Critic Reviews
-
Kate Taylor, Globe and Mail
Desplechin's big, bold, iconoclastic feature Rois et Reine is a disconcerting film that can turn your head at the oddest moments.
-
Susan Walker, Toronto Star
Funny, absurd, often mocking itself and always quoting cultural history.
-
Bob Longino, Atlanta Journal-Constitution
While these characters' lives are melodramatic, individual scenes burst with kinetic energy from fast editing and an script that deftly underscores the destructive nature of male-female relationships.
-
Steven Rea, Philadelphia Inquirer
Kings and Queen, full of passion and humor, madness and grief, is close to a masterpiece.
-
James Berardinelli, ReelViews
Kings and Queen is at times compelling, at times devastating, and at times long-winded.
