Not the greatest movie ever but a great performance by Stellan Skarsgård. The movie is beautifully shot and even though it leaves a lot to ones imagination (does she follow him to Berlin, etc.) it is worth watching.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars

A mildly interesting (if not at all memorable) character study that benefits from strong performances (especially Nina Hoss) and displays a mature understanding of the personal conflict faced by a self-centered man who wants to relive an old romance from his past.

Sadly this Colm Tibn-assisted effort has none of the warmth of his best work.

Wolff cuts a fascinating if frustrating figure, and you wish the film would spend a bit more time teasing out who she is, how she lives, and what she sees in a bore like Max.

Rated: B-

[An] emotionally inert drama about an author trying to reanimate the past.

Schlondorff's film is neither as slight as its premise promises nor as provocative as it might have been in a sometimes idiosyncratic version of a scenario we've seen before.

Rated: 2.5/5

Film Ireland Magazine

It's main story-line is a mess, too intellectual to tug at the heart strings and too wordy to accurately capture emotion.
