Here are review links for this film submitted by our members:
- Alex Bentley @ CultureMap Dallas
- Excerpt: Anemone serves as a great re-introduction to perhaps the finest actor of our time, but even if that’s good enough to get Daniel Day-Lewis yet another Oscar nomination, it doesn’t make for a memorable film overall. Ronan Day-Lewis demonstrates some impressive skills, abilities that will hopefully make his second film even better.
- Laura Clifford @ Reeling Reviews
- Excerpt: one of those slow burners, a movie that teases out just how its characters are connected and what has befallen them to create present rifts, but it doesn’t exactly say anything new and the film’s catalyst, Brian, is the least well drawn character.
- Matt Oakes @ Silver Screen Riot
- Excerpt: It takes its sweet, brooding time, but ‘Anemone‘ eventually lands somewhere potent. Daniel Day-Lewis, of course, makes the journey worthwhile, proving again why he’s widely considered the GOAT.
- [New] | Nuno Reis @ Antestreia [Portuguese]
- Excerpt: É um filme com ambição e que tinha os ingredientes para ser bom. Mas Ronan acusou a idade e inexperiência e deixou-se deslumbrar pelo que podia fazer em vez de se focar no que tinha de fazer.
- [New] | Sebastian Zavala @ Cinencuentro.com [Spanish]
- Excerpt: The acting is sublime, from Day-Lewis to Sean Bean and Samantha Morton. But overall, the film is completely conventional and predictable, telling us little about trauma, parent-child relationships, and guilt.
