Enduring Love Reviews
Michell finds a way of filming the balloon accident in such an unnerving manner that it hints at the psychological torrents that will ripple through the narrative from thereon
| Original Score: 3/5 | Jun 3, 2020
The whole film ... is not thrilling or moving; it is interesting, which is fine by me but will not make it a huge success.

If you don't have the range to play anything other than the same sort of comedic role as an over-the-top human oddity, maybe you shouldn't try to ply your trade as a dramatic actor.

There is conviction in Ifans' performance; he's so insistent that Joe returns his love but just can't admit that even Joe starts to wonder if something did pass between them.

Daniel Craig gives a solid performance in the tradition of Hitchcock's wrong men.

'Enduring Love' -- at least until its final 20 minutes -- is considerably more intelligent and less sensationalistic than most thrillers of this type.

The notion that being stalked can lead to a spiritual rebirth is pretty goofy, but Enduring Love is skillful enough to make it seem like a reasonable proposition.

An iconoclastic meditation on human devotion that might as easily be condemning its titular emotion as lauding it.

A fatal lack of character development dooms Enduring Love as little more than a fleeting curiosity.
| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Dec 10, 2004
Wholly absorbing... subtly trapping us in the perspective of a beleaguered protagonist, who himself is trapped in an inchoate state of grief and fantasy.
| Original Score: B+ | Dec 5, 2004
Love is a delicate thing, and identity even more so. Enduring Love breathtakingly tears both asunder to find them anew...it is, in a word, exquisite.

Puts the psychological back into psychological thriller.

The film balances two related themes with insight: the guilt in the aftermath of tragedy and the challenges of a relationship that moves from unwanted to ominous.

Worth the admission price if only for the stunning opening sequence but after that there's little to shout about.

The lack of a really sympathetic or interesting main character makes the film version a bit of an endurance test.
| Original Score: 2/4 | Nov 27, 2004
It's heady stuff, though stretched too far for convenience.
