(1 - 7) of 7 OFCS Rating: 14% Rotten Page   1   2.5/5 "Far from being a roaring, sinewy beast with a lot of bite that the title might suggest, John Boorman's latest has more in common with a lumbering white elephant."   Eye for Film   Amber Wilkinson 57/100 "A real waste of a potentially interesting premise."   Apollo Guide   Dan Jardine 3/5 "A messy but absorbing mystery."   DVDTalk.com   David Cornelius 2/4 "The Tiger's Tail, like Cassandra's Dream, prominently features a boat that is both symbol of financial attainment and emotional ruin; it also finds a master filmmaker defying the "show, don't tell" principle with almost crippling cynicism."   Slant Magazine   Ed Gonzalez 2/5 "Despite Boorman's subtle, suggestive direction and a nice central performance from Gleeson, this low-key thriller never quite works."   Shadows on the Wall   Rich Cline 2/5 "John Boorman's self-indulgent "moral fable" has promise ..., but like the dueling entrepreneurs who populate one strand of the narrative, delivers more sizzle than steak."   JWR   S. James Wegg 5/10 "If there's anything about the movie that really rises above the mediocre, it's Gleeson's fantastic performance."   Antagony & Ecstasy   Tim Brayton  (1 - 7) of 7 OFCS Rating: 14% Rotten Page   1
