This film is Gothic with a capital G. A remote island prison for the criminally insane, its loony residents just slightly more alarming than the icily polite psychiatrist who runs the place. And then there’s the raging storm that shuts off the electricity and strands the two marshals there searching for a missing patient.
This exquisite tapestry weaves the final brutalities of the Spanish Civil War with a fantasy world equally dark, brooding, and filled with menace. A morality tale that refuses to moralize, it is presented in that half-light before the dawn, when vivid dreams overlap daylight’s pending reality, and the beasts of ancient lore still hold sway over minds innocent and true.
Modern air travel overflows with lurking dangers, but losing your daughter mid-flight usually doesn’t make the list. Impossibly, though, that is exactly what happens to Jodie Foster in the taut thriller.
Vintage Jackie Chan. But this is not the light and bubbly champagne of his younger days. It is an aged drink – dark and still and deep.
Don’t call it a remake; it’s a classic. Jackie Chan still has the moves, but acting chops as well, and Jaden Smith’s man-child is terrific, at once sullen and sweet, courageous and cowardly.
