Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
Scenes between YSL and rock-steady lover Pierre Berge (Guillaume Gallienne) spark, but the film stays too reverent to truly turn heads.

rotten:
This glitzy biopic of the renowned French fashion designer doesn't offer much insight into its subject or milieu.
– Ben Sachs,

rotten:
The film takes on a dour note as way too much time is spent on Saint Laurent's drunken antics. He comes across as sullen and not very likable. This may be true to the man, but what of his other side?
– Mary Houlihan,
Chicago Sun-Times,
28 Aug 2014
rotten:
Does a film with haute couture as its heart guarantee an elegant cinematic experience? In the case of Yves Saint Laurent, a biopic about the legendary French couturier, the answer is a tired non.
– Bruce Demara,
Toronto Star,

rotten:
Despite being sumptuously shot and competently assembled, it provides no real insight into the tortured mind of its subject or the creative process in general.
