Proof received generally positive reviews from film critics. Review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes gave the film a 62% rating, with an average rating of 6.4/10, based on 143 reviews. The consensus reads, "Gwyneth Paltrow and Anthony Hopkins give exceptional performances in a film that intelligently tackles the territory between madness and genius."
"Proof", the excellent play by David Auburn, was one of the best things in the New York stage in recent memory. Part of the attraction was the intelligent subject matter, math science, and how it connected the four characters one got to meet.
Movie Review. Proof takes moviegoers not into a whirlpool of mental illness seemingly brought about by genius, but rather into the crevasses that so often form in the middle of relationships. Featured is a bond between a father (Robert) and his daughter (Catherine).
