Review For Caesar Must Die
Prison theatricals are nothing new in the movies, but Caesar Must Die, a quasi-documentary featuring hardened convicts acting out Shakespeare's Julius Caesar, is in a class by itself.Peter Rainer-Christian Science Monitor
Ranks among the most involving adaptations of Shakespeare ever put on screen ...
Kenneth Turan-Los Angeles Times
What works best is what's readily accessible, the startling power of performers who understand the drama all too well.
Joe Morgenstern-Wall Street Journal
The film gets on screen not only the play's bloody, double-dealing, hungry essence, but the redemptive potential of art.
Farran Smith Nehme-New York Post
The Tavianis blur the boundaries between fact and fiction, but they couldn't do it without the full complicity of their actors, or the audience.
Elizabeth Weitzman-New York Daily News
You can only guess what the lines mean to the inmates, who register as atmospheric blanks at best and brutal exotics at worst, even if the tale that they enact with such earnest vigor works because the original tragedy does.
Manohla Dargis-New York Times
The juxtaposition of Shakespearean text and prison cell life is a particularly poignant one.
Tara Brady-Irish Times
It is difficult to understand exactly where documentary ends and fiction begins, but the finale, again in colour, of the triumphant first night of the production can't fail to move.
Derek Malcolm-This is London
It's never anything less than interesting, though I felt it didn't quite fulfil its potential, and the repetition of material at the beginning and end is disconcerting.
Peter Bradshaw-Guardian [UK]
It is uncanny how Italy's film-makers keep failing to nail, or effectively to satirise, their country's strident political shortcomings.
Nigel Andrews-Financial Times
Deeply felt melancholy lingers long after the credits roll.
Glenn Heath Jr.-Little White Lies
Delivers a compelling and considered take on immemorial themes.
Chris Buckle-The Skinny
It's an arresting, playful and moving film ...
Dave Calhoun-Time Out
[It] has plenty of wit and punch, although compared to the best of the medium - Man On Wire, for instance - it sometimes comes off as guileless and clunky.
Patrick Peters-Empire Magazine
[An] inventive, urgent and humane prison drama, in which real-life Mafia and Camorra prisoners act in a version of Julius Caesar.
Tom Dawson-Total Film
If you're looking for an adventurous thought-provoking film, "Caesar Must Die" more than fits the bill.
Cole Smithey-ColeSmithey.com
In just 76 minutes, the Taviani brothers treat us to a deeply affecting adaptation of this ancient play, embedded with even deeper meaning on account of its unconventional stars.
Simon Miraudo-Quickflix
Here's an extraordinary melding of the actualities of modern man with his ancient past. Sadly, humankind hasn't made much progress when it comes to controlling its ambitious and testosterone-tinged impulses. Happily, human frailties make great art.
Brandon Judell-CultureCatch
Paolo and Vittorio Taviani brilliantly merge documentary and fiction in this film about a prison production of Shakespeare's Julius Caesar.
Maria Garcia-Film Journal International
For a movie with such a brisk pace -- it clocks in at just 76 minutes -- "Caesar Must Die" has surprising depth ...
Grant Butler-Oregonian
In Caesar Must Die, the characters are both actor and audience, looking at themselves through the lens of a centuries-old fictionalization of history.
