The Manchurian Candidate (2004)
Description
In that very controversial political story, where it speaks of more powerful events. The story began as the abducted soldier becomes the next vice president of the United States. But on the other side there is another soldier racing to uncover the plot behind him, a conspiracy that seeks to destroy democracy itself. Maybe things could turn upside down.

Following a dozen years of docs, light comedy, and p.c. weepies, Candidate represents Demme's best dramatic filmmaking since The Silence of the Lambs.

If it isn't the original's equal, The Manchurian Candidate conjures up an air of menace sufficient to make most modern thrillers look like romantic comedies.
October 18, 2008
Demme's direction is as punctilious as it was in Silence of the Lambs, careful with details and craftsmanlike with storytelling -- although we do have to work a bit to stay on top of things.
August 19, 2010
This humorless and nonsensical update of The Manchurian Candidate - a total misread of Frankenheimer's classic original - never quite engages, devolving the original's camp and satire into self-serious melodrama.

Sleek remake is more violent than original.

Beautifully made and unsurpassingly creepy, it's the rare remake with something contemporary to add.

Demme serves the picture completely.

A rather decent imitation in the end with political subtext and very good performances.

Strikes me as a very artful cover -- about the cleverest imaginable transliteration of the story from its historical moment to ours.
November 20, 2008
It is as shocking now as it was forty years ago, but nothing in the 2004 version approaches that level of intensity, intelligence, or audacity.

Far from a disgrace, but it's not freewheeling enough, not strange enough to make sense of our gathering dread.

Happily, this extremely timely entertainment matches, even perhaps surpasses its predecessor.
