Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
There isn't an actor here who really connects.

fresh:
Bardem's hypnotic presence, like that of an Easter Island statue come to life, is one of the film's many pleasures. As is its intimations of a love everlasting.

[Actress Mezzogiorno] finds the story's emotion by resisting the tug of the movie into grandeur.

rotten:
Mike Newell's handsome adaptation of Gabriel Garcia Marquez' novel looks lovely, but feels lifeless; the chemistry between the main characters just isn't there.

fresh:
Sometimes you're watching a bad movie, and you're like, 'Well, I'm still entertained,' so I'm recommending it on that sort of level.
