Reviews:

Enjoyable period piece
I agree with an earlier reviewer that this film derives much of its effect from being set in 1962. The period feel is beautifully communicated and the plot needs to work itself out in a world where places like Athens, Crete and Istanbul were not just exotic but isolated, where holidaying Americans would still be surprised and interested to meet other Americans, and people on the run could hope to hide away. The chemistry between the three leads, who are all well played, does lack fizz and there is a clumsy and rather hackneyed third act. But the film is never less than engaging and all the better for not resorting to surprise twists. The music tries too hard to be exciting, almost as if the director thinks the visuals need some extraneous help to keep the audience interested. I think he is wrong – there is enough going on here, including some fine acting and cinematography, to appeal to audiences who like films with substance, a trajectory, and a sound sense of place and time.

Shallow thriller
Yeah, I didn’t think much of this Patricia Highsmith novel adaptation, which feels like one of those films (such as THE TOURIST) which is all about the visuals – the locations, costumes, look of actors etc. – to the detriment of the rather predictable plotting. The main characters are a couple of American tourists in Greece who become involved with a young con man when the ugly face of murder rears its head.

This should be torrid, suspenseful stuff, and yet it all plays out in the most unsatisfactory manner. Even the action scenes don’t have any of the tension or excitement that should be rolling off the screen. The director is far too interested in his ‘beautiful’ cinematography to worry about generating the usual suspense that acts as the backbone for many a thriller. It seems that the Iranian born Hossein Amini is better known as a scriptwriter, as this was his first feature length directed movie, so perhaps he should stick to writing.

One of the most criminal things about The Two Faces of January is that it wastes a leading performance from the great Viggo Mortensen. Mortensen has a typically complex character to play, but is subdued so that you almost feel like he’s wooden in places even though that can’t possibly be the case. I’ve never liked the overly earnest Oscar Isaac much either, and Kirsten Dunst is just terrible. The resultant film is a missed opportunity more than anything else.
