    Michael Apted opts for a certain dated and mannered appeal with a whiff of nostalgia for more innocent times, which lends added enchantment.
    • 50 Metascore
    • 60 Richard Mowe
    The film wears its heart on its sleeve, but the drama falters when the tone grows over-earnest; additionally, Scott's direction fails to exert a tight grasp on his material.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 80 Richard Mowe
    The deadly sins of envy, lust and salacious gossip in deepest rural England provide the motor for Stephen Frears's black romp, featuring vivacious former Bond girl Gemma Arterton.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 80 Richard Mowe
    This intense and almost operatic Italian family melodrama recalls the best of Douglas Sirk.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 60 Richard Mowe
    The performances are excellent, even if none of the characters are all that likeable or involving.
    • 43 Metascore
    • 60 Richard Mowe
    This film is only for those with strong constitutions and a penchant for painstaking details.
    • 59 Metascore
    • 60 Richard Mowe
    The Thompsons have a tough task to explain all the machinations in the film's first half but once the scene is set it unravels in an entertaining way, jumping forward a year--but always with flashbacks to that infamous dinner party.
    • 88 Metascore
    • 60 Richard Mowe
    Despite the high drama of the financial crisis, this documentary, which is full of talking heads, could have been as dry as a balance sheet. It's quite the reverse: funny, sardonic, investigative and gripping.
