A Room With a View

"Blithely, elegantly funny (...) 'A Room With a View' is full of rich roles, splendidly acted (...) The real star of the film, though, is the very beautiful Helena Bonham Carter" 

"The movie is masterfully designed (...) and shot in soft, natural light (by Tony Pierce-Roberts) -- it's a bath for the eye, an antique collector's dream." 

"Usually, thought and passion are on opposite sides in the movies; this time it's entertaining to find them on the same side (…) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 4)" 

"A masterful example of how to take well-regarded literary source material, render it in a manner that displays the visual markers of middlebrow sophistication (...) and intersperse it with surface-level controversies (…) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)" 

"A thoroughly entertaining screen adaptation (...) distinguished by superb ensemble acting, intelligent writing and stunning design." 

"This is incredibly fresh and arresting film-making: moving and amusing, swooningly romantic and socially ferocious – nothing less than a full-frontal (in every way) assault on your soul." 

"The wit is what makes this film so much more alive than their other shapely but frozen adaptations (...) For all its magnificent looks, it is a film of delightful performances (…) Rating: ★★★★★ (out of 5)" 

"Everything about the production proclaims its class (...) There are longueurs, but the air of Edwardian charm is irresistible (…) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"
