Lotus may love pretty things, but he doesn’t hold back on the gore.

~ Jennie Kermode -

With so much going on the only shame is that at this length the pirouettes in various directions are so brief, giving us a taste for ideas that are begging to be dug into further.

~ Amber Wilkinson -

While the film is generally a delight, the increasingly surreal third act can be hard to track.

~ Antoni Konieczny -

A patient, affecting study of human connection in unusual circumstances

~ Antoni Konieczny -

The irreverent score, the gothic art direction, and Mario Tosi’s kaleidoscopic, slithering cinematography coalesce into something mesmeric.

~ Antoni Konieczny -

Like its subject, the film is a fusion of styles.

~ Jennie Kermode -

Fiennes is lean in look and in performance, bringing an intensity that proves compelling.

~ Amber Wilkinson -

An overflowing life is presented to us through archival interviews and film clips, and most revealingly through on-camera insights from O’Brien herself.

~ Anne-Katrin Titze -

The anxious impact of the airport is also brought home to us by the crowded nature of the animation, its expressionist rendering emphasising the strangeness of this environment.

~ Amber Wilkinson -

For better or worse, Antonioni’s got his master stylist hat on here, even if it sometimes obscures his vision.

~ Jennie Kermode -

Anno, while acknowledging the history through the use of archive and via her interviewees, firmly accentuates the positives and the strides that have been made.

~ Amber Wilkinson -

There’s no room here for the simple morality of the average horror film.

~ Jennie Kermode -

Though parts of the film are repetitive and others don’t quite knit together, there are some real gems hidden in there.

~ Jennie Kermode -

~ Jennie Kermode -

Ultimately. McClarnon’s biggest advantage lies in his cast.

~ Jennie Kermode -

Pure joy from start to finish.

~ Anton Bitel -

Fiennes is lean in look and in performance, bringing an intensity that proves compelling.

Coogan is well cast in this tricky role, moving easily from humour to heartbreak..

~ Jennie Kermode -

I Am Love is social melodrama in the best traditions of Italian cinema.

~ Chris -

Anime at its very finest - lightning paced, visually stunning, feverishly creative and overrun by a logic all its own.

~ Anton Bitel -

The action is pacy but that doesn’t mean Courvoisier skims the surface.

~ Amber Wilkinson -

An overflowing life is presented to us through archival interviews and film clips, and most revealingly through on-camera insights from O’Brien herself.

~ Anne-Katrin Titze -

Taken as a straightforward comic horror movie, this feels too derivative and clichéd. Taken as homage or pastiche, it's not nearly funny, knowing or camp enough.

Every one of the Lilliputian characters is so bland and personality-free that they could have been played by the creepy CG Jeff Bridges from TRON: Legacy.
