The result just falls flat.

| Original Score: C+ | Sep 9, 2017

The Duel drops us into a pool of languid provincial life ( ... ) Kosashvili gets the delicate falling ending of short fiction that is so hard to achieve on screen.

| Nov 13, 2013

David (Gosling) finds potential salvation in Katie (Kirsten Dunst), a free spirit so saintlike that she verges on caricature.

| Jun 20, 2013

There's a fascinating story here for a bolder filmmaker, but after so much meandering it's a relief that All Good Things must come to an end.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jan 31, 2011

Director Andrew Jarecki, who made his name with the documentary Capturing the Friedmans, is less successful at limning family dysfunctionality in the fictional mode.

| Original Score: C | Jan 3, 2011

It also feels like one man's attempt to try another in the court of cinema, or perhaps correct the course of justice itself.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jan 3, 2011

The unsolved crime turns out to be less mysterious than the mind of the killer, nervily portrayed by Gosling as not evil but unaccountably empty.

| Dec 30, 2010

Gosling and co-stars Kirsten Dunst and Frank Langella don't do anything wrong here but the movie is such a mash-up of tones, fiction, and reality that it never comes together into anything coherent.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Dec 23, 2010

Kirsten Dunst is so good here as a woman at a loss to understand who her husband really is, and what the true nature of his family involves.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Dec 23, 2010

As excellent as Gosling is - and the actor conveys the stillness of the man as well as the voices screaming in his head - Dunst matches him stride for stride.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Dec 22, 2010

It's a strange, thrilling tale begrimed by bad memories, by bad deeds.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Dec 17, 2010

Dunst is not the only person doing quality work in "All Good Things," but she is the only one worth watching.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Dec 16, 2010

You watch it wanting to scurry off to read accounts of the real thing, rather than being caught up in the filmmaking.

Full Review | Original Score: 2.5/4 | Dec 16, 2010

As absorbing and detailed as "All Good Things" is, it never manages to levitate beyond tawdry movie-of-the-week voyeurism.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Dec 10, 2010

The script draws insistently obvious psychological connections.

| Dec 9, 2010

Gosling is given the barest blueprint of a life gone terribly wrong and the actor struggles to make something out of nothing, though he does manage to give the older David an aura of weirdness that is downright creepy.

| Dec 9, 2010

A soap opera that stands at a distance from its characters (that distance being the length of a lawyer's briefcase)

| Original Score: C | Dec 6, 2010

There's plenty of information on what (might have) happened, but not much thought given to why.

| Original Score: 4.2/10 | Dec 3, 2010

It's a pretty picture or would be if the ominous music and camera position didn't seem directed at the man portentously lurking in the background.

Full Review | Dec 3, 2010

Jarecki, the wealthy co-founder of Moviefone who directed the acclaimed documentary "Capturing the Friedmans," here presents another memorable portrait of a dysfunctional family over three decades.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Dec 3, 2010
