      Audience Reviews for The Talented Mr. Ripley

      • Apr 21, 2017

        An oddball thriller that turns up the heat pretty quickly with a game changing plot twist an hour in. Matt Damon plays a perfectly creepy young man, Tom Ripley, who wants nothing more than to have a life full of friends. He quickly forms an obsession over Dickie Greenleaf (played by Jude Law) whom he was sent to Italy to bring back to the U.S., but things go awry when Tom takes things too far. The tone of the film changes from fun and playful to grim and violent very quickly. It's a mildly interesting crime driven character study taking place in a beautiful location: Italy. See it for the performances and visuals.

        The film is always on the verge of becoming your typical art-house psycho-sexual thriller, complete with exotic European locals, sexy sad rich people, homosexuality, opulence, obvious symbolism with mirrors, and, of course, murder. However the film is elevated by Damon's captivating performance and the rest of the cast. Also, the twisty plot is undeniably compelling.

        A dive into the mind of a frustrated arriviste and the violent and cunning methods he uses to fulfill his social and affective yearnings. Subtle, suspenseful and fascinating character study.
