Reviews for Ulysses
It's a disappointment, though watched again now for this rerelease, it doesn't seem as much of a disappointment as all that.
A flawed enterprise, partly salvaged by the use of genuine Dublin locations and the marvellous performances of the mainly Irish cast.
It begins and ends with the word “Yes”, and like much of this amiable, affecting and garrulous 1967 film, prompts a similar response from the viewer.
There’s much to appeal in this miniature odyssey, notably the superb black-and-white location work.
