Rating: 5/5 --
This is a tragic portrait painted with colors of horror; a study of empathy that tries to put the audience in the mind of a man who is in the process of losing it. [Full review in Portuguese[

Cinema em Cena
Using a role modified for the screen with Hopkins in mind, this direct adaptation offers an arresting showcase for the veteran’s skillset...

Rating: 4/5 --
Childlike vulnerability hasn't been something Hopkins has opened up to show us in a long, long while, but he seems ready for this role, hungry to do it, and you may not be prepared for how deep he goes.

Daily Telegraph (UK)
Hopkins' masterful performance operates on multiple levels, as the audience isn't sure what's "real" or what's been distorted.

Newport This Week (RI)
Rating: 2/4 --
[The Father] leans too strongly into the horror tropes, to the point where it seems the film is less about truly understanding the experience of a dementia patient and more about messing with the audience.

Baltimore Magazine
The camera becomes an extension of his mind's eye. Faces and places mix and match in an ever-shifting reality, where the only constant is the fallibility of memories. The truth exists between what he remembers and what he's forgotten.

Hopkins turns in one of his greatest performances in years playing a man with dementia trying to make sense of time and reality around him as his memory fades.

Product Description:
At 80 years old, Anthony (Anthony Hopkins) finds himself dependent on his daughter Anne (Olivia Colman) for everything. Anne, however, is not planning on staying to take care of him as she wants to move to Paris to be with her boyfriend. Before she does, though, she wants to make sure that her father has someone who will look after him. Anthony detests this and tries his best to scare everyone Anne hires. But soon enough, his brain begins to play tricks on him. Directed by Florian Zeller.
