Everyone speaks in pidgin English with thick Russian accents, which reduces the flick to an unintentional farce.

Anchored by two strong lead performances, this film is nothing like the serial killer thriller the trailer suggests. In fact, it is nothing like what you think you are going to get.

[An] unrelentingly grim, plodding, and close-to-incoherent adaptation of Tom Rob Smith's best-selling mystery.

Once in a while comes that star-studded film to remind that even the best assemblage of thespians isn't enough to save the most underwhelming of films.

Child 44 is bland in every aspect, which is a shame as the source novel could have been turned into an exciting movie if it had the right directorial hands to guide it (as well as a more eye catching title, Child 44 sounds pretty boring in name alone).

It's rare that a movie more than two hours long is criticized for being too short, but there's just so much crammed in, and the speedy clip of events doesn't permit the audience to gain a deep empathy for anyone involved.

Given these actors and the ravishing decrepitude of the locations and costumes and the lustrous cinematography of Oliver Wood, I found it more than watchable the whole way through.

Hardy and Rapace provide a solid emotional anchor as a couple brought together by fear and tightened by survival instinct.

It's as tedious as a bottomless bowl of borscht.

Equally bloated and scatterbrained.

The movie hints at a riveting story but is incapable of delivering it.

"Child 44" is involving despite itself.
