Leave your thoughts about The Tourist.
| Examiner.comJeff Beck[The Tourist] is very entertaining and thoroughly enjoyable from the very start and doesn't let up until the screen goes black, which is something that very few films are able to pull off nowadays. |
| Boston HeraldJames Verniere"The Tourist" isn't a movie; it's scenery. |
| MovielineStephanie ZacharekIf Elise and Frank are opaque to each other, they're opaque for a reason, as, sadly, lovers sometimes are. (Come to think of it, this picture has more in common with "The Lives of Others" than you might expect.) |
| Cleveland Plain DealerClint O'ConnorDepp and Jolie lack sparks, but The Tourist is a light little lark of a mystery-love story. |
| BeliefnetNell MinowJolie's role in this film is somewhere between femme fatale and Girl from Ipanema -- she spends a lot of time walking slowly while those she passes say, "Ahhhhhhh." |
| Philadelphia Daily NewsGary ThompsonDirector Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck's name is far more exciting than his movie... |
| EmanuelLevy.ComEmanuel LevyAdd the gifted German director, who deservedly won the Oscar for Lives of Others, to the long list of foreigners lured by Hollywood into making big-budget, high-concept, star-driven movie and fell flat on their faces with their first project. |
| Screen InternationalTim GriersonA fun, thimble-deep, romantic thriller with big stars and not an ounce of nutritional content. |
| Spectrum (St. George, Utah)Bruce BennettAs shallow as the Venetian scenery is beautiful with a preening Jolie and a lackluster Depp stuck in what appears to be a painstakingly long travel commercial. |
| Eclipse MagazineMichelle AlexandriaBoring, bland and self indulgent Vanity piece for Angelina Jolie. |
