Review of Ondine (2010)

By Tim Robey (1,578) for Daily Telegraph (UK) (2,495) on 05 Mar 2010

Review of Ondine (2010)

Review of Ondine (2010)

By Nigel Andrews (1,359) for Financial Times (1,822) on 05 Mar 2010

With any Jordan film there are a few moments of poetry, wit and transcendence. But you need a large net to catch them here…

Review of Ondine (2010)

By Anthony Quinn (478) for Independent (UK) (2,026) on 05 Mar 2010

When revelation of the story's soggy mysteries is finally fished out from the murk it's so underwhelming you'd be tempted to throw it right…
