Watch The Paperboy Movie Online No SurveyA sexually and racially charged film noir from Oscar-nominated director Lee Daniels (Precious), The Paperboy takes audiences deep into the backwaters of steamy 1960s South Florida, as investigative reporter Ward Jansen (Matthew McConaughey) and his partner Yardley Acheman (David Oyelowo) chase a sensational, career-making story. With the help of Ward's younger brother Jack (Zac Efron) and sultry death-row groupie Charlotte Bless (Nicole Kidman), the pair tries to prove violent swamp-dweller Hillary Van Wetter (John Cusack) was framed for the murder of a corrupt local sheriff. Based on the provocative bestselling novel by Pete Dexter (Mulholland Falls, Rush), The Paperboy peels back a sleepy small town's decades-old façade of Southern gentility to reveal a quagmire of evil as dark as a Florida bayou. -- (C) Official Site Release Date The Paperboy Oct 5, 2012 Limited | |

Review For The Paperboy | |
"The Paperboy" is one of those rare examples where you might wish the movie was less faithful to the book. Rafer Guzman-Newsday Yes, it's a dizzying stew set to boil. Lisa Kennedy-Denver Post The Paperboy is southern Gothic wallowing in the swamp of low camp. And if the wallowing were deliberate, this might have been hugely funny. Rick Groen-Globe and Mail The Paperboy bears some promise as a good-bad movie, but it unfolds as a bad-bad one. Peter Howell-Toronto Star It's a movie that seems to have a mild form of heatstroke: it's blurry, as if filmed long ago, and feverish, and the story wanders all over the place as if lost in a bayou. When it's over, you want to wipe your brow. Moira MacDonald-Seattle Times The Paperboy is over-the-top every which way you look. Steven Rea-Philadelphia Inquirer The Paperboy is flawed, more deserving of a rubbernecking than a viewing. But it's hard to tear your eyes away. Kate Muir-Times [UK] You certainly couldn't accuse anyone involved in The Paperboy of playing it safe, and for this reason, Lee Daniels' film is one to file under misjudged must-sees. Catherine Bray-Film4 ( ... ) a film that captivates, puzzles and loses its own sense of direction in equal measure Graham Young-Birmingham Mail Judging by her edgier scenes [Nicole] Kidman is clearly uninterested in currying any favour at the multiplex. And all credit to her. Jim Schembri-3AW Wastes an exceptional cast on an incoherent tale ... Philip French-Observer [UK] There is a certain trashy appeal, but in the end it's all too random to really mean anything. Apart from the cast, The Paperboy just doesn't deliver. Alistair Harkness-Scotsman What a cast. What a disappointment. Ben Rawson-Jones-Digital Spy Filmmaker Daniels follows up his acclaimed hit Precious with what might be the trashiest movie in recent memory: a swampy thriller packed with desperate characters hiding grisly secrets. Rich Cline-Contactmusic.com It may yet become a camp classic, if no other kind. David Sexton-This is London The plotting is disjointed, the execution feels incoherent and none of it makes a great deal of sense. Allan Hunter-Daily Express With Precious and The Paperboy, Daniels has confirmed his status as the most emotionally incontinent director of his generation. Donald Clarke-Irish Times It's difficult to know what's going on, and even harder to care. Christopher Tookey-Daily Mail [UK] At least The Paperboy delivers plenty of memorable moments - even if you may wish you hadn't seen many of them. Alex Zane-Sun Online So bad it isn't even good-bad. Nigel Andrews-Financial Times A sleazy, overstuffed and terribly directed mess. But never boring and occasionally jaw-dropping. Ashley Clark-Little White Lies Hot stuff. -Sky Movies Sweaty, sleazy and gloriously trashy, this is a thoroughly enjoyable slice of Southern-fried neo-noir with stylish direction, a delightfully twisted script and a trio of terrific performances from Nicole Kidman, Matthew McConaughey and Zac Efron. Matthew Turner-ViewLondon Daniels probably makes the mistake of putting character and atmosphere ahead of plot. But with a cast like this you can hardly blame him. Andy Lea-Daily Star Missing is any sense of urgency about the murder case it is supposed to be investigating. Also missing is coherence, and any sense that this profane potboiler deserves much more than some disbelieving snorts ... Siobhan Synnot-Scotsman Watch it with Killer Joe for the ultimate sweaty, twisted double-bill. Angie Errigo-Empire Magazine |
