Top Critics Reviews
rotten:
Conceived by Honore as a tribute to a dead friend, the helmer is perhaps too close to his subject, never quite able to bring himself to linger on the grief that should be at pic's core.

This inexpressibly tender and lovely picture suggests that [Honore's] developing into a major talent, one who can make the spirit of classic French movies come alive in a new world.

As dark as these themes seem, in Honore's capable hands, they become almost frothy and the perfect elements for a surprisingly joyous musical.

Yes, it's weird. But it's wild card weird, with that thrill of never knowing what's coming next or when these Parisians are going to get musical on us.
