The Christophers (15)

★★★★ – Time Out. Ian McKellen stars as an acerbic painter who takes on a young assistant and talented forger in Steven Soderbergh's supremely enjoyable comedy.

"★★★★★ – terrifically exhilarating and funny, as bracing as a large vodka and tonic before lunch: fast, literate and funny" – Guardian


"★★★★ – a terrific two-hander, with Coel and McKellen on fine, fierce form" – Empire


"★★★★ – Ian McKellen and Michaela Coel have superb chemistry" – Financial Times


★★★★ – Time Out


Steven Soderbergh’s supremely enjoyable and often hilarious new film stars Michaela Coel as aspiring artist and talented forger Lori (Coel).


Approached by the estranged heirs of celebrated painter Julian Sklar (a superbly acerbic McKellen), their plan is simple – Lori will pose as Sklar’s new assistant in order to steal and complete a series of abandoned paintings from his London home for a share of the profits when resold. But as Lori and Sklar verbally spar over age, art and legacy, Lori’s real motive for taking the job begins to appear.
