Anna Karenina Movie Review | |
| It's a half-success -- a baldly conceptual response to the Leo Tolstoy novel, with a heavy theatrical framework placed around the narrative of girl meets boy, followed by girl meets train. Michael Phillips-Chicago Tribune In this adaptation, director Joe Wright, plus screenwriter Tom Stoppard, are determined to tame the untameable. And they do. Rick Groen-Globe and Mail "Anna Karenina," lush as it is, fails to strike a fully human chord. Tom Long-Detroit News The very picture of noble failure, it's a bright red heart without a beat. Peter Howell-Toronto Star The metaphorical force of this conceit-insisting on the artifice of the social world that frowns on rapture-is not hard to grasp, but its frailty unsettles some of the actors. Anthony Lane-New Yorker Thank goodness for Domhnall Gleeson's gentle turn as Oblonsky's friend Levin. The ginger-haired landowner is the movie's warmest figure. Lisa Kennedy-Denver Post Maybe Wright and Stoppard have not given us a great Anna Karenina. .. this movie is too derivative and flashy for that, but they have connected the romantic and philosophical poles...The heart wants what it wants, and will destroy itself to have it. Philip Martin-Arkansas Democrat-Gazette The film does not do even minimal justice to the themes informing the tragedy. Dan Jardine-Cinemania A whirlwind affair composed of dazzling set pieces and a driving narrative. Wesley Lovell-Cinema Sight Tolstoy's novel rendered in exquisite Faberge egg form. Catherine Bray-Film4 While there are suitably glorious elements, there's also a frankly bizarre and much-debated aspect added by playwright Tom Stoppard, so that the whole thing is full of 'Brechtian Alienation Devices' and narrative-splintering tricks. David 'Mad Dog' Bradley-Rip It Up It's easy to conclude that this Anna Karenina is a superficial portrait of a superficial society, but that would be to dismiss how emotionally powerful it is in key moments. Rima Sabina Aouf-Concrete Playground There have been countless film and tv versions of Russian author Leo Tolstoy's classic high society love story. But none have been captured so beautifully and boldly as this Anna Karenina. Brian Henry Martin-UTV a visually unique story world, bold and beautiful, and dramatically fused with passion. Yet it's also a limited space that remains prisoner to its self-conscious theatrical structures. Simon Weaving-Screenwize The meandering Russian tale of forbidden aristocratic love - Knightley's character spurns her stiff, high-ranking husband, played by Jude Law for military man Aaron Taylor-Johnson - fails to ignite. Phil Villarreal-OK! Magazine A sumptuous cinematic feast! Kam Williams-NewsBlaze Leo Tolstoy's classic tale of doomed romance and the emotionally stifling lives of Russian aristocrats gets an ornate, inert reworking...the congested setting makes much of the film look like a blur of costumes and set dressing. Jim Schembri-3AW Between the screenplay by playwright Tom Stoppard and the direction of Joe Wright, Anna Karenina is a stylistically fascinating film. Tim Martain-The Mercury Trying to one-up Tolstoy was always going to be a bad idea, though I wouldn't object to seeing a Bond movie, or Les Miserables, staged in the same way. Jake Wilson-The Age (Australia) Joe Wright uses the theatre and has the actors taking part in a stage production which then moves out into the real world. I think that's done beautifully. David Stratton-At the Movies (Australia) Well, Joe Wright has done it. His ANNA KARENINA is a triumph. Margaret Pomeranz-At the Movies (Australia) Wright's staged version tries desperately to gain one's attention (which it does) and engage one's affection (which it doesn't). Ed Gibbs-The Sun Herald Wright's edgy, bravura approach actually enhances the moral themes and the social context, illuminating the story in a fresh, contemporary light. This is cinema Andrew L. Urban-Urban Cinefile Wright's vision in re-imagining this classic tale is conceptually brilliant, with a perpetual sense of motion... a visual and emotional statement Louise Keller-Urban Cinefile Like its central character, this is beautiful and brave even if it fails to fully realise its potential. Amber Wilkinson-Eye for Film Anna Karenina plays like the ultimate CliffsNotes, which is both testament to Stoppard's exceptional adaptation and abridgement of Tolstoy's novel and acknowledgment of the film's somewhat superficial center.
