With the release of The Rover in the UK tomorrow (Friday 15 August 2014), I thought I’d put together a few of the great reviews that are emerging (I’ll update as more come through or any I’ve missed):

NME:  “Pattinson’s been reinventing himself post-Twilight and puts in a transformative shift here so don’t be put off by his casting. This definitely isn’t one for the twi-hards.”

ScreenRelish:  “Pattinson slams the door on all those “Team Edward” jokes with an outstanding breakout performance. Reaching shades of nuance he’s never before displayed, the TWILIGHT star brings heartbreak to Rey’s conflicting allegiances without ever copping out to melodrama.”

The Establishing Shot: “Robert Pattinson pulls in another impressive and understated performance as Rey, continuing his path to become his generations James Dean (without the tragedy)”

ComicBuzz:  ” It is the performance of Pattinson that really made the movie for me”

DigitalSpy:  “One delightfully off-kilter moment has Rey singing along to ‘Pretty Girl Rock’ on the car radio …”

Dazed:  “… a performance by Pattinson that puts the ghost of Twilight to rest.”

LittleWhiteLies: “Pattinson’s Rey is every bit the Lennie Small to Eric’s George Milton, from soulful campfire vigils in which the whispered philosophical discourse is clearly a case of one-way traffic …”

Metro:  “Robert Pattinson playing a twitchy American simpleton is just one of this film’s many surprises.”

Wharf.co.uk:  “Pattinson is exceptionally good and more than a match for Pearce.”

DailyStar:  “After convincing as a cold-blooded financial whizzkid in Cosmopolis, the former vampire pulls off a dizzying turn to play a very emotional halfwit in this ultra-violent thriller.”

ListFilm:  “Robert Pattinson shakes off the Twilight glitter and gets grotty in writer-director David Michôd’s stripped-back, post societal collapse drama.”
