Movie Reviews

culturevulture.net - 8/10 by Arthur Lazere[Director] Deruddere never condescends to the characters--as foolish as they may be, she respects them and sympathizes with them and so do we.
Filmcritic.com - 8/10 by Frank OchiengEverybody's Famous! starts out as a triumphant commentary on what it takes to achieve celebrity and the wealth it promises. But as the film progresses, it becomes wildly tedious and wacky.
Film Journal International - 8/10 by Shirley SealyA highly entertaining escape even for those of us who are already oversaturated with entertainment.
Mr. Showbiz - 8/10 by Michael AtkinsonIts arc is as easy to forecast as its soundtrack is tiresome.
San Francisco Chronicle - 8/10 by Edward GuthmannThe result is a sprightly, entertaining film, but one in which the satire is neutralized for laughs.
San Francisco Examiner - 7/10 by Leslie KatzThese themes have been handled with more depth on I Love Lucy and The Brady Bunch.
Boston Globe - 6/10 by Loren KingA likable satire on celebrity, Flemish-style, it is no less pointed than its American counterparts, just a lot less pompous.
Citysearch - 6/10 by Dave KehrAn odd combination of sentimentality and cynicism.
Dallas Morning News - 6/10 by Chris VognarWho in the world is in charge of foreign film Oscar nominations? And what hints of greatness did they see in this artlessly benign little comedy?
Screen It! - 5/10 by Jim JudyAn amiable and generally entertaining, albeit small scale picture.
