Matt Zoller Seitz RogerEbert.com I’ve already forgotten most of the plot of this movie, but I could draw the house. Rated: 2.5/4 Jun 27, 2025 Full Review Stephen Romei The Australian It’s a sweet exploration of how new life can blossom in unanticipated ways – even Mephisto plays a part in this – and how new friends can be found in unexpected places. Aug 7, 2024 Full Review Carla Hay Culture Mix Grouchy cynics will dislike this comedy/drama that is old-fashioned and flawed but has a sweet nature and enough good performances to carry this film, which is about an unlikely English butler who breaks down social class barriers at a French manor. Sep 1, 2025 Full Review Sebastian Zavala Kahn Ventana Indiscreta Could it have been better? More cohesive, funnier, more original, and more energetic? Absolutely. But I'm still grateful that films like this continue to be made, especially for a market that doesn't favour their distribution. [Full review in Spanish]. Rated: 3/5 Aug 9, 2025 Full Review Frank Swietek One Guy's Opinion Though 'Mr. Blake' strives for a magical feel it doesn’t achieve, it’s an engaging enough divertissement....And, of course, it provides a nice change of pace for Malkovich, who’s always worth watching. Rated: B- Jul 31, 2025 Full Review Bill Newcott The Saturday Evening Post A gentle comedy/drama; a welcome cloud of friendliness where the good people are golden, the gruff people are merely misunderstood, and the troubled will soon find relief. Rated: 4/5 Jul 25, 2025 Full Review Read all reviews

Cathy D Delightful film. A touching story about people with real dialog, superb acting. No CGI or special effects needed. This is the kind of story Hollywood used to do, Not so much anymore. Go see it and don't let the subtitles put you off. Malkovich at his best. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/30/25 Full Review PC :) entertaining ...sweet ! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 07/03/25 Full Review Michael Completely charming with wonderful performances. is superb as Mr. Blake and Fanny Ardant, as usual, is fabulous. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 06/29/25 Full Review Eric Predictable but sweet, heartfelt and well-acted. Its ok to feel good especially now. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/22/25 Full Review Peg K This is a great movie! Loved it! They don't make movies like this one very often. Delightful and funny. You will leave the theater happy and wish you could be a part of their group. Malkovich was, per usual, outstanding! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/14/25 Full Review John T I thought this was a wonderful film and John Malkovich and Fanny Ardant are terrific, as they always are!
