Rush is a genius

Rush gives a good performance as Sellers, but the prize really goes the the supporting cast -- especially Fry and Tucci. While the story is relatively interesting, the film's gimmicks are (perhaps intentionally) obtrusive, and the whole thing feels a little forced. It might be an apt metaphor for Sellers's personal struggles, but it doesn't make for particularly good filmmaking.

I would recommend this movie based on a very strong performance by Geoffrey Rush. Rush does a great job in portraying many of the great characters Sellers played. I didn't like some of the ways the story was presented. The director made some unusual choices that didn't always work.

Wherein we learn that had Peter Sellers not been employed as an actor, this self-described empty vessel of a human being would merely have been a full-time asshole. Geoffrey Rush gives a fine, Sellersian performance, eradicating his personality and giving an impenetrable surface.

I think this is really fantastic, especially for a TV movie. Geoffrey Rush is one of the finest living actors and he is in top form - a lot of work must have gone into his superb performance. The rest of the cast is good, but not in the same league. This biopic tells its story in a semi-expressionistic way, which is probably rarer than it should be for this type of movie, but might throw some people off. very good. It manages to inform us of his life and make a point at the same time.

Rush is amazing, entire cast matches him (Margolyes in particular is superb).

Strong cast elevates this fairly simple biopic.

it was interesting

Not as carnavalesque as similar biography Ed Wood, still leaves a wonder. Sellers played by Rush in one of his best performances is better left not understood. In my humble opinion a really doppelganger kind of an actor leaves a trace of destruction behind. Maybe the same is true for Rush, who knows.

Goes on a bit.

Pretty good.

Rush is makes a great Sellers and the story is interesting, otherwise it's a pretty conventional biopic.

A middling documentary. Blame the director/writer, not the lead actor whose interpretation is strong.

Brilliant biographical movie with different perpesctive view.

Really good acting on the side of Geoffrey Rush as Peter Sellers.

Geoffrey Rush makes for a surprisingly good Peter sellers in this

well acted, but BORING
