Review of The Singing Detective (2003) by Kevin Thomas for Los Angeles Times — 28 Mar 2013
Too flat and academic to come alive. The film's lack of dimension tends to render much of it banal, and Downey's lengthy harangues, as beautifully wrought as they are, are overly literary, which serves to make this intricate film seem all the more contrived.
