Rhys' Piecenew

Enduring Love builds up enormous good will with its lapel-grabbing opening, its canny set-up scenes, and Rhys Ifans’ unnerving performance as a stalker in love. But in focusing on the psychological aspects of the psychological thriller, director Roger Michell asks a great many questions about love and obsession and then has trouble answering them.

Enduring Creepinessnew

The film wants to come from behind and surprise in a way that feels punishing, as though the audience being taught a bitter lesson. The result is creepy and unpleasant. There is hope, however bleak, at the end, but mostly there's a sense of unnecessary devastation.
