Miss Julie definitely gives Jessica Chastain and Colin Farrell room to shine, but neglects to leave them a solid enough setting to augment their efforts.

Liv Ullmann's adaptation of August Strindberg's play might best be billed as a midsummer night's sex tragedy. It is on the overwrought side. Sep 4, 2015 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

All talents are ill-served by the unambitious handling of the material. Sep 3, 2015 | Rating: 2/5

The film remains mostly boxed up in the kitchen, and the upstairs-downstairs tension, in both senses, dissipates. Sep 3, 2015 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

It occasionally looks too theatrical and the scene with Julie's canary might remind you of Oscar Wilde's lines about Little Nell. Yet there is passion. Sep 3, 2015 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

The film is visually bland, with only a couple of bookending outdoor sequences around a handful of interior sets. Mar 12, 2015 | Rating: 2.5/4 | Full Review…

It smoulders and smokes and generates some heat but it never really bursts into flame. Mar 12, 2015 | Rating: 2.5/4 | Full Review…

A film which aims to leave a bad taste in your mouth, for Miss Julie the question is whether that's a fatal flaw or an unrelenting examination of the ugly human heart. May 7, 2019 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

Rife with mawkish histrionics and a thoroughly overwrought script, it's hard to maintain interest in what should be an intriguing watch. Apr 5, 2019 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

Unfortunately the static nature of the sets and the cinematography make it difficult for the film to overcome its stage origins, and threatens to undermine the naturalistic conceit. Dec 10, 2018 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

In this overly literal adaptation, we know invisible forces are at work only when characters directly address their presence. Oct 5, 2018 | Rating: C- | Full Review…

Strindberg's searing insight into human nature is at the root of the film's power. Familiar and recognisable behaviours and illuminating truths, often painful, open our eyes to our frailty and greed. Aug 30, 2018 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

Chastain's performance feels too skittish, if not a little mad straight out of the blocks, playing into the hands of Strindberg's chauvinistic portrait of Julie, rather than challenging it. Nov 21, 2017 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…
