Review of The Emperor's Club (2002) by Dana Stevens for The New York Times — 05 Oct 2009
Carefully sets itself up as an obvious, transparent morality play, and then just as deliberately refuses the easy payoff. This is both impressive and a little disingenuous: the film is in effect congratulating itself for refusing to offer a neat and tidy view of life without offering much else.
