REVIEWS
"Despite being named after him, Jack the Ripper, the film, offers no real insight into the murderous figure." - Sean Williamson, Toronto Star
"Despite a more than adequate budget and a big name cast, Tom Hooper makes it all look like the low-budget British television his career started in." - Michael Wilmington, Rolling Stone
"Despite the poor directorial choices by Tom Hooper and the paint-by-numbers mystery that masquerades as the plot of the film, the cast alone makes this movie worth watching - barely." - Henry Stewart, Chicago Sun-Times
Rated R for graphic violence, sexual content and nudity.
