Brideshead Revisited Reviews
Houston Chronicle
Amy Biancolli
What's missing from Goode's performance and from the film as whole is the layer upon layer of accumulated motive -- the gradual evolution of a man's complex desires and even-more-complicated fears.
Miami Herald
Connie Ogle
Thompson, though, is marvelous; with understated precision and grace, she makes every word count. Also excellent is Michael Gambon.
Decent Films
Steven D. Greydanus
It's as if Waugh's story has been filtered through the spiritual blindness of young Charles. The movie sees, but it doesn't understand.
Christianity Today
Alissa Wilkinson
Though a story of the disappearing tradition of aristocracy, Brideshead Revisited is, at its core, a tale of the outworking of God's grace in people's lives.
Arizona Republic
Bill Goodykoontz
If you're in the market for a veddy British drama and miss seeing Emma Thompson in her natural environment, Brideshead Revisited is a worthwhile two-hour meditation on faith (and the lack thereof).
Austin Chronicle
Kimberley Jones
The film, a distinctly secular take on Waugh's religiosity, is far more interested in the battle of blind faith vs. rigid unbelief and its devastating effects.
Salon.com
Louis Bayard
Even clothed in linen and flannel and tweed, the absurdities of Brideshead Revisited can never be entirely hidden.
Christian Science Monitor
Peter Rainer
A great piece of work in a movie.
Wall Street Journal
Joe Morgenstern
If it's a choice between the movie's 135 minutes or the 659 minutes of the miniseries, I'd say it's no choice at all. The shorter version is the one that seems long.
New York Times
A.O. Scott
[A] lazy, complacent film, which takes the novel's name in vain.
Detroit News
Tom Long
This version feels fairly condensed.
USA Today
Claudia Puig
The saga ultimately lacks the emotional wallop of the TV version. But its clever writing, strong performances and sumptuous production design make for a rich experience nonetheless.
Los Angeles Times
Mark Olsen
[Director] Jarrold seems too often to consciously be making an in-quotation-marks classy picture, much like last year's Atonement, in which the costumes and setting are just so, but the human drama gets lost amid the pictorial pleasantries.
New York Post
Kyle Smith
[Feels] like a lot of other costume dramas. The phrase Brideshead Regurgitated creeps into mind.
New York Daily News
Joe Neumaier
Gauzy and unfocused. It suffers from too many rooms and not enough view.
Ebert & Roeper
Richard Roeper
Yes, it's a compressed version, but I found it very enjoyable.
San Francisco Chronicle
David Wiegand
A very noble movie, which makes it interesting at times, but not often enough.
