Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Venus is a fine reminder of the wonders we're presented with every day.
– Tom Long,

fresh:
The best tunes are played on the oldest fiddles, they say, and Peter O'Toole, 74, proves the point in Venus.
– Colin Covert,
Minneapolis Star Tribune,

fresh:
Venus belongs to O'Toole. This is, hands down, my favorite performance of the year, largely because I love the way O'Toole (and the filmmakers) refuse to yield to the all-too-pervasive idea that it's 'icky' for old people to even think about sex.

rotten:
If only [director] Michell's film actually said something about aging, and didn't feel the need to include Grumpy Old Men shtick and bland bossa nova-inflected pop.
– Joshua Rothkopf,
Time Out New York,

fresh:
O'Toole spent so many years being better than the little material that he was offered that it's heartening to see him sprint toward the finish of his career with such a flourish. If this is his curtain call, it's a glorious one.
