Slight but intellectually entertaining.

Fascinating work by Michael Almereyda, a mix of audacious artifice, ruminations and reality.

It is rather encouraging to see a film as ambitiously cerebral as Experimenter let loose in theaters.

Peter Sarsgaard carries this engaging biopic of Stanley Milgram.

Experimenter is not only an inventive exploration of the life and personality of an offbeat and perhaps misunderstood intellectual; it is also an exposition of his relentlessly probing mind and jarring revelations.

There are a few feints at considerations of human nature, and a word is spoken in defense of obedience, but the film serves better to start a conversation than to draw a conclusion.

"Experimenter's" most striking quality is the way it encourages us to think deeply, from the first frame to the last, even if it's just to consider what on Earth an elephant is doing on screen.
