Review of Big Eyes (2014)

By David Stratton (799) for The Australian (781) on 27 Mar 2015

Review of Big Eyes (2014)

By Simon Weaving (195) for Screenwize (216) on 24 Mar 2015

Athough this is not an entirely successful change of pace for director Tim Burton, there's enough in the story to make his version of events…

Review of Big Eyes (2014)

By Tom Glasson (221) for Concrete Playground (635) on 23 Mar 2015

Burton has crafted one of his most understated films; a fascinating study into 1950s sexual politics and art-world deceit…

Review of Big Eyes (2014)

By Jim Schembri (1,298) for 3AW (1,025) on 20 Mar 2015

Review of Big Eyes (2014)

By Tim Martain (275) for The Mercury (275) on 19 Mar 2015

The score by Danny Elfman makes it sound a little too much like a romantic comedy at times but Big Eyes is a smart flick with a lot to say…

Review of Big Eyes (2014)

By Andrew L. Urban (972) for Urban Cinefile (2,850) on 14 Mar 2015

It's fascinating to discover that an item of what is essentially pop culture with which one was familiar some years ago has such a colourful history…

Review of Big Eyes (2014)

By Bruce Bennett (577) for Spectrum (St. George, Utah) (575) on 14 Mar 2015

A little film with giant performances by Adams and Waltz…

Review of Big Eyes (2014)

By Louise Keller (804) for Urban Cinefile (2,850) on 14 Mar 2015

A lie, compliance and the windows to the soul are the elements of this extraordinary true story in which male domination and female repression…

Review of Big Eyes (2014)

By Michael Nordine (446) for OZY (8) on 10 Feb 2015

Perhaps the worst insult that can be lobbed at Tim Burton's Big Eyes is that it bears little sign of actually having been directed by Tim Burton…

Review of Big Eyes (2014)

By John Beifuss (1,947) for Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN) (1,944) on 12 Jan 2015

In the unlikely and quintessentially American true story of Margaret and Walter Keane, Burton has found a way to interrogate his own career and art…

Review of Big Eyes (2014)

By David Denby (676) for New Yorker (1,403) on 12 Jan 2015

Review of Big Eyes (2014)

By Ed Whitfield (493) for The Ooh Tray (482) on 09 Jan 2015

Review of Big Eyes (2014)

By Neil Pond (477) for Parade Magazine (247) on 08 Jan 2015

A wacky art-history lesson told by a director who loves a kitschy underdog tale, with two lead actors who put their own colorful brushstrokes…

Review of Big Eyes (2014)

Review of Big Eyes (2014)

By Rick Kisonak (485) for Seven Days (657) on 07 Jan 2015

One of the movie's many problems is that the script wants to have it both ways: It suggests Margaret was a browbeaten victim of her husband's…
