Critics Consensus

Klimt is handsomely filmed, but the blurred storyline and substandard performances prove its undoing.

Hank Sartin Time Out Rated: 3/5 Nov 18, 2011 Full Review Melissa Anderson Time Out Rated: 2/5 Nov 17, 2011 Full Review Stephen Holden New York Times John Malkovich has virtually cornered the market on portraying aesthetes in the thrall of demonic visions. Klimt adds to his gallery of elegant monsters. Rated: 3.5/5 Oct 17, 2007 Full Review Dennis Schwartz Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews Poor excuse for an unconventional biopic. Rated: C Feb 23, 2008 Full Review Ken Fox TV Guide Raoul Ruiz's absurdly overwrought phantasmagoria tries to recast the notorious Viennese artist's life as a kind of Divine Comedy: Inferno. Rated: 2/4 Oct 19, 2007 Full Review Doris Toumarkine Film Journal International The film, however provocative and full of eye candy, is really for hardcore art-house fans only.

Audience Member Too much arty farty directing and not enough actual plot. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review Audience Member A modern Fellini-like movie in it's artistic weirdness at points. I was annoyed at the soundtrack interfering with the dialogue, not sure if it was my TV, the DVD or the actual movie itself. Klimt's works are fascinating, & the movie does make a cogent interpretation of the complex genius behind the art. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Audience Member I was wondering for quite a long time, how come I never watched this... Now I know! Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Produção de TV e roteiro confuso. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Brakuje mi słów. Chciałbym napisać sonet, który wyraziłby jaką kupą jest ten film. Malkovich, na własny koszt i własnoręcznie powinien zniszczyć wszystkie kopie. Stawiam piwo tym, którzy dadzą radę dooglądać. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member Malkovich is especially great when he plays these arrogant and womanizing artist types, isn't he? The answer is undeniably yes. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Read all reviews
