Coriolanus
When war hero Coriolanus (Ray Fiennes) is betrayed by his people, he flees into the hands of the enemy (Gerard Butler) to plot his bloody revenge. In his directorial debut, Ralph Fiennes captures epic warfare for the modern era, complete with machine guns, flak jackets and a gritty urban backdrop.

- " Fieness has chosen and used the material well. " – Vladan Petkovic
- " Coriolanus is a determinedly grim but smart, resonant film, faithful to the tone of the original, done with some skill and conviction. " – Shubhra Gupta
