The Critic (15)
★★★ As a jaundiced reviewer with a dangerous private life, Ian McKellen brings glorious life to this 30s society cosy-crime drama about sour toffs in a dishonest decade. ~ The Guardian.
---
A deliciously dark and sharp-witted thriller, written by Patrick Marber and featuring an all-star British cast including Ian McKellen, Gemma Arterton, Mark Strong, Ben Barnes, Alfred Enoch, Romola Garai and Lesley Manville.

★★★✭ Ian McKellen storms through this fun thriller as an unapologetically opinionated theatre columnist in 1930s' London who takes no prisoners - but finds his own life under review. ~ RTE.
★★★★ Put bluntly, he is a vicious bastard — but irresistible fun. ~ Financial Times.
★★★★ Directed by Anand Tucker with assurance and panache, The Critic is the kind of entertainment, busy with plot, bordering on farce, but shaded with dark motive, that used to be the speciality of Ealing Studios. ~ Sunday Times.
