Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
What you feel, watching Close, is not that you are watching gender being bent into new, absorbing shapes but that you might as well have stayed home and leafed through a book on Magritte.

rotten:
A movie that, like its title character, never quite dares to let itself discover what it really wants to be.

fresh:
Albert is at the heart of it all and we see her through her own prism of vulnerability, resulting in a very human story about the search for love, acceptance and understanding of the self.

fresh:
The film surrounding the performance is not always as strong, but the centre holds, and magnificently so.

rotten:
The grim, grey-hued result is about as far from contemporary drag chic as it's possible to get - appropriate for the subject matter, perhaps, but hardly the stuff of satisfying cinema.
