The service was great, but the movie was just average.

    FRENETIC PACE, CHAOTIC PLOT, SUPERFICIAL CHARACTERS
  

*by S***R on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on July 5, 2022*

I imagine some people might enjoy this  movie, possibly those with a special interest in mathematical puzzles.  But if you are seeking a murder mystery that makes sense and has a cathartic resolution, move on.  For one thing, although the mystery genre is known for lightly sketched characters -- presumably to enable suspicion to grow about a number of suspects -- the genre also provides a central protagonist, usually a detective, as someone we trust.  In this instance that character is a young grad student, Martin, played with notable enthusiasm but not much else by Elijah Wood, as someone caught up in a murder case and intent upon solving it.  The trouble is we have no sense of Martin's character and the story lacks a core. Martin's motivations are bewildering.  We know virtually nothing of his backstory or why Beth, a pretty housemate, would fall almost instantly in love with him.  His other love interest, with whom he gets sexually involved, also appears to find him irresistible at first sight.  It isn't that he is unattractive but the wide-eyed innocence of Frodo Baggins has not quite morphed sufficiently into a lustful Romeo to make these interactions work.  All we really know about Martin is that he is obsessed with a notorious Oxford professor, played effectively by John Hurt, and wants to engage him as his tutor.  Also distracting, in the first scene Martin meets his new landlady and daughter [Beth] and the conversation that evolves is eccentric, disjointed, and way too bizarre for an initial social encounter.  As this scene is so early in the film it tends to dislocate our expectations for credibility moving forward.  The murders themselves get lost in the pace of the story and there is little compassion for the victims.  I also felt that the sex scenes were gratuitous and distracting from the overall tone.  The woman with whom these scenes take place supposedly wants to run off with Martin -- though they have only known each other for a week or so at the time she gets this idea -- so it is difficult to feel sympathy for her emotional pain when it all falls apart.  It is difficult, in fact, to relate to any of the relationships in the story when so little is known or conveyed about the inner lives of the characters.Again, I think someone with a serious vibe for mathematics would find this film engaging but the rest of us may find better ways to spend our time.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    A feast for the eyes and the intellect!
  

*by P***P on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 10, 2014*

I cannot recall the photography of a movie that embraced faces the way the camera does in "Oxford." It moves in to Elijah Wood's blue eyes which are like the painting of Vermeer and the camera hovers almost lovingly, over the very young, smooth face. It zeros in on the craggy face of John Hurt, the deep creases like  a bas relief of a canyon. The two faces are diametric opposites, one the unlined hallmark of youth, the other age and experience.At Oxford University the bonding of two men, the young graduate student from Arizona, Martin (Wood)and the embittered mathematics professor Arthur Seldom (Hurt) begins in a large class room where Seldom is lecturing. Martin from the audience challenges the professor's belief in the Ludwig Wittgenstein theory that there is no real truth. Fate seems to play a large part in this beautiful film, throwing the two men together-the young student and the elderly professor- in a series of circumstances that swallow them up for  perhaps they are  on the trail of a serial killer. The ending of this intellectual thriller  after a series of red herrings is a surprise if not a shock."The Oxford Murders" is a very erudite film. Because the dialog moves swiftly and there is mention of so many obscure philosophers and theologians, bringing up the captions helps the viewer grasp the situation. Cryptic symbols and a series of natural looking deaths drive the plot and the viewer has to play close attention.I found that looking up the "butterfly effect" helped me to better understand and appreciate the ending: a butterfly flapping its wings somewhere can initiate huge changes in conditions somewhere else, even on the other side of the world.
