Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
Magic is neither eerie nor effective. It is, however, very heavy of hand.

rotten:
A hammed-up version of the old chestnut about the ventriloquist who is 'taken over' by his dummy, clumsily adapted by William Goldman from his own novel.

fresh:
In adapting his own best-seller, William Goldman has opted for an atmospheric thriller, a mood director Richard Attenborough fleshes out to its fullest.
