Review of The Place Beyond the Pines (2013)

By Antonia Quirke (220) for Financial Times (1,822) on 10 Apr 2013

It's an intriguing, long, imperfect film that loosens in the middle and then again towards the end - but those are the parts some will come…

By Robbie Collin (1,612) for Daily Telegraph (UK) (2,495) on 10 Apr 2013

Gosling gives his most open and engaging performance yet, his sleepy, woozy mannerisms developing into a complex interior world of hurt, resentment…

Review of The Place Beyond the Pines (2013)

Review of The Place Beyond the Pines (2013)

By Steve Persall (1,105) for Tampa Bay Times (1,287) on 09 Apr 2013

Review of The Place Beyond the Pines (2013)

By Leah Churner (24) for Austin Chronicle (7,653) on 09 Apr 2013

Review of The Place Beyond the Pines (2013)

By Jeanne Kaplan (738) for Kaplan vs. Kaplan (1,174) on 09 Apr 2013

The Place Beyond the Pines is a defining accomplishment for Cianfrance. Those 47 days filming in Schenectady really paid off…

Review of The Place Beyond the Pines (2013)

By David Kaplan (436) for Kaplan vs. Kaplan (1,174) on 09 Apr 2013

Other than a somewhat vanilla ending, and a question or two that goes unanswered, The Place Beyond the Pines grabs hold and never lets up…

Review of The Place Beyond the Pines (2013)

By Chris Fyvie (70) for The Skinny (809) on 09 Apr 2013

Review of The Place Beyond the Pines (2013)

By Maryann Johanson (2,701) for Flick Filosopher (2,694) on 08 Apr 2013

It feels like an act of subversion in the movie culture of the moment…

Review of The Place Beyond the Pines (2013)

By Olly Richards (291) for Empire (3,446) on 07 Apr 2013

In trying to tell an enormous amount of story it can spread itself too thin and leave some strands feeling unfinished, but when it’s at its…
