Barney's Version

It's all as warm and fuzzy as the smoke from Barney's cigars, and just as much of an acquired taste.

...remains a triumph, illuminated by a terrific leading man turn from Paul Giamatti.

Giamatti kan som de største filmstjerner bære en film alene på sine let sunkne skuldre...

Når »Barneys mange liv« (...) er værd at se, er det på grund af Paul Giamatti, der her får sit livs rolle.

Like its hero, it’s not always pretty to look at but it’s always seductively engaging.

Barney is a memorable character, all acidic jabs and unrelenting, outsized selfishness.
