Critic Reviews of "Mad to Be Normal"
Hollywood ReporterApril 03, 2017Mad to Be Normal boils a fascinating subject down into a slightly clunky, simplistic bio-drama.
Time OutApril 03, 2017Tennant's performance is strong, and he gives energy to a script that jolts in different directions looking for focus.
Spirituality and PracticeMay 04, 2018A thought provoking biopicture focusing on the countercultural life and work of the controversial Scottish psychiatrist R. D. Laing.
The Mail on Sunday (UK)October 11, 2017It's fascinating and particularly well cast but, despite Tennant's watchable efforts, the decision to concentrate on the Kingsley Hall years rather than more of Laing's life proves a frustrating one.
Sunday Times (UK)April 10, 2017David Tennant [plays the role] with conviction and a nice Glaswegian drawl, but the film is a dodgy business that makes things up -- including a pregnant girlfriend (Elisabeth Moss) -- for no good reason.
Observer (UK)April 09, 2017There's plenty of jazzy paisley shirts, flamboyant velvet suits and on-the-nose music cues to denote its psychedelic 1960s setting, but these elements do little to soften Laing's eye-raisingly invasive and possibly inappropriate approach to his patients.
The Arts DeskApril 07, 2017Mad to be Normal's pieces don't quite fit, but like Laing himself, it's never boring.
GuardianApril 07, 2017David Tennant is on pugnacious, mercurial and beady-eyed form in this very interesting and absorbing film.
Radio TimesApril 06, 2017Tennant is as watchable as ever, resplendent in migraine-inducing psychedelic shirts, walking a fine line between radical visionary and arrogant chancer.
Daily Express (UK)April 06, 2017Tennant is so commanding you can't tear your eyes away from him.
Total FilmApril 06, 2017In this touchingly funny, quietly heartbreaking biopic, David Tennant excels as the complex and flawed Laing.
