Critics Consensus

Anthony Hopkins and Matthew Goode are a tremendously talented pair, but Freud's Last Session is too scattered and thinly written to take full advantage of their efforts.

Kermode and Mayo's Take (YouTube)

Here, the only overdose that's been taken, it's an overdose of acting pills.

Empire Magazine

It’s not the fault of either star, but the half-baked script makes this an unsatisfyingly thin exploration of the weighty themes it seeks to cover.

Rated: 2/5

The Sun (UK)

Hopkins and Goode give two understated yet im- pressively precise performances.

Cinema Daily US

Like much of Freud’s legacy, this film presents food for thought that isn’t always as fascinating or easy to digest as its idea’s originators anticipate.

Rated: B

However, Freud’s Last Session never seems to give us a reason to care about what’s happening, making it feel like a lifeless lecture.

I’m a bit puzzled at who this film is for.

This is a slow moving movie that is deep. Not what you would expect a movie to be. Save your money and wait for it to streaming at home.

Thoroughly enjoyable film. The acting is wonderful. The story is great. The production is first rate. The film really takes you back to the past where you can see these two great thinkers interacting in a genuine way about what might be the most important question of all: does God exist? Don't get me wrong: I like a good action movie or comedy as much as anyone else, but I do wish there were more movies like this one.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars
