Daniel Day-Lewis's latest project has audiences torn between unwavering loyalty to the legendary actor and lukewarm reception of the film itself. While fans appreciate his continued commitment to challenging roles, the overall execution leaves viewers wanting more despite flashes of brilliance.

After a strong opening drag, there’s the feeling that the film doesn’t really have anything more to say, its revelations seeming fairly paltry in the scheme of things.

Anemone does a capable job of building up the mystery at its heart, waiting and waiting until the pressure builds before finally giving both audiences and its characters a release valve — primarily through yet another tour-de-force monologue that Daniel Day-Lewis makes a meal out of, as he's done many a time before.

The first and most important thing to say about “Anemone,” a bleak, somber, absorbing but also sometimes frustratingly opaque collaboration with his director son Ronan, is that it’s brought Day-Lewis back.
