Why Fiennes chose to use Shakespearean text is confusing, especially when he must have known that Coriolanus isn't the most recognisable of Shakespeare's plays.

Fiennes' blend of action and homage is top-notch, as is direction.... Fiennes created his own modern world for which it's easy to suspend disbelief.

The play's inherent difficulties notwithstanding, Coriolanus, the movie, is a perfectly sound achievement.

As good as all the men are, it's Vanessa Redgrave who steals the movie.

"Coriolanus" is a triumph.
January 08, 2013
The film has fifth-act problems, as did the play, but Fiennes' bleak overview should leave receptive viewers feeling daunted and haunted.

Slathered in blood, covered with scars and glowering with a predator's gaze, Ralph Fiennes makes a fierce and impressive Caius Martius Coriolanus.

Fiennes leads a cast that, at least in the major roles, is uniformly powerful.
June 30, 2013
A powerful and relevant Shakespeare adaptation that firecely brings the story to life.

If this is how Fiennes rolls behind the camera, our next great director has raised his fist to the skies.

The other actors do their best to help Fiennes define this curious anti-hero. Incapable of playing the role of peacetime compromiser, his Coriolanus comes across as a warrior who simply can't function without a war.

Coriolanus is Shakespeare done right; Ralph Fiennes takes a play about Roman war and hubris and turns it into a violently charismatic pic.
