      The pale, sharp featured Whitehead brings an appropriately feverish intensity to Adam, who looks less like a typical 21st century teenager than Lord Byron with a backpack. ( Read More )
    • Diego Semerene

      The Children Act stages the clumsiness of belated domestic confrontations with the very coldness thats kept its characters from having discussed their emotions for decades and from having had sex for almost a year. ( Read More )
    • Tomris Laffly

      As mature as movies get, the elegantly costumed and designed The Children Act is a welcome getaway from the now fading summers loud fare. ( Read More )
    • Michael Ordoña

      Richard Eyre, whos made outstanding films like Iris and Notes on a Scandal, here fails to engage us. ( Read More )
    • David Ehrlich

      No matter how iffy the story gets, or how clinical Eyres direction becomes, Thompson makes it absolutely heartrending to watch Fionas veneer crack one line at a time. ( Read More )
