Critic Reviews for  Cymbeline 2015 - MDBReviews

Top Reviews By Critics

Peter Sobczynski | RogerEbert.com A conceptually weak and dramatically muddled mess that has acquired a game and good cast and then given them precious little to do.
Full Review

Tirdad Derakhshani | Philadelphia Inquirer    
If too many filmmakers try to amp up the excitement in Shakespeare with movie magic, Almereyda goes to the opposite extreme in Cymbeline.
Full Review

Betsy Sharkey | Los Angeles Times    
A mash-up of social media shortcomings and Shakespearean tragedy that becomes as much a tale of cinematic ambition gone awry as anything the Bard intended.
Full Review

Chris Nashawaty | Entertainment Weekly    
The film has moments of real wit and stylish brutality, but its nods to modernity (motorcycles, iPads, Google) just feel like self-conscious stunts.
Full Review

Manohla Dargis | New York Times    
"Cymbeline" has been branded a tragedy, a tragicomedy and a romance, and Mr. Almereyda embraces all three categories. The movie is by turns grim, grimly amusing and romantic, sometimes at once.
Full Review

Nick Schager | Film Journal International
Shakespeare's Cymbeline is given a distinctly contemporary sheen that almost makes it seem fresh, which is not-unfortunately-the same thing as coherent.
Full Review

Keith Uhlich | AV Club    
Almereyda tackles one of the Bard's lesser-regarded later works, the plot-heavy tragicomedy Cymbeline, and again unearths untold depths.
Full Review

Andrew O'Hehir | Salon.com    
If this willfully peculiar and daring "Cymbeline" isn't to all tastes, it brings back the blood, the thrills and the sense of moral discovery to a long-neglected work.
Full Review


Mike D'Angelo | The Dissolve        
Almereyda's sweeping cuts take material that was already problematic and render it almost nonsensical.
Full Review

Stephanie Zacharek | Village Voice    
It unfolds like a tragedy, gradually shedding all its armor until it winds up, naked and a little crazy, as something of a comedy. But all this madness has a purpose, as Almereyda shows us.
Full Review

Isaac Feldberg | We Got This Covered        
Director Michael Almereyda's ambition is admirable, but his grim and gristly modernization of Cymbeline rings almost entirely false.
Full Review

Chuck Bowen | Slant Magazine
The source material, which is convoluted even by Shakespeare's narratively dexterous standards, is admittedly a tough nut for a filmmaker to crack.
Full Review

Jo-Anne Titmarsh | HeyUGuys
If nothing else, this film made me want to see more Shakespeare and if it has this effect on audiences, then Almereyda is to be commended.
Full Review

Robbie Collin | Daily Telegraph
Perhaps this is what they mean by "problem play". In Michael Almereyda's new adaptation of Cymbeline, one of William Shakespeare's more troublesome works, almost nothing seems to click.
