Review of Choke (2008)

By David Gritten (155) for Daily Telegraph (UK) (2,495) on 21 Nov 2008

This adaptation of a novel by American provocateur Chuck Palahniuk is profane, offensive and obscene, and packed with balefully weak jokes…

Review of Choke (2008)

By Elliott Noble (448) for Sky Cinema (1,726) on 21 Nov 2008

Choke was never going to win any prizes for subtlety, but by toning down Palahniuk's nastier absurdities in favour of obvious laughs, Gregg's…

Review of Choke (2008)

By Christopher Tookey (761) for Daily Mail (UK) (1,461) on 21 Nov 2008

It's hard to know what aspect is the most offensive: the glib, cynical approach to mental illness; the sleazy sexism; the infantile attempts…

Review of Choke (2008)

By Nigel Andrews (1,359) for Financial Times (1,822) on 21 Nov 2008

The whole movie is dying, actually. But it puts on a brave face and gratefully receives visitors…

Review of Choke (2008)

By Derek Malcolm (772) for London Evening Standard (2,015) on 21 Nov 2008

Sharper direction and a less throwaway tone would have allowed it to add up to more…

Review of Choke (2008)

By Larushka Ivan-Zadeh (441) for Metro (UK) (700) on 21 Nov 2008

Wonderfully acted if wildly flawed, this a weirdly funny, ultimately uplifting ensemble comedy drama about having the courage to be a real…

Review of Choke (2008)

By Jon Fortgang (76) for Film4 (1,522) on 21 Nov 2008

Uneven and oddly compromised in tone, Choke is a competent enough black comedy, but in the shadow of that other film, it never shines…

Review of Choke (2008)

By Victor Olliver (198) for Teletext (251) on 20 Nov 2008

The many opportunities to send up sex and psychiatry are thrown away when the film gets serious about Victor's bond with his mum. We are Freud alive…

Review of Choke (2008)

By Matthew Turner (2,508) for ViewLondon (2,339) on 20 Nov 2008

Enjoyable, blackly comic drama with a great script and a terrific central performance by Sam Rockwell…

Review of Choke (2008)

By David Stratton (799) for The Australian (781) on 07 Nov 2008

There are plenty of interesting and unusual elements in this very strange film, but in the end it seems that whatever special spirit was present…

Review of Choke (2008)

By Ben Mankiewicz (74) for At the Movies (175) on 05 Nov 2008

I found it choppy, I found it dull, I found it disinteresting…

Review of Choke (2008)

By Jake Wilson (570) for The Age (Australia) (918) on 31 Oct 2008

Rockwell's performance is so artificial it's as if we're invited to look past all the tics to the real human being who might be lurking beneath…

Review of Choke (2008)

By Margaret Pomeranz (380) for At the Movies (Australia) (716) on 31 Oct 2008

Although the central performances are solid, Clark Gregg, in his first film as director has taken on a wildly ambitious story to tell, and…

Review of Choke (2008)

By Sean Burns (1,156) for Philadelphia Weekly (778) on 28 Oct 2008

Cheerfully offensive and well acted, but visually pedestrian. We needed to share the character's mania, not just passively observe it…

Review of Choke (2008)

By Jean Lowerison (512) for San Diego Metropolitan (486) on 17 Oct 2008

Rockwell and Henke are spectacular as the sex-addicted protagonists, and the other cast members are up to the task as well…

Review of Choke (2008)

By Michael Dance (46) for The Cinema Source (46) on 11 Oct 2008

It's a mishmash of a lot of cool scenes that don't really build, but those individual scenes are usually terrific…

Review of Choke (2008)

By Nick Rogers (786) for Suite101.com (114) on 08 Oct 2008

Too smart-alecky to sell the redemptive shift Clark Gregg has written into the story…

Review of Choke (2008)

By David Noh (869) for Film Journal International (5,095) on 07 Oct 2008

Sam Rockwell, with his eternally raffish, furtive quality, is perfectly cast as Victor Mancini, the unregenerate sex addict in Clark Gregg's Choke…

Review of Choke (2008)

By Austin Kennedy (419) for Sin Magazine (286) on 05 Oct 2008

CHOKE will probably find a following with 19 year old college kids who haven't seen enough good movies to know better, but this felt like a…

Review of Choke (2008)

By Zorro (2) on 04 Oct 2008

I enjoyed it. I was in awe. how can I put this more specifically…
