Rating: 2.5/5 -- The solid final 20 minutes of the film demonstrate how strong a director Fiennes can be, but it's a slow, obviously deliberate build up that might test the patience of those who don't have a standing interest in the dancer or of this period in history. Full Review

I am found myself fairly taken in with this just as a [straightforward], good, sensible drama. Full Review

Rating: 3/5 -- The film gives the impression that much of Fiennes' attention went into working with Ivenko on shaping the details of this portrait -- and it is psychologically convincing, whether or not it has much to do with the real man. Full Review

In the last half-hour, at just about the point that you're as sick of Nureyev as his KGB chaperones must have been, the movie takes off irresistibly as a thriller. Full Review

Rating: 7/10 -- The White Crow is a decent film giving light to an artist you might not know and humanizes him along the way. Full Review

Rating: C -- Fiennes' drab biopic of Russian ballet dancer Rudolf Nureyev drains the color from his life, and comes across as cold as a Soviet winter. Full Review

Rating: 3/5 -- The White Crow offers up all these elements of Nureyev - his past, his heat, his vulnerabilities - but all those parts are dancing around each other incongruously rather than as a well-choreographed ensemble piece. Full Review
