Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Artistry abounds in every aspect of the film.
– Kevin Thomas,
Los Angeles Times,
13 Feb 2001
rotten:
There's something too artificial and highfalutin about the movie.
– Desson Thomson,
Washington Post,
1 Jan 2000
fresh:
A fascinating, if occasionally overly melodramatic, recreation of a period when Baroque music ruled Europe.
– James Berardinelli,
ReelViews,

rotten:
Because Carlo Broschi, the 18th-century castrato singer known as Farinelli, was himself such an exotic and sensationalistic figure, you'd think that creating a dull movie out of his flamboyant life would be next to impossible. Think again.
– Hal Hinson,
Washington Post,

rotten:
Glossy and histrionic, salacious and empty, Farinelli reduces a fascinating story to a series of hissy fits and leering glances.
