Molière | Ratings & Reviews

"Sumptuous, touching and often laugh-out-loud funny."

VarietyVariety

"Mr. Duris, hairy and snaggletoothed, has the look of a man stricken less by passion or inspiration than by indigestion."

The New York TimesThe New York Times

"Romain Duris may be a superb actor, but a light comedian he ain't. The farcical business of climbing up walls, and ogling unclothed young women through the windows isn't really his style."

The GuardianThe Guardian

"It's a vigorous, exuberant romp, sustained by Duris' wonderful performance and containing what must be the sexiest scene in the history of cinema involving two people in different rooms."

New Zealand HeraldNew Zealand Herald

"The temptation for many critics has been to compare Moliere to John Madden's witty and seductive Shakespeare in Love. In this case, that is not too bad a thing. Both movies sparkle with comedy and romance, and have fictional story lines that are both enjoyable and easy to believe."

NewshubNewshub

"All will appreciate the opulent set decorations and impressive costumes which are given full reign by Tirad, and his use of two mirrors to create one of the most inventive and cleverest "romantic" scenes ever captured on celluloid. That said, don't expect something akin to Dangerous Liaisons – this crackles with witty banter rather than sexual frisson. But at least there is plenty of candy for the eye with Gallic heartthrob du jour Duris, the fetching Sagnier and Morante."

Christchurch PressChristchurch Press

"A sprightly romp, and Romain Duris drips with goofy Gallic charm as the young wannabe 'artiste'."
