Emma Clark-Dow

If you love a historical film with unrequited love, war, plague and even witchcraft, Dangerous Beauty is for you.

This film can be seen on the small screen, since it’s not big, but make sure you have some good resolution on your TV or you’ll miss some of the more elegant work of the year.

Only McCormack manages to breathe any urgency into a tale that takes far too long to escape the fate of too many films set in Venice, in which San Marco and the Grand Canal's gondola fleet overwhelm story and characters.

David Noh

There's an essential insipidity here, matched by its predictable music score.
