What to Know

Critics Consensus

Mr. Malcolm's List references countless Regency romps without particularly distinguishing itself from the pack, but it gently entertains as a diversely-cast ode to Jane Austen's works.

Linda Marric The Jewish Chronicle Of course it’s all very unoriginal but that’s kind of the point. In fact there is something courageous about a film which doesn’t purport to be anything beyond the well-established genre it seeks to emulate. Rated: 4/5 Aug 30, 2022 Full Review Wendy Ide Observer (UK) It’s pleasant, frothy, unapologetically by-numbers stuff. Rated: 3/5 Aug 28, 2022 Full Review Kevin Maher Times (UK) Lightweight, ephemeral and almost meaningless, this Regency-era romance is consistently saved by the stellar presence of Zawe Ashton... Rated: 3/5 Aug 26, 2022 Full Review William Stottor Loud and Clear Reviews Mr Malcolm’s List might be drenched in predictability, but its diverse cast, sweet romance and comedic zing give this Jane Austen-style story a much-needed edge. Rated: 3/5 Aug 13, 2024 Full Review Paul Klein FILMHOUNDS Magazine It's cliched for sure, but it's the sort of film that many will return to for comfort and will be discovered over and over. A truly delightful diversion. Rated: 4/5 Jul 5, 2024 Full Review Zach Youngs InSession Film The story beats are very familiar and there are parts that can drag, yet Mr. Malcolm’s List is a delightful film.
