El escritor Ratings & Reviews
- LORCAN KILROY27 de agosto de 2025This is one of the best movies ever made.On a par with Citizen Kane or Lawrence of Arabia or On The Waterfront. Perfect casting, acting, direction, art design, script/story. Polanski's under appreciated masterpiece.
- Elliott Gabriel24 de enero de 2026A fine example of Polanski's filmmaking genius -- excellent performances by McGregor and Brosnan, what an ending!
- Mairi Krausse17 de noviembre de 2025Very tense and somewhat confusing movie, but a dramatic ending!
- manderso9 de octubre de 2025Book was pretty good. This was as good, if not better. This trimmed down the fat considerably and I enjoyed the ending more than the books. Also great casting.
- Luke MacLennan4 de octubre de 2025The Ghost Writer is an uneventful movie about a man revising a rather tedious manuscript. He spends most of the movie worrying about grammar errors and chapter structures made by his predecessor. This is a good movie for people who think semi colons are high drama. Luckily I am such a person. The third act includes a compelling argument between our hero, the ghost writer, and the villain, his client's wife. The row between this about whether or not its a good idea to use incomplete sentences for dramatic effect. Riveting stuff. I rate this movie a 4 out of 5 stars. Frankly the subplot about the CIA and terrorism was a bit of a bore. The film needed less politics and more prose.
- George Bananza27 de septiembre de 2025James Bond writes a memoir with the help of a nosy ghost.
- Stairwaytothestars2 de agosto de 2025The Ghost Writer has nothing on the book that it's meant to be writing, and has empty pages flying high until it hits the ground.The movie's slow pace makes its billing as a thriller deceiving. A slog from Roman Polanski's Nog!
- SoranIsOn14 de noviembre de 2024Not sure why there's so many glowing reviews of this movie. It's a bit of a slog, not a huge sense of stakes and the finale is quite underwhelming.
