Namrata Joshi Outlook A bizarre, farcical, political allegory-cum-thriller. Rated: 3/4 Jan 10, 2019 Full Review Zadie Smith Daily Telegraph (UK) In the face of this film something adolescent in me surged to the surface and I mean that as a great compliment: adolescence is a state I hold in high regard. Jan 16, 2018 Full Review Victoria Segal New Statesman By leaping into fantasy and heading for its own version of a happy ending with all guns blazing, however, it blows the competition - not to mention the Houses of Parliament - out of the water. Sep 26, 2017 Full Review Sean Axmaker Stream on Demand [Alan] Moore wrote the novel as a commentary on Thatcher's England and the film retains the London setting, but it only takes a few key phrases to echo the post-9/11 era and the rhetoric of the current American administration. Aug 19, 2023 Full Review Erick Estrada Cinegarage Beyond being interesting, the film is purposeful... [Full review in Spanish] Dec 21, 2022 Full Review Keith Garlington Keith & the Movies There is a good message hidden somewhere under the clunky and peremptory politics, but I lost my grasp of it halfway through. Rated: 2/5 Aug 21, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews

Bob B Extremely stylish, and more relevant than ever. My main criticism would be that a lot of stuff happens off screen. Still, highly recommended. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 08/11/24 Full Review Mark B Ironic this was made so long ago because this movie is incredibly telling to today. This is my top 3 movies of all time so far. Highly recommend! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/04/24 Full Review Gnr E What a great film! You should watch this Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/30/24 Full Review Geke g This should be recommended for everyone Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/26/24 Full Review Simone C I am still convinced too many did not understand what this absolute masterpiece was about. Hugo Weaving was fantastic, impeccable. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/21/24 Full Review Aender S Quite fitting nowadays, times where the extreme right is on the rise nearly everywhere on the planet. But my heart bleeds seeing iconic buildings blown up in my favourite metropole. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 06/15/24 Full Review Read all reviews
