Marie Antoinette

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Lavish imagery and a daring soundtrack set this film apart from most period dramas; in fact, style completely takes precedence over plot and character development in Coppola's vision of the doomed queen.

Sukhdev Sandhu Daily Telegraph (UK) Whatever the film's structural failings and historical gaps, it's great to see such a distinctive directorial vision coming out of Hollywood. Apr 1, 2019 Full Review Jonathan Romney Independent on Sunday ...an ambitious, affecting, truly distinctive piece of work, albeit one that will tell you more about 1780s footwear than about the causes and effects of the French Revolution. Apr 1, 2019 Full Review Nigel Andrews Financial Times Drawn from Antonia Fraser's biography - or riffing on it - this slyly seditious comedy escorts sacred verities of French history and culture to the scaffold. Apr 1, 2019 Full Review Branyan Towe Loud and Clear Reviews Marie Antoinette has flaws, but still remains a good enough film with tremendous set and costume design. Add in Kirsten Dunst and her performance in the title role and you have something that a lot of audiences can enjoy Rated: 3.5/5 Jul 29, 2024 Full Review Sean Axmaker Stream on Demand ... a rock and roll version of history, scored entirely with pop music and reflected through Coppola’s modern sensibilities, at once compassionate and savagely critical of the kids on the throne. Apr 8, 2023 Full Review Ray Pride Newcity Marie becomes indiscreet, a party girl, drenched in the decadence of gowns, wigs, shoes, champagne and all manner of cookies and cake.. Coppola is self-aware: as a child of privileged American movie royalty with many friends in fashion... Rated: 8/10 Aug 18, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews

Alexsander F Muito bom o filme, achei o tom de comédia bem agradável, um retrato satírico da aristocracia daquela época, viva a Revolução Francesa. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/17/24 Full Review Jorge S O filme se arrasta no começo, engata uma segunda marcha no meio e quando se pensa que vai tirar o pé 👣 do freio... acaba. Nem rolaram as cabeças!!! Maria Antonieta merecia um final melhor 🤡 Rated 2 out of 5 stars 09/21/24 Full Review Bahad j I really liked how the actors got into their roles so well. I think that people watching the movie and other people really liked the fact that he is so naturally and elegantly immersed in his role. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/12/24 Full Review Michael V Rumor. Scandal. Sex. Fame. Revolution. Marie Antoinette is a 2006 historical drama film written and directed by Sofia Coppola 🇫🇷 It’s good 🙂 Worth a watch. I’d recommend it if you like this genre 👍🏼 A lavish and sumptuous production which moves along at a slow yet mesmerising pace… The retelling of France’s iconic but ill-fated queen, Marie Antoinette. From her betrothal and marriage to Louis XVI at 15 to her reign as queen at 19 and ultimately the fall of Versailles. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 07/25/24 Full Review Johann D. M This historical drama retelling written and directed by Sofia Coppola is based on the life of Queen Marie Antoinette in the years leading to the French Revolution, from her betrothal and marriage to Louis XVI to the end of her reign as queen, and ultimately the fall of Versailles. Even though the term 'anachronistic' may perfectly describe the entire concept of the film, from the modern dialogues to the punk-rock soundtrack that is a little disruptive, but has the specific purpose to attract younger audiences, this film is definitely not acknowledged for its plot and character development. The costumes, however, are the jewels of the crown, truly worthy of Milena Canonero's Academy Award, given how delightful, colorful, numerous and stunning they are. Kirsten Dunst is captivating and exquisite, probably because of how Coppola directed her. But the story prefers style over substance, which is sad. It could have been better, if it had been more accurate and more engaging. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 08/12/24 Full Review reka ! eu vi esse filme quando eu tava triste e por isso não prestei muita atenção, talvez eu deva rever e depois falo aqui o que eu achei Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 11/05/23 Full Review Read all reviews
