Variety -
Provides a platform for Sean Connery to deliver a definitive, career-summation performance.

|
Washington Post -
Manages to take the cerebral act of literary creation and make it exciting, sexy even.

Chicago Tribune -
It's rare to see a movie that takes such joy in the power of words, not to create lofty works of art but to effect the simple, necessary translation of what's in one's heart and mind.

|
Boston Globe -
A juicy and gratifying teacher movie (a genre to which I'm partial). The joy in performance shared by Connery and Brown is the big reason.

Miami Herald -
The movie is not without its pleasures. Chief among them is Sean Connery's robust performance.
