Movie Reviews of Reversal of Fortune
Movie Review: Neither lead is appealing, but the film works
Summary: 4 Stars
I couldn't stand Ron Silver's cartoonish Dershowitz, and Jeremy Irons as Von Bulow is over the top in smarminess, but the film works well anyway because the script is smart. The sets are all but perfect, too, capturing Newport's absurd opulence and Cambridge's frayed collegiate look. I have no idea if they got the facts straight or not, but I did find this movie captured my attention from start to finish. Maybe I'll read the book now. Sunny von Bulow comes off as an afterthought here, despite the silly from-the-coma voice-overs.Movie Review: Irons is captivating as usual
Summary: 4 Stars
As the (possibly) murderous husband in this film, Jeremy Irons shines in his usual understated manner.
Irons can deliver a line, and a gaze. I think of the scene in which Ron Silver, playing the attorney, leans into the von Bulow car and intones: "you are such a strange man," or some such. Irons gives him a calm but sinister look, pauses, then replies evenly, "oh, you have no idea."
Fine film; don't miss it.
Movie Review: 3.5 stars out of 4
Summary: 4 Stars
The Bottom Line:
A fascinating film that makes innovative choices visa vie its construction and seems to know more about the law than most legal thrillers, Reversal of Fortune would be interesting even if Jeremy Irons wasn't so fantastic as to justify watching the entire film: watch it and be delighted.
Movie Review: Good movie!
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a very good movie especially if you've visited the mansions at Newport Rhode Island. Glenn Close and Jeremy Irons do an excellent job questioning our minds as to whether he did it or not. You be the judge, get this movie, you won't be dissappointed!Movie Review: good film
