Little White Lies Movie Review: | |
"Little White Lies" is a bit too long, but has plenty of Gallic charm. Calvin Wilson-St. Louis Post-Dispatch A sprawling, initially engaging French comedy-drama that became a hit in France but ultimately underwhelms. John Hartl-Seattle Times The script is banal, but the acting company and the locations are easy on the eyes. Colin Covert-Minneapolis Star Tribune The overall tone of "Little White Lies" feels off, or maybe it just doesn't translate to American audiences. Ty Burr-Boston Globe At times, it's amusing. At times, it's tragic. At times, it's romantic. But, like many vacations, it's way, way too long. James Berardinelli-ReelViews As the movie wears on ... the melodrama amps up to a final scene capable of draining any remaining pathos. Stephanie Merry-Washington Post Little White Lies is less a portrait of the poignance and beauty of lasting, mostly platonic relationships than a lesson in how to be a shitty friend. Laura Kern-Film Comment Magazine You go from sympathizing with [the characters] to wishing their time together would just end already. Tricia Olszewski-Washington City Paper By the end of the two-and-a-half hour running time, the combined efforts of the talented actors on board manage to produce a satisfying emotional finale. Marc Mohan-Oregonian A bloated, melodramatic and ultimately emotionally impenetrable affair, centering around a collection of Parisian friends whose bonds are tested when one of their group is involved in an automobile accident. Brent Simon-Shockya.com I just looked over the notepad on which I jotted my thoughts about the movie and I see that, at one point, for reasons I no longer remember, I was solving a math problem. Chris Hewitt (St. Paul)-St. Paul Pioneer Press Who needs visual fireworks when you can just shoot a close-up of Marion Cotillard? James Verniere-Boston Herald ...plays a bit like "The Big Chill"...with Dujardin in the Costner role. It's too long and not all the stories work as well as others, but it does work as a series of shallow character studies coming together for a more in-depth group portrait. Laura Clifford-Reeling Reviews Starts well but slides, and should have dropped at least one of the subplots. Kelly Vance-East Bay Express It lasts an astonishing 154 minutes, pushing on so far past its expiration date that you'll squirm uncomfortably for the final act. Robert Levin-amNewYork | |
