Except for the Mozart music and Tharp movements around the edges, Amadeus plays like a monument to mediocrity.

The performance of Abraham, who won the Best Actor Oscar for it, is monumental, and so is Forman's direction.

One of the best American films of the 1980s.

Amadeus is simply one of the finest biographical dramas ever made.

What Amadeus presents us with is an unexpected and strangely moving spectacle: a Roadrunner cartoon in which Wily Coyote... ends at last by stopping his fleet-footed foe dead in his tracks.

Sheer craftsmanship is the film's key strength.

Forman's tormented, iconoclastic subjects are often pitted against iconic or impersonal antagonists, but Amadeus' conflict remains rivetingly intimate, in spite of its sumptuous, larger-than-life settings.

The look of the film is absolutely gorgeous.

On a production level and as an evocation of a time and place, Amadeus is loaded with pleasures.
February 04, 2014
A rowdy, funny, suspenseful, and sometimes very moving visit with two fascinating personalities: one an uncouth prodigy, the other an earnest second-rater who never quite understands why somebody else should get all the glory.
