The Age of Shadows justifies its imposing length with a richly detailed period drama whose sprawling size is matched by strong acting, impressive craft, and narrative depth.

The action is lengthy but well constructed, particularly a sequence on a wood-panelled steam train, but the torture scenes and occasional severed toes may try some viewers. March 24, 2017 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

At 140 minutes, The Age of Shadows is a film that peaks early and ends late. Still, there is an upside to this ponderousness. March 24, 2017 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

It is a thoroughly plotted film, carefully constructed to make sense most especially when the plot explodes all over. It climaxes at the right time, with twists and turns are perfectly placed to produce all the apt emotions. May 1, 2018 | Full Review…
