What the critics say average 7.8 from 4 outlets
- 9.1 IndiewireDavid Ehrlich
The mustiest and most conventionally entertaining film of Coppola?s brilliant career.
Read - 8.0 The GuardianPeter Bradshaw
Sofia Coppola delivers a very enjoyable southern melodrama.
Read - 8.0 The TelegraphRobbie Collin
It?s every inch a group achievement, and the film?s best scenes are its ensemble ones: prayers before bedtime, musical recitals, meals by candlelight.
Read - 6.0 The Hollywood ReporterTodd McCarthy
Other than to place slightly more emphasis on the female empowerment angle of a group of Southern women turning the tables on an injured but scheming Yankee soldier they?ve taken into their isolated household, it?s hard to detect a strong raison d?etre behind Sofia Coppola?s slow-to-develop melodrama.
