THE CRITIC (15) 101 mins Director: Anand Tucker Starring: Sir Ian McKellen, Gemma Arterton, Mark Strong, Romola Garai, Lesley Manville Synopsis: A deliciously dark and sharp-witted thriller set in 1930s London theatreland. When the most feared and vicious theatre critic in town finds himself suddenly in the crosshairs of the Daily Chronicle's new owner, he strikes a sinister Faustian pact with a struggling actress who is desperate to win his favour. Awards: Reviews: "McKellen, who relishes another devious character to sink his teeth into, devouring every scene, a deliciously caustic turn that will provide him with nothing but the finest notices." GUARDIAN "Vintage London theatreland is lovingly recreated, though, and the McKellen and Arterton show is a hoot." TIMES |
