Cronenberg's cold, exacting precision and emotionally removed observation may not grab all viewers, but under those perfect surfaces is a raw horror trying to claw out of the denial.

While not one of Cronenberg's stronger films, this anti-capitalist adaptation still merits attention.

"Cosmopolis" is a hypnotic examination of our modern anxieties about the dehumanization brought on by wealth, power, and technology.

Quickly grows repetitive and tiresome, meandering toward messages that land softly, producing little impact.

Over and above its topical urgency or the bit about the misfortune of globalism, it does what this director has always done in his films: split open the head of a character, plunge inside and try to visualise the bad and the ugly things to be found there.

The rapid dialogue is dry and mannered, like a David Mamet play, there's virtually no story and Cronenberg's visual scheme is cold and claustrophobic.

"Cosmopolis," because of its allegiance to the book's mannered, offbeat language, feels like it never wakes up.

Poor Pattinson does the best he can. He's not terrible. But he's definitely out of his element, if not beyond his depth, an altar boy in a bishop's robes.

There's not really a movie there, nothing that sustains itself from scene to scene and nothing that's worth watching from beginning to end.

It feels like each and every moment bursts forth with urgent dialogue, and yet what does anyone actually say?
