ryan j 2d Fantastic movie! They don’t make enough smart dramedies like this these days. Excellent performances from both leads, too. See more jesse v 2d A young very very patient artist works for an old British artist that has a rich art collection and listens to him ramble and each other calls out their bluff. Good performances but need action from the characters rather than speak art jargon. See more Brian 4d It was a little bit of a slow start , but then I really enjoyed the movie See more Robin E P 4d Art, like almost everything under the sun, has become something of a "racket" with quality/review/interpretation variations, etc. etc. I enjoyed the spoofiness of this movie very much with the serious undercurrent. Especiallly enjoyed the dig at Warhol. Michaela Coel was stunning and marvelous Ian M always a delight! They played very well together. Loved the ending. See more Jay D 4d Really walked into this just on the strength of Sir Ian McKellen and Michaela Coel. The sheer thought of the two playing opposite each other was an utterly distracting previously unthought of dantasy come true. I truly didnt know anything about the movie other than he was playing a painter and there were unfinished works. My husband thought it was gonna be some kind of hostage situation or something (spoiler alertnot really but) What we got was so much richer, subtler, painfuland joyous. McKellen just chewing up scenery while simultaneously not even seeming to act at all . Meanwhile, Coelunderstated to absolute perfection. You never knew really where she was coming from and the last 10 minutes just sunk you and uplifted youexperiencing it all with her she brought you on that journey. Not sure how many times I can watch this. Sir Ian was in his early 50s when I had just discovered him in my late 20s and has been my favorite actor since. Watching him play a man in his 80s (which he now is) as I enter my 60s this story was one I needed but I fear watching it too much will force me to confront my impending mortality in ways Im not quite ready for yet. See more Martin K 5d Very unique story with incredible acting. Ian McKellen is so "real", as if not acting. Michaela Coel is stunning in appearance and does a great job. Of course, Gunning and Corden were hilarious. Enjoy! See more Read all reviews
