The simplicity in director Michael Caton-Jones' tale about a man looking to redefine his concept of right and wrong is powerful enough to carry the movie.December 05, 2018
[director Michael] Caton-Jones's ASHER is as much a contemplative look at being aged out of life as it is recognizing that sometimes we must break out of our ruts to get more.December 06, 2018
Unfortunately the pace is so relaxed as to be meandering; and Jay Zaretsky's screenplay is cliché-packed...December 14, 2018
You can appreciate the character-driven approach of this crime drama while also wishing the titular protagonist had a more compelling movie in which to inhabit.December 06, 2018
Nothing in the proceedings rings remotely true unless you've been weaned on a steady diet of soulful hit men movies.December 07, 2018
Asher tries to get by on the talent of its leads, but it's a dull thriller hamstrung by sloppy pacing and a poorly-constructed screenplay.December 05, 2018
"Asher" can move slowly at times, kind of like its main character, but you find yourself rooting for the old guy.December 05, 2018
Even when revenge doesn't connect, the softer areas of the writing do, delivering a picture that takes some dramatic risks while still delivering moments of blunt trauma.December 06, 2018
Dreyfuss sinks his teeth into his handful of scenes, while Bisset hits different but equally effective tones in her moments. The underrated Janssen, striking as ever, does her usual stellar work.December 03, 2018
As obvious and rudimentary as Asher is, it's kind of forgivable when you consider that this movie is really Perlman finally getting his chance to be the sympathetic, charismatic leading man.
