Jessica Kiang Variety Anna Cazenave Cambet’s sweeping, moving “Love Me Tender”... aims at the heart of this pervasive ideology of hypocrisy and unreachably high expectations, and largely thanks to a rivetingly radiant Vicky Krieps, hits its mark with painful accuracy. May 26, 2025 Full Review Zachary Lee RogerEbert.com The runtime doesn’t justify the ways Cambet circles around the same repeated themes. May 26, 2025 Full Review Jordan Mintzer The Hollywood Reporter If the movies she stars in aren’t all memorable, Krieps is usually memorable in all of them. That’s certainly the case with Love Me Tender. May 20, 2025 Full Review Emma Kiely Collider With a remarkable performance from Vicky Krieps, who rarely gets a second away from the camera, Love Me Tender is worth seeing if just to witness a startling talent give herself over completely to a part. Rated: 7/10 Jul 7, 2025 Full Review Sarah Manvel In Their Own League Ms Krieps makes Clémence’s journey through the stages of grief both the story of unimaginable loss and a desperate hope for a new beginning.
