Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
In Oliver Twist, it's the viewer who is punished.
– Roger Moore,
Orlando Sentinel,
30 Sep 2005
fresh:
Poignant and primal, Roman Polanski's splendid adaptation of the Charles Dickens classic pricks the heart and the conscience.
– Carrie Rickey,
Philadelphia Inquirer,
30 Sep 2005
fresh:
A grounded and unusually matter-of-fact adaptation.
– Mick LaSalle,
San Francisco Chronicle,
30 Sep 2005
rotten:
Great expectations are unavoidable when Roman Polanski takes on a Charles Dickens classic. Alas, his version of Oliver Twist fails to live up to them.
– John Hartl,
Seattle Times,
30 Sep 2005
rotten:
It's noble, high-minded and safe, and I can't help thinking that I would have preferred an audacious but honest failure.
