Quick review

The good: Director Phillip Noyce has a proven record in intelligent political thrillers, Luke takes another step towards the Hollywood A-list, Chamusso’s life story was made for the cinema
The bad: We learn nothing new about the brutal apartheid regime, Robbins’ pantomime villain performance, the ending fizzles out with a whimper rather than the expected bang
Verdict: What we have ended up with is a worthy but dull spectacle
You say: No reader reviews yet - be the first.
