The Sense of an Ending Ratings & Reviews
Austin Chronicle
Kimberley Jones
The book's mysteries and bleak epiphanies prove too subtle for the film to adapt with any deep impact.
San Diego Reader
Matthew Lickona
Director Ritesh Batra's adaptation of Julian Barnes's my-theme-is-memory novel serves as a grand showcase for star Jim Broadbent as a sour old soul who is ever so gently forced to reckon with his past.
Detroit News
Adam Graham
Broadbent, so often a supporting player, is a treat in the lead role, soft and mournful, but with a youthful gleam in his eye.
Washington Post
Ann Hornaday
It's a cozy movie with a decidedly un-cozy message - about the perils of resuscitating our pasts, and the even bigger risk of leaving them be.
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Calvin Wilson
"The Sense of an Ending" does not provide easy answers. But it raises intriguing questions.
Arizona Republic
Bill Goodykoontz
Payne's screenplay doesn't always live up to Broadbent's talents. But the actor never disappoints, and "The Sense of an Ending" is so much better as a result.
Seattle Times
Moira MacDonald
Barnes' novel, winner of the 2011 Man Booker Prize, is elevated in a way the movie can't reach; it has a jewellike perfection to it, while the movie's simply quite good.
Observer
Rex Reed
An exemplary work about the way we select and file our memories, conveniently editing what we choose to forget.
Vox
Alissa Wilkinson
It posits that the best thing we can do is love each other and try to do our best, and apologize when we don't. Packaged into a story told sensitively, that's a lesson worth remembering.
Vanity Fair
Richard Lawson
Director Ritesh Batra (best known for The Lunchbox) does a remarkable job of making the movie's mystery seem much more transgressive than it is, and he is aided by an outstanding performance from Jim Broadbent.
Christian Science Monitor
Peter Rainer
Without an actor of Broadbent's poise and humor, The Sense of an Ending - which, I must add, is appropriately also the title of a famous work of literary criticism by Frank Kermode about theories of fiction - would be a bit too fusty.
New York Magazine/Vulture
David Edelstein
You only spoon-feed an audience that way when you don't trust them - or don't trust your ability to connect with them on a deeper level. In this case, it's probably both.
RogerEbert.com
Christy Lemire
A film that's well-acted but tastefully restrained to a fault, with gentle humor about aging and a central mystery that isn't all that engaging.
Vanity Fair
Jordan Hoffman
May just be the most British movie ever made.
Associated Press
Jocelyn Noveck
Gradually, we witness the puzzle's pieces falling into place. But not TOO neatly, thankfully.
NPR
Ella Taylor
If The Sense of an Ending is an object lesson in the heedless cruelty of the young, it's also, in Broadbent's versatile hands, a moving account of the inner turmoil of a man with little time left to right a wrong.
Los Angeles Times
Justin Chang
The movie is ultimately Broadbent's showcase, and he shoulders the dramatic burden with sly, curmudgeonly expertise.
New York Times
Glenn Kenny
The film totters into a redemptive sentimentality that wouldn't even play if it were made to seem more earned.
AV Club
Mike D'Angelo
It takes a while to recognize that The Sense Of An Ending is essentially a portrait of a jerk.
Slant Magazine
Diego Semerene
RRitesh Batra's The Sense of an Ending is a tale of white nostalgia that should have found its footing on dramatic grounds.
