Movie Reviews

One Guy's Opinion - 9/10 by Frank SwietekA guy version of a chick flick, and like regular chick flicks, it's pretty sappy stuff, though with the lovely locations and sumptuous cinematography, it's very pretty.
Urban Cinefile - 9/10 by Urban Cinefile CriticsIt doesn't matter that the storyline of Ridley Scott's A Good Year is different from that of its inspiration - Peter Mayle's book, A Year in Provence. But it does matter that the tone is flippant and that we don't fall in love with the central character
FilmJerk.com - 9/10 by Brian OrndorfAs much respect I have for Crowe as a dramatic actor, the painful truth is, comedy just isn't his forte.
E! Online - 8/10 by Luke Y. ThompsonAlternately, you could do your laundry, which would be just as exciting and possibly more dramatic.
ReelViews - 8/10 by James BerardinelliGorgeous photography and strong acting keep the formula from becoming stale. For those who don't mind pictures that fall into predictable rhythms, A Good Year represents a pleasant diversion.
Boston Globe - 8/10 by Ty BurrA shamelessly enjoyable retread, an ode to la belle vie that has been well turned on a factory spindle.
ColeSmithey.com - 8/10 by Cole SmitheyRussell Crowe brings to bear his now-familiar acting tics in a not-so-tender romance by director Ridley Scott.
Greenwich Village Gazette - 8/10 by Eric LurioIt's so goddamned cute you almost want to puke, but you don't. This is the most charming movie of the year, and it comes within an inch of being too sweet to stand, but it doesn't get there.
Compuserve - 8/10 by Harvey S. KartenA pleasant enough diversion if you can get past the 'Borat'-like embarrassment of slapstick moments.
Houston Chronicle - 8/10 by Bruce WestbrookA Good Year builds so much fairy-tale contrivance with such boisterous high spirits that it's exhausting to keep feeling good about feeling good.
