The Deep Blue Sea Ratings & Reviews
The New Republic
Stanley Kauffmann
Now a new film of the play appears, adapted and directed by Terence Davies with Rachel Weisz in that stellar [Hester Collyer] role and with Rattigan's work in a freshening treatment.
The New Republic
David Thomson
The movie is an exquisite period piece, slow and dank, and unduly persuaded that it's rendering a classic.
Slate
Dana Stevens
[Weisz'] performance that transforms her from actress to movie star.
Philadelphia City Paper
Sam Adams
Terence Davies doesn't make movies so much as he makes moods, languorous explorations of time and space that coalesce like a cloud of fragrant smoke.
Arizona Republic
Bill Goodykoontz
The best parts of the movie, like the scene with William's mother, involve isolated set pieces in which Weisz interacts with another actor.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
A story of passion and its aftermath; of what happens when an unhappy woman goes chasing after something shiny, only to find how quickly it fades.
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Joe Williams
Davies doesn't provide stylish counterweights to the heavy drama. Any story that starts with a woman writing a suicide note is cheating us of an honest investment in the outcome.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Steven Rea
Weisz gives a heartbreaking performance; her Hester spirals into doom, hungry for the physical pleasures she has found.
NPR
David Edelstein
This is Rachel Weisz's movie. She's as luminous as a Pre-Raphaelite portrait, yet she brings to Hester a high-wire, modern tremulousness...
Chicago Tribune
Michael Phillips
This is an extremely deft job of adaptation.
HollywoodChicago.com
Brian Tallerico
It's not the film it could have been but the sheer skill of the great Rachel Weisz and the great Tom Hiddleston make it a film worth seeing.
Detroit News
Tom Long
It's a time machine of a movie; but who will want to take the trip?
Washington Post
Michael O'Sullivan
Maddeningly oblique and incomplete, despite paying what at times feels like excruciating attention to the minutiae of a dying love affair's final hours.
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
Rachel Weisz - in what has to be the performance of her career, and there have been lots of good ones - plays an intelligent woman in the grip of a lust that's too big to handle or suppress. She can either ride the tiger or be devoured.
Boston Globe
Wesley Morris
It feels current. That's to do with the timelessness of Davies's idea of how lush a film can feel. It's also to do with the modernity of his star.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
The film feels pity for the exhausted city of London. The vast metropolis was the scene of greatness during World War II, but a few years later, it is drab, hungry and without optimism.
Chicago Reader
J. R. Jones
In scene after scene, painful pauses in conversation seem to amplify the incessant ticking of the clock in the room, a subtle reminder that time rolls onward and our brief lives are not to be frittered away.
TheWrap
Alonso Duralde
Director Terence Davies can paint melancholy and misery in as many shades as the Eskimos allegedly have words that mean "snow."
New York Magazine/Vulture
Bilge Ebiri
Even as it settles a bit more comfortably into its story of romantic disillusionment, The Deep Blue Sea is marked by a kind of profound stasis of choice.
Film.com
William Goss
Captures a very delicate sense of romantic decay.
