lot. Not predictable like I expected. Totally recommend it :)
User Review - 10/10 by Ruby KI like this movie.The end was great.I liked how it concluded:the bittersweet,so dignified. Catherine Sloper: You treated me badly. I felt it very much. I felt it for years. It made a great change in my life. But I can't talk about it. Morris Townsend: Why didn't you marry then. Levinia tells me there've been chances. Catherine Sloper: I didn't wish to marry. Yes. Morris Townsend: You had nothing to gain. Catherine Sloper: I had nothing to gain. What ever else happened, I did, I did love once. Well, actually. Morris Townsend: Do you hate me? Catherine Sloper: No. But please don't come here again.
