Critic Reviews of "Franklyn"
Time OutFebruary 27, 2009'Franklyn' has conceptual boldness and visual imagination that set it apart from the pack.
VarietyOctober 22, 2008A clever idea that could have worked as a novella, the urban-fantasy-cum-sci-fier Franklyn doesn't cut it by the bigscreen rulebook.
Urban CinefileNovember 07, 2009Ultimately it doesn't quite work, but along the way it is easy to be somewhat sucked in, especially by Eva Green's suicidal artist and Sam Riley's emotionally shattered dreamer
Times (UK)March 06, 2009Franklyn is wonky and self-defeating: there are lots of gauche moments. Still, it's entertaining, and commendable for its strangeness.
Observer (UK)March 06, 2009Franklyn is puzzling in a way some may think tiresome and others intriguing. Gerald McMorrow, whose first feature this is, has talent, but just as he starts tying up the loose ends, the film unravels.
Daily Express (UK)March 03, 2009If ambition and flair were the only hallmarks of a five-star film then Franklyn would be top of the class.
SFX MagazineMarch 03, 2009Look past the odd shortcoming in the storytelling, and there's a brave movie here, one that's prepared to tackle some weighty issues about religion and obsession.
IGN Movies UKFebruary 27, 2009Marks McMorrow as a director to watch, one unafraid of taking risks and going against the grain of the British film industry. It's not for everyone, but surrender to the limitless ambition and off-kilter tone and it's an engaging 100 minutes.
Empire MagazineFebruary 27, 2009An admirably non-formulaic drama, which manages to reconcile the opposed British film traditions of contemporary, realistic, low-key character drama with eccentric, flamboyant, Gothic fantasy. It certainly marks out McMorrow as a talent to watch.
Film4February 27, 2009McMorrow's ideas may be too damn bold and expansive for Franklyn to succeed on every level, but it's a striking debut from a writer-director unafraid to reach as high as he can.
Times (UK)February 27, 2009It's a convoluted piece of storytelling that repays more on a visual level than on a logical one. But you can't fault its ambition and imagination.
GuardianFebruary 27, 2009He is aiming high. And yet, to use a recondite and specialist critical term, this film is massively up itself.
