Reviews for Chaplin
Top CriticIt's a loving and often endearing homage to a man, but as with all things Hollywood, it ain't history
12/04/08
The movie was clearly made with a lot of love, and it has one deciding factor that sells it: Robert Downey Jr.
10/16/08
A sadly unenlightening attempt to profile the king of clowns.
02/27/08
For all the movie's undisputed competence, grand and inspired moments are thin on the ground.
02/27/08
Robert Downey Jr., does an impressive job as the title character, perfectly recreating Chaplin's range of English accents and mimicking, with astonishing precision, the gait and gestures of the Little Tramp.
02/27/08
With this reverential biopic, director Richard Attenborough has cranked out a many-reel, talky talkie.

Top CriticA lot of loving care (but not much thought) went into this white elephant, and considering how fascinating a figure Chaplin is it's never exactly boring, but your time would be much better spent looking at any of Chaplin's pictures.

Robert Downey enhales Chaplin's Autobiography and wears the Little Tramp's persona effectively
02/05/07
Attenborough's very traditional biopic is a disappointment.
06/24/06
Actually, it's a pretty bad movie, but Robert Downey Jr. is so great that you can forget nearly all of the clunky storytelling.
