If you're looking for a spectacular visual experience, this isn't it. But if you're interested in writers and editors, this film is for you.

Any film that takes literature this seriously deserves some credit.
June 17, 2016
Well-written, gorgeously shot, and expertly edited, the film is also an exasperating exercise in good intentions gone wrong.
December 13, 2016
A valuable film because of its story and its attractive cultural background, than by its (irregular) artistic results, which owes its most exciting moments to Colin Firth. [Full review in Spanish]

Firth and Law falter with their characters' awkward bromance: the former a fatherly cipher (will he ever take off that fedora?); the latter a clatter of drunken scribe clichés.

"Genius" deals with the creative ego, its trappings and the need everyone has for an editor.

An intriguing study of the personalities and torturous process behind some of the early 20th century's great writing.

Unimaginative literary biopic.

The problem of the film is that the promised magnetism of the story it's hardly found in the screen. [Full review in Spanish]

Not nearly as smart as it should be.
December 19, 2016
A film about literature that is neither literary nor cinematic and it gives the impression that wants to get away from the solemn to reach the popular, but ends up being superficial. [Full review in Spanish]
