April 03, 2007 It is repetitive at times, occasionally lagging, but the performances by Oldman and especially Molina simply demand your attention.

August 20, 2012 Oldman, fresh from his triumph as Sex Pistol Sid Vicious in Sid and Nancy, is the key and holds it all together.

Empire Magazine
April 06, 2007 A decent snapshot of pre-Beatle Britain, this is much more a fact-based gay melodrama than a trenchant portrait of Joe Orton's life, loves and art.

Time Out
June 24, 2006 Oldman is brilliant; Molina's Halliwell less subtle; and the film's dissection of cottaging quaintly amusing.

Chicago Sun-Times
January 01, 2000 The great performances in the movie are, of course, at its center. Gary Oldman plays Orton and Alfred Molina plays Halliwell, and these are two of the best performances of the year.

Variety
March 26, 2009 Gary Oldman is excellent as Orton, right down to remarkable resemblance, while Alfred Molina creates both an amusing and tormented Halliwell. Vanessa Redgrave takes top honors, though, as a compassionate and benign agent.

January 01, 2000 Like "Casablanca," "Diva," "Clockwork Orange" and countless other quality-cult films, "Prick Up Your Ears" has an indefinable idiosyncrasy that makes you want to come back for more.

Guardian
April 07, 2007 Stands up extraordinarily well: mostly because of two outstanding central performances, Gary Oldman as the talented, blase Orton, and Alfred Molina as his thwarted, Hancock-esque murderer Kenneth Halliwell.
