About the Movie
When FBI Special Agent Joe Merriwether (Jeffrey Dean Morgan) is unable to solve a series of homicides, he enlists the help of former colleague, Dr. John Clancy (Anthony Hopkins), a retired physician with psychic powers. Soon, Clancy realizes that his exceptional intuitive powers are no match against the extraordinary powers of the vicious murderer (Colin Farrell) on a mission.

Top Critics' Reviews
Rotten: Staggeringly silly and visually disordered, this unfortunate misfire has been kicking around Europe and elsewhere for a couple of years under different titles, and it's easy to see why.
Rotten: End up being better than it probably deserves to be, but most of the time, that's because Hopkins can really do no wrong ... except in picking his movies.
Rotten: Solace isn't a Silence of the Lambs sequel in which Hopkins gets to reprise the role of Hannibal Lecter. But he comes pretty damn close in this ludicrous murder mystery, which is stuck somewhere between a bad season of Dexter and a dated crime flick.
Rotten: The directorial pyrotechnics keep Solace from "dragging" in a narrative sense; the very real boredom it nonetheless elicits is more existential.
Customer Reviews
Great
Movie. The concept was great and the movie suspenseful. It kept you on your toes most of the movie. Don't listen to the paid reviewers. They only give positive reviews for what they are paid for.
I wish Apple would eliminate the Tomato reviews. They are meaningless and inaccurate most of the time.
Solace
Very well written Psychological Thriller. You'll be on a rollercoaster of empathy. This movie plays out through Diegesis. The cast together in the movie are amazing! Anthony Hopkins character ends in means of mimesis. I can't wait to watch it again!
SOLACE
This is a fun and exhilarating thriller. Very much enjoyed he plot and acting. Especially Hopkins and Farrell. Two of the best actors working right now!
