ReviewsVariety - Steve McQueen, who demonstrates a painterly touch with composition and real cinematic flair, Empire - Hunger is a powerful, difficult piece that announces McQueen as a singular talent, and Michael Fassbender as an actor of note., The Independent - McQueen highlights the remarkable physical changes during a hunger strike rather than the impact the ordeal had on the outside world. The sympathetic portrait within this excellent film will cause much debate, and outrage
