Review of The Manchurian Candidate (2004) by William Arnold for Seattle Post-Intelligencer — 10 Apr 2008
Very surprisingly, Meryl Streep is not wonderful as Schreiber's scheming, incestuously possessive mother. She gobbles up all the scenery but, for whatever reason, she's just not half as chilling a portrait of demented mother love as the original's Angela Lansbury.
