“A fleet-footed and boisterously enjoyable Dickens adaptation that breathes new life into a well-worn story.”
Aroview: A modern take on the Charles Dickens classic about the young orphan who triumphs over adversity in Victorian England. Puts a refreshing spin on stuffy period drama conventions, with actor Dev Patel never better in the role of David Copperfield.

4 stars (Very Good) Fun and inventive. Colour-blind casting and squeezing in so much plot makes things confusing at times, but there's always the book to refer to . . . ~Shorty
3 stars (Good Enough) An interesting take on the story. The production values are fine and there is a fine trio of talented performers in Peter Capaldi, Tilda Swinton, and Hugh Laurie in reasonable form. ~Tubbs
