- Synopsis
- Based on John Steinbeck's 1937 classic tale of two travelling companions, George and Lennie, who wander the country during the Depression, dreaming of a better life for themselves. Then, just as heaven is within their grasp, it is inevitably yanked away. The film follows Steinbeck's novel closely, exploring questions of strength, weakness, usefulness, reality and utopia, bringing Steinbeck's California vividly to life.

- Critics' reviews
-
-
"Well-mounted and very traditional, Of Mice and Men honorably serves John Steinbeck's classic story of two Depression-era drifters without bringing anything new to it."
-
"Of Mice and Men is a mournful, distantly heard lament for the loss of American innocence."
-
"Here are solid characters, a taut and emotional story, a beginning, a middle and a wrenching end."
-
"The biggest surprise is that Sinise steals scene after scene from Malkovich who has the flashier role. His work also has a quiet power, a tribute to the minimalist acting style"
-
"Seems doomed to remain a period piece"
