National Theatre Live: Prima Facie Movie Reviews

Absolutely Jaw-dropping

Jodie Comer’s performance is stunning, captivating and Oscar worthy. Though it is a one woman show, she switches between so many characters with such ease and class that is suspends the audience’s disbelief fully. There was not a dry eye in the entire cinema by the end and I’ve personally still not fully processed just how hard hitting and emotional the message of Prima Facie is.

In Tessa’s words, ‘in the face of it, something has to change’. And it does. I cannot recommend watching it enough.

Extraordinary

Jodie Comer’s talent is preternatural. I don’t think the industry is even ready for it ?. Olivier Award must be pending at this point with Tony Award on the cards and Jodie Comer deserves it all. The play was just as brilliant on the silver screen, the editing and direction for camera on point and I was probably even more stunned this time round. Emotive, visceral, poignant, chastening, fearless, faultless, mesmerising, vivid, vigorous, breathtaking because well Jodie Comer. All stars have aligned with this play; production, set design, music composition, and are revolving around Jodie. The impact it’s having, and in particular on the 1 in 3, is profound. It’s probably the single most important piece of art produced in theatre for some time. Broadway has no excuse to not to be enamoured with it when it heads there.

So Powerful.

Jodie Comer is absolutely fantastic in this role. Truly one of the best acting performances I have ever seen.

The plot is powerful and will resonate deeply with a lot of women. I would gobao far as to say this should be required viewing for everyone.
