Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
Makes the viewer wish that Ivory had cast a more accomplished actress -- Kate Winslet, perhaps, or Cate Blanchett -- who could give dimension to the character and indicate subtext in a way that Thurman can't.
– Edward Guthmann,

rotten:
It is beautifully, dramatically and grandly long, tedious, boring and slow.
– Pam Sitt,

rotten:
In this movie, all displays of passion feel like gaudy pantomime.
– Geoff Pevere,

fresh:
coiled, nuanced, resonant tale.
– Susan Stark,
Detroit News,

rotten:
It suffers mightily from its deliberate pacing, pale characterizations, obvious plot and some woeful miscasting.
