Review For A Late Quartet
The result is a perfectly serviceable, well acted melodrama - but why so serious? Tom Huddleston-Time Out The screenplay by Seth Grossman and Israeli-American director Yaron Zilberman is old-fashioned and melodramatic but stirring in its portrait of people struggling with individual egos to produce something nobler than themselves. Liam Lacey-Globe and Mail [It] may not sound like a scintillatingly good time at the movies, but actually it is. Bruce Demara-Toronto Star The outstanding ensemble cast keeps the story - and its accompanying emotional heft - from becoming overly baroque. Claudia Puig-USA Today Yes, A Late Quartet is disappointing. But it's also pretty bad. James Berardinelli-ReelViews For a film that relies so heavily on the lasting power of a classical master, A Late Quartet never really converts any viewers to his church. Connie Ogle-Miami Herald Constantly engaging. David Parkinson-Radio Times One might expect a film set in the high culture world of classical music to come up with a more sophisticated metaphor for the insecurities of a violinist than having him worry about always playing second fiddle in life. Alistair Harkness-Scotsman A Late Quartet is visually and musically rich. But above all there are the performances, individually and as an ensemble, and they're pitch perfect. Philip French-Observer [UK] Impressive, superior drama. Steve Newall-Flicks.co.nz While this film has some bracingly strong observations on the nature of long-term professional and personal relationships, it also feels somewhat theatrical in the way its story develops. Rich Cline-Contactmusic.com It is not flawless but it makes you watch, and listen, closely throughout. Derek Malcolm-This is London It isn't great art, but it is patterned after great art, and there are worse ways to make a film than that. Robbie Collin-Daily Telegraph The film offers first-rate, mostly middle-aged actors in an intelligent screenplay that's decently crafted, covers interesting but unfamiliar ground and has a worthwhile central idea. Christopher Tookey-Daily Mail [UK] [L]ays on [its] metaphor a little too thickly, [but] all is preforgiven... by the sheer joy of getting to watch Christopher Walken, Catherine Keener, and Philip Seymour Hoffman rattle around one another... MaryAnn Johanson-Flick Filosopher Wants to be Bergman, ends up more like a burgundy-hued Sunset Beach. David Jenkins-Little White Lies The picture's really about the trials and joys of performing for a living so it's no surprise that it has attracted such a fine cast, nor that its principal virtue lies in the acting. Henry Fitzherbert-Daily Express A movie with clarity and grownup complexity. Peter Bradshaw-Guardian [UK] Insightful and incandescent, this is a film for both music lovers and movie lovers. Nigel Andrews-Financial Times This skilfully constructed, beautifully performed drama will satisfy audiences looking for smart, intelligent filmmaking. Rob Daniel-Sky Movies Engaging drama, enlivened by a trio of terrific performances from Hoffman, Keener and Walken, though the script occasionally feels a little contrived. Matthew Turner-ViewLondon A pathos-laden chamber piece poignantly played by an ensemble of actors at the peak of their powers. Rebecca Davies-Film4 It's a shame that director Yaron Zilberman feels the need to raise the dramatic stakes so implausibly high, as the actors really are excellent - and the music is sublime. Jason Best-Movie Talk It's a film dripping with Zilberman's passion for classical music and the way it touches the emotions, and because the actors feel it too, you can forgive any moments of discord. Stella Papamichael-Digital Spy It's easy to dismiss Zilberman's film as a bit soapy and self-conscious, but I enjoyed the script's bookish digressions ... Siobhan Synnot-Scotsman
