Critic Reviews

To an astonishing degree, O gets the tragic Shakespeare mood, that somber stentorian passion born of hidden slivers of ambition and betrayal.Full Review

Owen Gleiberman
Entertainment Weekly

A good film for most of the way, and then a powerful film at the end, when, in the traditional Shakespearean manner, all of the plot threads come together, the victims are killed, the survivors mourn, and life goes on.Full Review

Roger Ebert
Chicago Sun-Times

Artful and emotionally compelling.Full Review

O has one advantage over "Othello" -- since it's a new movie, not a classic, it has the power to surprise.Full Review

Mick LaSalle
San Francisco Chronicle

Essential to the success it manages is Hartnett's low-key, charismatic performance -- cool, withholding, compelling. The triumph of his insinuating Hugo/Iago is how plausible he is, how he manages to convincingly inject poison in so many minds without seeming to be trying.Full Review
