This movie is chilling because of the lack of resolve. The villain faces no consequences and the innocent pay for it.
Ya, it is her atonement too, by writing a story and gain from it at the end, when she already got one foot underground.
I think that’s what makes it realistic. Usually in real life good things happen to bad people and they suffer no consequences
Like reality. Sadly people are mostly under the impression good wins out over bad the most often and it's actually not true in all actuality more often then not there is no real good or bad victims are never really just Victims villains are never truly just villains. Only in cases such as the defiling of innocence is it ever truly black and white yet those are the cases that most go unjustified
Just like REAL LIFE
This is how the world works
I'd forgotten that Benedict was even in this movie, and as the REAL antagonist. He's such a chilling villain, he should play more creepy roles!
I Agree 100%
Briony is also the antagonist
I agree! He’s a terrific actor, and no one’s going to forget him with that name.
He did in Power of the dog give it a watch
He’s great as Khan in Star Trek
“Grooming” is the word that comes to mind…Cumberbatch was a great villain
Vodou.Did he really do,you know? (Go all the way?) She did not make a peep.Then marry him later??
@@amandamorgan2802 Why and how she gets to marry him? She blackmail him to tell the true?
@@amandamorgan2802 Seriously? What an awful comment. Good god lady, victim blaming a child for her assault.
@@silviaa.lezcano9807 I think in the movie it says that he wanted to marry her because once you do your wife can't be asked to testify against you.
Also is that Juno Temple?
@@Stories_and_all Yes it is 😀
God you only see the assault for a split second but that's more than enough for a lifetime. No child should have to live through that.
RIGHT? for me thats horrifying than ANY horror movie jumpscare
@@allier1867 definitely! A real.gut-punching horror, the kind you never forget.
And another child in the movie took this opportunity to implicate her sister's lover in a false case ensuring a lifetime of pain and loss for her sister and her lover.
@@Stories_and_all indeed, a horrible situation where the innocent are all punished and the guilty get off scot-free.
He was acting like himself. Many actors in hollyweirs are peedos and actually pursue children like that
Juno is so good. “I’ll thank you not to talk about that in front of the children.” She IS a child.
She Never had a childhood, clearly.
He wasn't about to tell her that, he wanted her young mind to think in some way that she was an adult 'like him. 😔
He saw an opportunity as soon as he heard that.
Naive and ignorant. I'd say You are the child here.
But she doesn’t think of herself as one… which is what groomers are looking for… great movie, terrifying
***spoilers***
I hate this movie 😖 not because it was bad or poorly acted, because it was so well written and the acting is incredible!! I hate how creepy Cumberbatch's role is, and how he gets exactly what he wants and gets away with it. I hate how characters who are good and innocent end up suffering for the rest of their lives until their cruel deaths!
The injustice of this movie hurts me.
So you dont hate the MOVIE then. You find horrible characters horrible.
Sadly this happens more often than the happy ending in the real world
Sooo relate to me, I also 'hate' this movie lol, never seen it twice
I was depressed after watching the movie and cannot bring myself to watch it again. The injustice is physically painful
The book is even worse
When I was 13 and watching this movie, I had no idea what was going on with him and Lola until the wedding. Now that I’m an adult, it’s so clear what he did from the start. Absolutely disgusting
Why the hell were you watching this at 10
10? gurl...
I saw how prominent Briony was in the trailer and thought I would relate since we were around the same age 😅 also I misremembered- I think I was 13, watching it on a plane, hence the lack of gatekeeping from theater staff or parents. I just edited my original comment accordingly
I saw it as a kid too, but I had been assaulted, so I eh, I got it.
@@lizc6393 🥺
“It was Robbie, wasn’t it?” Dagger through my heart
She was so adamant about him being a bad person that she completely disregarded the REAL creep in her vicinity, she ruined the life of Robbie and her sister and had to write in a (somewhat) happy ending for them which definitely will not fix anything…I hope Briony burns in hell
@@chrysrubio1024 Ah no... no hell burning. She already suffered her punishment on earth and truly felt sorry for what she'd done AS A CHILD. Children lie. Many people are in jail right now due to a child's lie. The issue is that once the child understands how their thought processes were wrong, they mentally suffer or in many cases repress it to protect themselves. I feel sorry for Robbie, Briony and her sister. There was no winning in that situation.
@@HadassaMoon144 even so she never confessed, she never even apologized. It’s one thing to do something as a child, but she got to live the rest of her life as a successful writer
@@HadassaMoon144yes, along with feeling, in a way, responsible for her own sister’s death- Her obvious remorse that she has no idea what to do with, possibly because of her stunted emotional development as a child. I thought I was weird that, by the end of the film, she was the one I felt most sorry for.
She knew it wasn't Robbie.
The chilling part in all this is before shes sexually assaulted outside, this scene shows that its possible shes already been assaulted by him.
Yeppp you see this scene in a different context
Its weird how brilliant actors like saoirse and benedict made me hate their characters so much.
The ability to make you hate a character is what makes someone a brilliant actor.
That's exactly why they are brilliant actors
That means they are good at their job.
What is incredible is that this actress who played Lola convincingly played both a 13 year old and the 20 year old version of the character. This is in contrast to the character played by Saiorse Ronan who had the older person played by a different actress.
Juno Temple... Great actress. Very underrated...
@@victorrodrigueesoficial Yes, she is terrific. It stands to reason that they needed an actual older actress to play the role -- especially for the explicit 1-second scene. She was totally convincing as a 13 year girl-- event though she was like 20 years old.
Juno Temple is a great actress and is quite good at portraying various ages like in this film.
Maybe because Saiorse Ronan was just 13 and Juno was almost 18 when this movie came out? It's kind of difficult to make a child look over 20.
Saoirse was so young! I wonder if she's wearing pearls, mother of pearl or moonstone.
When I first saw him again in "Sherlock" I remember thinking: "I don't like this actor, he's creepy", and I couldn't understand why I felt like that, until I remembered his role in this film. Very well done indeed!
Haha! Poor Benedict, he is a such good actor😅😂
He played a “sociopath” in Sherlock so…
@@famshars2389 well yes, but a vaguely endearing one...
@@famshars2389 but Sherlock would never harm anybody
@@famshars2389 No. Sherlock clearly does not display the traits of sociopathy. It’s just a joke or a demeaning way he sees himself. He clearly possesses empathy and human emotions other than anger. In actuality, it’d be more likely he has high functioning autism, which is completely different. People with autism have emotions and some struggle with perspective-taking, but they do have empathy. Sherlock’s character should not be conflated with sociopathy.
The depth of injustice,malice in this movie is unfathamable😭
He was acting like himself. Many actors in hollyweirs are peedos and actually pursue children like that
What happens in this movie?
Man, I was probably 15 when I first watched this. Maybe younger. And the little redhead girl felt like such a young woman. I thought it was weird, of course, that Benedict seemed interested in her, but coming back to this movie at age 29… I can just see how easily some young women (girls) get manipulated. We feel such naive agency when we’re younger. You truly can’t grapple just how young you are, how vulnerable.
And that’s why some men like younger women. Why some men are also pedophiles. There is an uneven power dynamic. They know this fact.
It's the same for me as a guy, honestly.
At 18, I felt like a man. Now I realise how vulnerable I could've been, because there are many predatory men out there who also seek teen boys.
Glad I was too ugly to be prey for any weirdo out there.
We are not weak. That narrative. Is disrespectful to women. Either you're weak and you have no agency which or you know what you're doing. It can't be both. You can't not know any better but then you're doing it 😂
@@chayo4537 This is awful. Yes, young women have agency and intelligence. They also deserve to be protected from predators. Being preyed on is awful regardless of your age and agency. The youth, in general, are especially vulnerable.
I've been a fan of Benedict Cumberbatch for a long time and seeing him in this movie left me feeling shocked, disgusted and disturbed. He is such an undeniably great actor.
Agreed! He was absolutely sickening in this role, just as he was supposed to be!
Same
Can't watch it
That’s I feel about Tucci’s character from the lovely bones. He is so good that I hate him so much even though I love him in every role.
"i beg you not to talk about this in front of the children" bby u r the children
15 year olds back then weren't as sheltered and naive as you.
@@jaei6680I love the feature that shows what other comments people have left on a video. It sounds like you have a new favorite n word ❤
ANYWAY. I love that line, it really shows the treatment of the children as being subpar and borderline neglectful, like the parents would have noticed something was up had they set down the opulence and hired help and just raised their kids closely monitored. Lola had to treat them as “the children” because she had to grow up so fast and responded to Paul talking to her in that first scene like she was glad he actually gave her any attention at all, since she didn’t seem to have anyone except from Briony. Poor kid
@@robbieboydudeguy tldr
@@jaei6680translation: you read the entire thing but got offended and can’t think of a comeback so instead you pretended you hadn’t read it!
I really never realized how unbelievably stacked this cast was. Like DEEP. Mostly bc some of them were yet to be big. But Alfie before his GoT days, Saorsie, Keira, James, Juno, Benedict… and that’s all just for starters! Whew.
You forgot 18 year old briony. She's as good as everyone else
Benadryl Cucumbersalad just made this character absolutely nauseating, great job.
Also, 6:18 This one frame, one scene is just so chilling. I can't describe what I felt when I first saw this. Sometimes I feel like shows end up sexualizing the assault too much for creepers on internet that may enjoy that kind of scenes. This one frame is perfect to represent the disgusting nature of it.
Lol. I say Benadryl Cabbage patch. 😂
Ohhhh... I had look at it twice to understand that they were doing it
I agree with you completely! Well said..
Admittedly, it took me a moment to realize what was happening in this scene. At first watch, it almost looked to me like a corpse she saw, possibly one of the twins, then I realized when the shadow dashed away what was actually happening. It looked and felt like a horror movie moment - which is exactly how it should be, because it is a horror taking place. 💯
@@73cidalia lol same 🤣
he has a hand over her mouth and he is obviously taking her from behind. disgusting stuff.
The way he looked at her when she examined the chocolate,, 😥
So interesting how with adult eyes, in that room, it's so clear what's going on between them, but the kids are none the wiser. Except the twin on the left i think can sense something is a little weird, but he wouldn't be able to put his finger on it
The way Paul went after Lola was so predatory. It's makes me wonder how many other teenage girls Paul has previously accosted🤔😱. I'm curious to know what was going through Lola's mind during her encounter with him. She didn't seemed intimidated by Paul but I'm sure she wasn't expecting his creepy aggressiveness🙁😕
What she felt was just a little crush everyone had while they were young towards an older person, we've all had it before... But Paul abused her trust and fascination towards him, and traumatized her for life
@@celestiastra13 She's a nasty piece of work as well though considering she bullies her brothers into running into the woods, and she never sets the record straight for Robbie, even though she knows bloody well it's Paul Marshall who's attacked her. She even agrees to marry him FFS which is gross. 🤮
@@invisibleman4827 she was a child 💀 let's add a groomed and assaulted child. hate on briony, she was petty just bc she was jealous and is the reason why the whole plot is so f**ked up
@@malena6539 Yeah but Briony was a child as well. Sure, she deserves contempt for what she did, but there are clear signs that Marshall had already forced himself on Lola or at least tried to. Remember when she was crying allegedly over her brothers being upset, and at the dinner table people notice the bruises on her, she blames her brothers and Marshall awkwardly claims he pulled them off her and blames them for his own scratches. You'd think she'd be able to work out who it was who'd jumped her in the woods after that experience. Not only does she keep her mouth shut while an innocent man who found her brothers gets the blame, but she marries her attacker.
@@invisibleman4827 bc she was groomed! ofc she wouldn't expose him! less if she knew he was going to marry her after this. she probably thought it was okay to be treated this way bc he made her think that and the period of time the movie is placed doesn't help either. and we see marshall is basically a groomer and abuser of theory book, that's how the movie portrays him so you get the cue that he was indeed grooming a child. and lola wasn't exactly the first one declaring robbie guilty if we're gonna talk about that, she wasn't the one saying "it was robbie, isn't it?" and then "yes, I saw him with my very own eyes", blaming an innocent man and ruining his life.
at least Lola has a justification for her behavior. briony was horrible just because she wanted to see robin suffering because he didn't love her but her sister
After watching this movie, I couldn’t look at Cumberbatch without being creeped out for AGES!
Same
Separate the actor from the role would you..
@@TaeThei it only means he did his job well. Obviously we know the difference. This movie was the first time I’d ever seen him on screen. It left an impression 🤷🏼♀️
That's how I felt about Peter Saarsgard in Boys Don't Cry.
The good thing for me is the first role I’ve ever watched him in was Sherlock and I loved his portrayal of that character and I’ve been a fan ever since, I’ve never watched this movie though so I can’t say anything about it.
I always wondered why she had to direct his bags to the room twice but maybe the footman knew what he was like and was horrified he would be next to the nursery.
that wasn't the footman. that's Robbie. technically, he's a servant since his father was one. but I don't think he really had to work that much, rather focus on his studies. I think may be that's why he didn't know which one was the yellow room, not because he knew something.
Look again, that's NOT Robbie.
It’s not Robbie I’ll admit they look a lot alike
Never watched this film but got soo much from this clip. Servants gossip so it is likely he knew. It is also likely Cumberbatch's character knows the servants suspect but also that their suspicions don't matter because they don't matter which adds another layer.
That was Danny, played by a young Alfie Allen.
Not all great movies have happy endings. This is one of best movies Hollywood has made. Perfect acting. Beautifully filmed.
It's based on a book by Ian McEwan, which are arguably more brilliant. You should read it!
I thought the movie was made in the uk?
But the film is British, it´s not Hollywood.
Unpopular opinion acoming but I don’t think Briany lied (based on film). At the time she didn’t know who it was, she just assumed it was Robbie because she saw him with her sister and thought he was a predator. Only when she realised Cumberbatch pursued Juno to marriage did she have the epiphany that she actually saw cumberbatch, new information can literally change your interpretation of memories. she believed it was Robbie at the time, but soon realised she made a mistake and finally put all the puzzle pieces together. She shouldn’t have insisted she saw him if she wasn’t sure, but she might have actually been sure in her own mind.
I get why you would think that based on the movie. In the book she is unsure from the very beginning, but her anger towards Robbie clouded her judgement. There were also other factors that caused here to lie, so I definitely recommend reading the book!
she was 11 too like give the girl a break 😭
She accused him because she had a crush on Robbie.
@@user-pm3wx1gq9jand at least one other person’s life got ruined- the other girl’s that is. Imagine being married to a monster. Not to mention, Robbie and Keira Knightley’s character.
@@user-pm3wx1gq9j
Still ruined someone's life
Cumberbatch is one of the best of his generation. His character was like a snake in the grass. Amazing film.
So creepy, his performance. Very well done. Those eyes, that stare. He has it down to a tee.
He can play any type of character but I love seeing him completely opposite of his personality. He makes the best villain/antagonist. I love him in anything.
So you support peedophiles? Because that is what he is in real life!
He was acting like himself. Many actors in hollyweirs are peedos and actually pursue children like that
Do you ever listen to yourself?
"The opposite of his personality"
As if you know what that creep is like in real life 😂
Loved this film, broke my heart that she sent an innocent man to jail out of jealousy.
And she ruined her sister's chance to be with her true love :(
I can't comprehend how Briony was so insisted that Robbie was bad
Jealousy.
Yes it was jealousy. She was jealous of the attention Robbie gave to Briony's big sister, Keira Knightley's character.
I imagine the book would be a good read as there's always more back story to what is going on in the movie.
@@sharons9773the book is excellent and it goes more into Briony’s feelings for Robbie. She has a crush on him but he treats her like a kid and loves her big sister instead. Briony also has a very romantized idea of life full of dashing heroes and evil villains (just look at the play she writes) and she doesn’t understand the full consequences of her actions. She became emotionally stunted by the event once she realized what she had done. She spends the rest of her life writing the story and trying to deal with the guilt and express her feelings about it.
This movie truly left a mark on me. It was so aggravating and realistic in the sense that a lot of predators get away with their crimes. That groomers don't always get caught. Everything about this movie frustrated me to no end, it was amazing. Movies that can make you feel strong emotions truly are the best.
The flashlight scene gave me actual nightmares!
I think the movie was immaculately acted and written however 12 year old me didn't like the creepy man with a mustache and well 22 year old me still doesn't like the creepy man with a mustache. I couldn't understand way Robbie was falsely accused and got such a horrible end and I couldn't understand how creepy mustache man got away with the worst thing ever! And also how bad of a friend she was to lie for all those years and for even allowing the wedding to take place despite her knowing the truth. I hated how creepy benedicts role was in this movie probably because of how accurately written and portrayed his role was in that era of time and also how there are still men like him who act the way his character did and end up forcing women into a marriage.... It gives me chills and heebeejeebies
What do you mean let the wedding take place? She had no control over that, and Lola knew exactly who attacked her and she let Robbie take the fall.
@@naleybaby she has the opportunity at the wedding to reject it, the "speak now or forever hold your peace" bit, she remembers he was the abuser. And is smart enough to know he will keep abusing her in marriage.
He was acting like himself. Many actors in hollyweirs are peedos and actually pursue children like that
I totally forgot he was in this because my hatred for Briony erased everything else.
SAME!!! AND LOLA!!
This was the first time I ever saw Benedict. I absolutely *loathed* him - and took an irrational set against him (the actor) just from this part 😂 The way he keeps looking at Lola - especially when he says "bite it. You have to bite it!" Creep. The next thing I saw him in was Stuart A Life Backwards (with Tom Hardy) and what a sweetheart of a character he played. Polar opposite of his role in Atonement. From that moment I knew he was a phenominal talent. Props too to Juno in this film, she's always brilliant.

@@coppersulphate002 what a sinister - (and totally unfounded) thing to assert - imagining the poor guy is up to all sorts!
Take your perverted fantasies elsewhere, ya sicko!
I had no idea what was going on until I read the book and we rewatched the movie. Absolutely chilling.
I haven't read the book yet. Does it reveal much about how Lola came to marry him years later?
@@daisyjeffs no not really. It’s exactly like the scene in the movie. The book doesn’t go into detail. But a lot of people believe she married him because she was afraid of the scandal.
@@glowinluna5742 why did she marry him then?
@@malena6539 one, he groomed her so she was probably manipulated into marrying him. Two, she wanted to avoid a scandal or avoid have it be known that she was assaulted and that she wasn’t a virgin. A young woman who wasn’t married and wasn’t a virgin was a big deal back then, especially for wealthy people.
@@ambergreen981 If what I’m getting from the book it’s definitely grooming what happened and society pressure. Also being scared to speak up.
Brilliant performance. Those looks he gives are too real.
Especially when he tells her to “bite it” while he was clearly turned on.. ugh disgusting.
@@miranda13c Definitely upsetting.

@@miranda13cit was so chilling. I bet he felt so uncomfortable 😭 same with the actress
Ever since I watched this movie as a child, James McAvoy owned my heart and I had distanced myself from Cumberbatch's works. I mean..they are actors, I know. But this movie had that effect on me.
I've had the same reaction, I could never look at Cumberbatch the same ever again.

Only movie I’ve seen once and can’t bear to watch again.
The ending scene of them together and its a lie is heart wrenching. Like a punch in the gut. What happens is so unfair. Just thinking about the injustice portrayed in this movie makes me so angry.
Well, grow up Karen.
This role made me wonder what everyone saw in him. I could never get this out of my mind. Seeing how charming he is in interviews since have helped.
He is an actor

@@emomsen1089 I guess a lot of people are like that. My brain isn't like that at all, I just know they are actors who are acting. I've heard actors tell stories about someone going up to them angry because they think they are a character they play. So weird.
@@neonnights3955 That's another kind of level, cause they actually think they're a character, i've never seen that, but i do have seen people hating or loving an actor for a role they played even tho they know the difference
Learn how to separate the actor from their roles... Itll help with your mental health
This movie can inspire powerful emotions. This girl destroyed two lives with ignorance and lies. If this was real I hope that the pain she carries with her would give her introspection. I remember the first time watching this movie, I watched it at a very challenging time in my life. I still have emotions watching it. It is a movie I both love and don’t love, but it is an incredible story and film.
This is Benedict's most memorable role - so small, but sooo brilliant. What a villain.
Very good movie and fantastic acting. But I’ve never been so depressed in my life while watching it and afterwards!!!
That was creepy, and brilliantly acted from both Cumberbatch and the red haired teenager actress.
Well done!
It’s Juno Temple, currently starring in Ted Lasso.
He was acting like himself. Many actors in hollyweirs are peedos and actually pursue children like that
The way so many people don’t know Juno temple makes me sad, she’s such an amazing actress 😭
OMG, I didn't realize that was him portraying such a disgusting human being !!! I remember hating his face and not even realizing it was Cumberbatch.
The supporting cast in this movie is so good..Juno temple and Cumberbatch
Can’t bring myself to even watch the clip. Seeing this movie when I was a child literally felt like someone sticking a knife in my heart and letting it bleed. Kind of like the time I finished reading Noughts and Crosses by Malorie Blackman. Same feeling. Just numbness and horror and sadness at injustice.
Honestly this wasn't a movie for u to watch at the time or any other children
@@mrpurple11 that’s true - I was twelve when it came out but even then…
Absolutely horrifying, this movie is a dark masterpiece
i watched this movie once....ONE TIME because my anger issues at the main character at the villian getting away was to much for me to bare....a billion years latter and even the clips of the film fill me with rage
Sometimes I forget how much I love Benedict's Cumberbatch acting, he's just great.
Does anyone wonder if Lola knew the whole time that it was Paul Marshall? But in her head, she figured it was love between them so she never said anything? Otherwise, how come she didn't want to look at Briony after the wedding? Almost like she had something to hide.
She definitely knew..and it was all brianys fault . She hated that man from the moment he turned her crush down. She was jealous of her sister and Robbie. Which is why she lied on him

At the time I first watched this movie years ago, Benedict Cumberbatch wasn't on my radar. I didn't know who he was, so I had since forgotten that he was in this movie, much less that he played that loathsome antagonist. I'm kind of amazed and appalled to discover that despicable monster was played by one of my (now) favorite actors. He must have done a good job, because this disgusting character still gives me the creeps.
There are a handful of movies I've only ever been able to watch once and this is one of them because all the good people are destroyed by the cowardice and greed of others. All the actors did a great job, but the story is just relentlessly sad and depressing.
He was acting like himself. Many actors in hollyweirs are peedos and actually pursue children like that
You have just watched a PG 13 version of child exploitation
I did a presentation about Paul Marshall for high school lit, I remember looking up the actor's name and thinking "Ben-e-dict Cumber-batch? Pfft, he won't go anywhere" - I was so wrong!!
Haha 😂
Worldwide fame and a real star with over 72 acting awards and two Oscar nominations. He’s phenomenal.
I remember regretting watching this movie after finishing BBC's Sherlock Holmes. I was so in love with Benedict and then this 😫😭
This will always be one of my favorite movies. It's so deep.
6:18 I literally took like 5 whole minutes just to figure out what i was looking at. Initially I thought the twins got so brutally M- word that their bodies were twisted. But then i realised what I was looking at 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Wait I’m confused what was it ?!
Yeah i paused to figure out what i was looking at i thought it was the twins too
Sammmme like why where they just paused like that. I just watched it today nd my god the ending made me sad. I really hated that little girls character
@@ot7stan207 By the look of it he was r2ping the girl
Same!! I went through watching the entire scene and I couldn't ever understand what had happened. My mind had so many questions, maybe the twins were brutally murdered or a tiny part of me felt that it might've the creepy guy doing something to Lola. But I wasn't sure until a very long time 😭
I love this movie so much. The first time I ever saw Benedicti in a movie. I remember thinking what a creep bleh… while at the same time falling in love with James McAvoy. 😍
This movie has an amazing cast omggg
First time I ever saw (or heard of) Benedict Cumberbatch, Juno Temple, or Saoirse Ronan. All were memorable. 👍🏻👏🏻
This is the first role I've seen of him and now seeing him in anything else I always remember the scene of him running off in the dark. Same with Juno Temple.
I first saw Benedict Cumberbatch in Atonement, not knowing him in any other movies before. And girl, his hateful role and his acting had such a deep impact on me that for a time I wouldn't watch other movies/shows of him (particularly Sherlock) because he made me uncomfortable 😂
Ahhh I totally get that! But he is so sweet in real life 😂
@@ImoLP yeah that is the person peedos give off. Don't be fooled
Did get over it? Because if not you’re missing out on his phenomenal acting not mention he’s such a sweetheart in real life.
One of the first roles that I remember seeing Juno Temple in, she’s amazing!
Spine-chilling music. It plays important part of the movie and fits like a glove
This movie broke me😅 the scene were James confronted her in her apartment was so intense... Good casting❤
One of the best movie ever made. MASTERPIECE!
this film has so many layers i adore it
Brilliant movie. All these years after it still hurts to watch this movie😢
Absolutely such a beautiful film in so many ways and deeply sad and moving on many levels .
As Doctor Strange and Sherlock, I wish I could have Benedict as a friend. But when I see him as this dude and Phil in Power of the Dog, I feel legit terrified of him.
He needs to star in more villain roles
Oh wow. Didn’t realize they were the same actor. Ha.
i screamed when i watched this movie again and recognised him
Christ that’s unsettling
When I realized who he was after watching like a full season of Sherlock I was shocked! I hated this character soo much. The whole movie was disturbing. Thank goodness I didn’t make the connection until after I started watching Sherlock. I probably wouldn’t have watched. He’s clearly a great actor and a good person
That was Benedict!? 😱 I had nightmares about this guy.
This story was heartbreaking
He is such a great actor he can make u hate him...
When I watched the end of this movie I thought Robbie and Cecilia were reunited until the old lady made a statement. I felt so sorry for both of them that their unfinished stories affected me deeply and it has now become my favorite movie.
THAT’S where I first remembered him from!! I knew I had seen him in something when he got cast as Dr Strange. I used to watch Atonement quite a bit because I was in love with James McAvoy (still am too 😂)
When Robbie came back with the two twins after finding them his little smile not knowing what’s about to happens to hi
There are so many good actors in the movie (I haven't seen the whole thing) I know them all from less.... Complicated-to-detestable roles and I'm so impressed by how much they made me hate them even though I know I like them irl 😂😂
My introduction to Benedict! Great film
is that Theo Greyjoy carrying the luggage?
Yes he is!
I have perhaps the opposite view as so many others here. I am not a Cumberbatch fan at all, I’ve found him grating ever since Sherlock made so aggravating the character I loved so much in the books. With how chilling he is in this role, I actually like his portrayal a lot more, because they’re not trying to frame his character as a good guy.
sadly this is the first role I saw him, juno and saorise in. It’s burned forever in my memory but I’m happy all of them came up as they so deserved. All of them unbelievably talented but these characters live rent free in my head forever😅 a powerful movie that definitely earned best film of the year.
YES I thought I was the only one who couldnt stomach this movie and understand it at first 😖
Бенедикт Камбэрбетч - гениальный актёр.
Каждой своей ролью он умеет вызывать бурю эмоций - от негодования и отвращения до полной влюбленности в его героя. Глубоко проникает и цепляет струны души. Обожаю его😍
Greatest film of all time.
I was speechless when I watched this movie the plot twist was so good
The casting in this film was excellent, Lola character is so well played as a precocious and provocative tween, and Cumberbatch is as predatory as ever, his eyes..
I was so invested in this movie. This is the first movie I'd seen him in and have been creeped out ever since. Well done I guess.
Never realized this was juno temple!! I love her
Benedict is unparalleled
I’ve never seen this movie but it looks like an impressive cast
Never to this day did I saw this movie completely and I m traumatized
I can never see Benedict C. the same way
“You’ve got to BITE IT” freakn sicko.
I love this movie. I think it’s beautiful and terrible. I can’t watch it very often though because it’s heartbreaking.
That scene in the coffee shop where C barely touches Robbie’s hand and he’s just totally undone.
James McAvoy is underrated.
Wtf I got so emotionally taken within these 10 mins that I feel like my whole morning plan is thrown off
I LOVED this movie.
I love this movie and book. His character really creeped me out. It was also the first time I had seen him act. He did a perfect representation
Yep he hardly had any screen time but you don’t forget his creepy character at all.
"I like your shoes."
"Would you like to take them off for me please."
