The Hollywood Reporter -
Superbly made and winningly acted by Brad Pitt in his most impressive outing to date.

New York Post -
It takes a world-class storyteller and a great yarn to rivet your attention for nearly three hours. This very classy, old-school movie - employing cutting-edge technology that will make your eyes pop - did it for me.

Entertainment Weekly -
A curious case indeed: an extravagantly ambitious movie that's easy to admire but a challenge to love.
|
|
Newsweek -
Lyrical, original, misshapen and deeply felt, this is one flawed beauty of a movie.

ReelViews -
There's no denying the film's power of compulsion and the sense that, when it's all over, it means something. Most viewers will be entertained and moved, and some will find their intellect aroused.
