While the film fails to live up to its namesake, it's a starry, solid account of a literary icon and the man who brought him to the world.

3 stars out of 4 -- Perkins is played with reserve, hidden warmth, and scrupulous intelligence by Colin Firth...

Laura Linney, Guy Pearce, and Dominic West co-star in director Michael Grandage's debut feature film.
