Visually, there's an elegance to "The Door" that feels both a virtue and a limitation.

Only cinemagoers who've enjoyed the cringe-worthy cine-sadism of watching train wrecks like Tommy Wiseau's The Room and Plan 9 from Outer Space could and should embrace this turd.

Without make up or any adornments, the haggard Helen Mirren cooks, cleans and growls her way through this intimate, well-handled two-hander opposite the equally able Martina Gedeck.

This film is a failure on a catastrophic level.

An absorbing and complex character drama, but one that's difficult to connect to at times.

There's something quite haunting about the relationship between the two women: in some surprising ways, this is a determinedly unsentimental work.

Seems like a creative miscalculation by all concerned. The dialogue is clumsy in translation, the great director István Szabó seems to have lost his subtlety and his eye for performance

The film has a formality and stilted quality about it that is distancing

Mirren and Gedeck shine but stirring Hungarian drama has its faults.

Audience Reviews for The Door

I love the multichannel storytelling metadiscipline of cinema. The Tomatometer of 44% and Audience "liked it" rating of 51% is unworthy of this work.

A slow burning highly moving film about a survivor of the genocides of the early 20th century in East Europe.
Mirren is as always totally convincing.
The story unfolds as the crusty old woman slowly opens up revealing just how far she had gone to protect an innocent life.
