Gala Magazine and Nice Matin:
We posted a lot of reviews HERE, but here are a few more reviews of Cosmopolis:
“Pattinson is able to convey a whole lot about his Cosmopolis character simply with a curdled sneer and a soul-sick gaze. He’s skilled at delivering the tricky DeLillo dialogue, too, which Cronenberg has preserved in huge swaths for his adaptation.” -Kyle Buchanan,
——————
“Eric Packer (a surprisingly adequate Robert Pattinson), [is] an ambivalent and self-destructive power broker.” -Simon Abrams,
——————-
“Featuring an ensemble cast built on quick cameos, the film is anchored by a solid, ennui-filled performance by Robert Pattinson, shedding his Twilight skin for something more substantive and reminiscent of Christian Bale in American Pyscho.” -Raffi Asdourian,

Giamatti hadn’t worked with Cronenberg before, but he was excited to hear that someone was adapting one of Don DeLillo’s novels. The script, with its single very long scene for his character, won him over completely.
“I thought the script was just bonkers,” he says. “And then the part was really interesting. And then it’s also 20 minutes long. That doesn’t come along very often.”
Here’s a new interview of Rob with Rai News – Italy (dubbed but you can hear it some):
Translation
I: Is it weird for you to be here in Cannes with Kristen Stewart, who is in another movie? R: Even my friend is here and it’s really weird; this is the year when Twilight ends and both me and Kristen and my best friend Tom are here in Cannes.
I: Robert pattinson, in this movie you are a vampire of finance. Can we analyze this role in this key? R: I mean, kind of. I actually never considered it to be a movie about banks or Wall street. I don’t think Eric sees himself as a person working in the finance world. I think he believes he made money thanks to finance but what he actually likes are numbers; so i don’t think the movie is necessarily about the conclusion of capitalism, not at all. I don’t even know what it is about.
