Leave your thoughts about Papillon.
| FilmDrunkVincent ManciniA clumsy adaptation that essentially defines the gulf between "things happening" and "story." |
| Illinois TimesCharles KoplinskiA powerful metaphor for our troubled times. |
| World of ReelJordan RuimyWhy even remake "Papillon" to begin with? This new version doesn't answer that question. |
| East Bay ExpressKelly VancePretend you're watching McQueen and Hoffman. |
| AtHomeInHollywood.comStaci Layne WilsonEven though there is always something going on, the film feels far too long at its over two-hour runtime. |
| CinemalogueTodd JorgensonThis remake seems mostly unnecessary, a well-crafted epic that ultimately feels more exhausting than exciting. |
| Screen It!Jim JudyWhat's present works okay enough to earn a slight recommendation. (Full Content Review for Parents - Violence, Profanity, Nudity, etc. - also Available) |
| MiamiArtZineRuben RosarioDespite running just over two hours, the new "Papillon" doesn't overstay its welcome. If anything, it should have been longer, so viewers could truly feel the passage of time |
| Boston HeraldJames VerniereA great escape drama and a worthy remake of the 1970s original, Malek and Hunnam have solid buddy chemistry. |
| Crooked MarqueeEric D. SniderA few minutes longer than the original yet feels shorter, more efficient, more engaging, with a screenplay that brings out the relationship at the story's heart. |
