Dead Man’s Wire Review – An Entertaining, Taken from The Headlines, Crime Thriller www.haute-lifestyle.com/168-haute-th...
“This is edgy, explosive filmmaking—part true-crime thriller, part American tragedy, and one of Van Sant’s strongest works in years. He takes big swings, trusts the audience to wrestle with ambiguity, and makes a film that lingers long after the credits.”
“Dead Man’s Wire succeeds because it understands the tragedy beneath the circus. Van Sant and Skarsgård refuse to simplify [Tony Kiritsis], portraying a flawed, furious man undone by forces bigger than himself.”
Dead Man’s Wire review:
“[Bill] Skarsgård plays Tony as someone who tries to stay reasonable long after reason has abandoned him. His performance balances wounded pride, fury, & a strange sort of charisma that keeps you watching even as his actions become indefensible.”

“Dead Man’s Wire boasts incredible performances, great direction, and a strong script which, paired all together, create a tense, provocative, and powerful drama that makes an incredibly well-rounded film.”
“Dead Man’s Wire is a tense drama that focuses on a completely unrecognizable Bill Skarsgård (in human form, at least) in arguably one of his best roles to date…a captivating story of pushing the wrong man too far.”

“[Bill] Skarsgård is one of our most versatile actors & ably brings the essence of Tony’s dilemma to the screen. [He] could probably play this role with ease…but that shouldn’t make one dismiss the quality of his solemn work in Van Sant’s excellently edited picture.”
