Critic Reviews for Phantom of the Theatre
All Critics (11) | Top Critics (4) | Fresh (5) | Rotten (6)
A spooky and stylish thriller that sustains interest even after it veers from the flamboyantly fantastical to the relatively realistic.
Eventually, even the story sinks under the weight of its forced grandiosity and literal-mindedness.
Like one of its unfortunate acrobats, the movie spins out of control.
"Phantom" glories in its own artifice. The movie is carried by sweeping widescreen images, dynamic camera movements, impressive special effects and a color scheme that contrasts icy blues against fiery reds.
Raymond Yip Wai Man's Phantom of the Theatre has all the easy-to-digest charm of a Disneyland attraction. Also most of the built-in limitations.
It may seem corny to American audiences but it's entertaining and handsome, with a grand sense of design, lavish costumes, and bigger than life emotions, like a lavish, colorful old Hollywood picture with modern special effects.
