98% Rotten Tomatoes

"[It] was written specifically with Hopkins in mind, right down to Anthony's birthdate, and the actor offers the perfect blend of vulnerability and recalcitrance in the role."
★★★★★ Amber Wilkinson, Times (UK)

"Childlike vulnerability hasn't been something Hopkins has opened up to show us in a long, long while, but he seems ready for this role, hungry to do it, and you may not be prepared for how deep he goes."
★★★★ Tim Robey, Daily Telegraph

"The final scenes of the movie are among the most heartbreakingly vulnerable of Hopkins' whole career. You can scarcely believe it's him. Which is probably the point."
- A.A. Dowd, AV Club
