JoeT.Aug 27, 20057This is quite a good movie. Despite being dominated by gloom, it retains a positive moral centre which keeps it enjoyable and heartening. It's perhaps a little too long also and it does tire a little towards the end, but it remains a very good film nonetheless.

FrankS.Aug 30, 20058This is an excellent film. Many critics have been disappointed with it in comparison with the book but when viewed as a film in its own right it is an excellent movie.

NedD.Sep 14, 20013Joyless slog of a film. Parker got all of the disease, rot, depression, sludge and grime correct, but forgot to include what everyone liked about the book: the heart.

70Dramatic, massive in scale, at times very moving. And yet, somehow, it comes up short in terms of essential poetry.

75The question is not whether the movie exactly duplicates the experience of the book, but whether the movie stands on its own. Angela's Ashes clearly does.

75It really gets gloomy.
