Great expectations are unavoidable when Roman Polanski takes on a Charles Dickens classic. Alas, his version of Oliver Twist fails to live up to them.

Oliver Twist is a lovely, tony picture, but it isn't exactly essential.
August 02, 2007
Polanski has crafted something that already feels like a classic film, beautiful to look at, combining accurate period detail with a certain gothic expressionism and brimming with earthy characters and high drama.

A smorgasbord of urban decay, social disorder, and class conflict imbues the film with a potent sensuality

It's noble, high-minded and safe, and I can't help thinking that I would have preferred an audacious but honest failure.
September 30, 2005
A grounded and unusually matter-of-fact adaptation.

Oliver Twist is an affecting and refreshing adaptation of Dickens seminal work from a master director.
September 27, 2006
Polanski's film is not a bad adaptation, and it may be a fine way to introduce children to the classic story. But it is not exactly a definitive version of that story.

In Oliver Twist, it's the viewer who is punished.
February 08, 2007
The unspoken sense of youthful post-traumatic holocaust syndrome shock and awe in Polanski's Twist is as palpable as the murky stench and appalling human misery of Dickens' chaotic London streets.
September 30, 2005
Poignant and primal, Roman Polanski's splendid adaptation of the Charles Dickens classic pricks the heart and the conscience.
