It is as shocking now as it was forty years ago, but nothing in the 2004 version approaches that level of intensity, intelligence, or audacity.

Sleek remake is more violent than original.

Strikes me as a very artful cover -- about the cleverest imaginable transliteration of the story from its historical moment to ours.

Demme's direction is as punctilious as it was in Silence of the Lambs, careful with details and craftsmanlike with storytelling -- although we do have to work a bit to stay on top of things.

Far from a disgrace, but it's not freewheeling enough, not strange enough to make sense of our gathering dread.

If it isn't the original's equal, The Manchurian Candidate conjures up an air of menace sufficient to make most modern thrillers look like romantic comedies.

Happily, this extremely timely entertainment matches, even perhaps surpasses its predecessor.

This humorless and nonsensical update of The Manchurian Candidate - a total misread of Frankenheimer's classic original - never quite engages, devolving the original's camp and satire into self-serious melodrama.

Beautifully made and unsurpassingly creepy, it's the rare remake with something contemporary to add.

A rather decent imitation in the end with political subtext and very good performances.

Demme serves the picture completely.
Village Voice

Following a dozen years of docs, light comedy, and p.c. weepies, Candidate represents Demme's best dramatic filmmaking since The Silence of the Lambs.
