“Parthenope” is a work of casual mastery; you could say that it’s great and it’s beautiful.

[Parthenope is] played by Celeste Dalla Porta, a great beauty indeed and an empathetic screen presence, though only fitfully does her character seem worthy of this movie’s epic enshrinement.

One of the most visually stunning movies that you will see this year. Better still this is the kind of film that will make you think - is it a dream, is it a foretelling, is any of it real? It is all up to the audience to work out.

Rated: 4/5

In Review Online

For all of its surface-level pleasures, the film often amounts to simply posing the facile question: “What if a woman were both beautiful and intelligent?” Will wonders never cease!
