Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
At nearly three hours, it's entirely too long, needlessly padded out with an intrusive interview-framing device.

fresh:
Poupaud's quiet moments convey a lofty, poignant introspection, and Clement erupts with grand, if scattershot, furies.

fresh:
It's all too much, really, including its 21/2-hour-plus running time. But it's also engrossing, an ultimately tender story of a transsexual's transformation over 10 years and its effect on him and the people around him.

fresh:
Lushly romantic and daringly original.

fresh:
"Laurence Anyways" is a formidable display of French Canadian director Xavier Dolan's prodigious talents, but also a case study of a young talent still finding his way to greatness.He'll get there one day, soon, but this film doesn't quite do it.
