Movie Reviews of Proof

Movie Review: Excellent adaptation of the play to the big screen
Summary: 5 Stars

Proof is a great adaptation of the theatrical play to the big screen. The movie feels quite a lot like the play and so the audience is treated to intelligent dialogue and acting. Gwyneth Paltrow's performance is, in my opinion, her personal best while Anthony Hopkins and Jake Gyllenhaal both give solid performances. This is an intelligent movie which delves into the love of a daughter towards her father and how such an obviously real human emotion can never be analytically proved.

Movie Review: Great acting
Summary: 5 Stars

Gwyneth Paltrow is great in Proof. She appears depressed, creative, brilliant, vulnerable, etc. as the genius-level daughter of a brilliant father. This is the best work I've ever seen her do. Better than Shakespeare in Love, the film that won her an Oscar. This role seems like it would be far harder to pull off than most, but Ms. Paltrow's performance is fluid, flawless, committed, and carries a subtle sense of humor throughout. Realistic and inspirational story.

Movie Review: BRILLIANT!
Summary: 5 Stars

There isn't much I can add to the terrific reviews already written. In addition to the excellent acting, directing, and adaptation of a screenplay, this is a truly excellent cautionary tale about leaping to conclusions--including those about one's own merit or lack of same--and the dangers of letting yourself be defined by other people's perceptions, however well-intended. This is one of the few films I have ever seen that I can honestly recommend to anyone.

Movie Review: "Proof" and "Doubt" - (not identical) twin producitons
Summary: 5 Stars

After we saw this movie, my husband and I both agreed that "Proof" and "Doubt" are twin (if not identical) productions, and would make a great theater/film class assignment: examining the themes of both works, how the characters were similar, etc. It's interesting to note, as well, that the title of both works have just five letters. Loved it! Gwyneth, Jake and Hope were insanely fantastic in their strange, riveting, sometimes irritating roles.

Movie Review: very exciting, well made movie
Summary: 5 Stars

There are so many good things you can say about this movie. The acting was excellent. The music really draws you in. It is very well produced, revealing the backstory very gradually as the mysteries of the plot become revealed. I started this movie late at night, intending to only watch part of before going to bed, but found myself unable to tear myself away. If you're looking for an exciting, engaging film, it would be hard to top this one.
