The movie proceeds at a measured and reverent pace, a little unfocused, but with intelligent performances from three heavyweight acting talents.

It's a chilly, cruel film about characters that are difficult to like or warm to, and it obviously means a great deal to a country that for so long rejected its greatest writer.

A brilliantly acted semi-dud.

[A] handsome, if patchy, rendering of Patrick White's story of manipulation and dysfunction among the rich and selfish.

Too often the film's moods switch unsuccessfully between the abruptly serious and the broadly bizarre.

The film circles (slowly, like an overfed vulture) around the protracted death of a savage matriarch played, with no concessions to subtlety, by Charlotte Rampling.

Has taken almost two years to reach the UK; you'd be forgiven for thinking it was far longer, given its sub-Joseph Losey pretensions and doily-like styling.

It is funny and sad in patches, but never comes completely alive, perhaps because there isn't a single character with whom you can feel fully in sympathy.

Rush and Davis are two of the best actors in the business, and their brittle gamesmanship and rue holds the screen. But the film is disappointingly lackluster -- a mild squall instead of a storm.

Although the story holds much premise, The Eye of the Storm survives mostly off the performances of the leading cast members.

Sometimes a feast of acting isn't enough.

It all feels like a whittled-down miniseries.
