Featured Reviews

ReelViews (James Berardinelli)

"Capote" is the more intellectual of the two films; Infamous is the more emotional. They exist to complement, not eclipse, one another. ...read the complete Infamous movie review at ReelViews (James Berardinelli)

Rolling Stone (Peter Travers)

The film's most pleasing surprise is the beautifully nuanced portrait of Capote's confidante, "To Kill a Mockingbird" author Harper Lee, by Sandra Bullock. You heard me. Bullock gives the film what it otherwise lacks: the ring of truth. ...read the complete Infamous movie review at Rolling Stone (Peter Travers)

Entertainment Insiders (Eric Lurio)

In November of 1959, two ex-cons hunting for money brutally murdered the Clutter family in Western Kansas. This act of barbarism and its aftermath has had a major impact on the history of literature.

Almost exactly a year ago the film "Capote" opened to well-deserved praise, particularly for Philip Seymour Hoffman's performance as Truman Capote, fascinated by the murder of the Clutter family in rural Kansas, getting close to the murderers and...read the complete Infamous (2006) review at Movies 101 (Robert Glatzer)

Tony Medley

How long is 118 minutes? 7,080 seconds and I counted every one of them. It's hard to determine who does the worst job of acting, but there's a long list of candidates, beginning with Toby Jones as Truman Capote. But he's given a run for his money by...read the complete Infamous (2006) review at Tony Medley
