Review of Mr. Turner (2014) by James M — 08 Mar 2015
Mike Leigh's biopic of eccentric 19th century artist J. M. W. Turner is as pretty as a picture, with fine cinematography and production values, as well as solid performances from Timothy Spall and the supporting cast.
The story itself is quite boring, with some of the pacing at a near standstill, and doesn't quite justify it's running time.
Exceptionally made it may well be, but it's not amongst the director's finest work.
