Daniel D @DDorman Jul 8, 2026 This is John Cusack's finest film. If you read a little bit about Edgar Allen Poe, you'll see how this film, and how Cusack nailed Poe. I believe it is the most accurate portrayal of America's first writer who solely lived on his earnings of being a writer. If you know nothing of E.A.P. Then you wouldn't think much of this movie ie rotten tomatoes rating... See more Mike K. @Hateras Nov 12, 2025 John Cusack is the perfect actor to portray Edgar Allen Poe. See more Carolyn K. @deCAL Sep 30, 2025 Terrible and very non-creative and its register of a fantasy drama, more eerie, and a natural than any genius or genuine poem, readers, and fans whatever I imagine could happen – – distasteful selection, and a bad bad impression of a life, quite daunting and curiously magically, mysterious, and cut and blistering pieces of humanity all at once … See more Troy R @Grim16 Sep 20, 2025 Decent story with decent acting. As a fan of Poe it was an interesting take on his stories played out in the real world. I think the ending was ok... nothing special. Whole movie kind was like that a little slow, nothing overly amazing, and just a decent watch. The audio seemed to have a little bit of a mixing issue where the characters were very quite but the music/back ground noises could be loud, maybe just the version I was watching.

But this is supposed to be the real Poe? No. I couldn't buy it any point. It just seemed too ridiculous. And the way the kidnapping happened was not any credit to the writer here. They were already on high alert, and they still let that happen? When? It might have worked if they had used a fictional protagonist and made the crimes make more sense. See more Read all reviews
