Looking for Richard movie stills
Reviews provided by RottenTomatoes
Susan Stark, Detroit News: Read more
Suzanne O'Connor, New York Times: There are actors' rehearsals and performances, and Mr. Pacino interviews experts, conducts man-on-the-street polls and stages collegial arguments with his cronies. Thus emerges the intricate story of Richard's ambition. Read more
Jonathan Rosenbaum, Chicago Reader: This runs 118 minutes, but it felt like six or seven hours. Read more
Kenneth Turan, Los Angeles Times: While there's no harm in attempting to make Shakespeare more accessible, it's hard to imagine this film exciting anyone except Pacino's fans and those who are fatally charmed by celebrity actors. Read more
James Berardinelli, ReelViews: Looking for Richard is unlike any previous adaptation of the Bard's work, and that's reason enough to give it a shot. Read more
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times: Having chosen to be actors, they know they cannot respect their craft without embracing its greatest writer. Having chosen to be readers and viewers, we cannot do less, and this film is a delightful inspiration. Read more
Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle: The last half-hour drags. Read more
Geoff Andrew, Time Out: Pacino's first film as writer/director is a marvellously intelligent, witty and imaginative exploration of the problems faced by anyone wishing to act in Shakespeare or translate the plays to film. Read more
Lloyd Rose, Washington Post: An astute, funny, loving and occasionally even beautiful documentary about actors preparing to do a play. Read more
