Some Kind of Beautiful

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Stranding Pierce Brosnan as a charmless cad, this tone-deaf romantic comedy is Some Kind Of something, but it definitely isn't beautiful.

Kate Muir Times (UK) Pierce Brosnan's recent career is not a thing of beauty. Yet again he has plumped for a mildly embarrassing, past-its-sell-by-date part. Rated: 2/5 Sep 24, 2015 Full Review Steve Rose Guardian One generation's silver fox is another's creepy old sex pest, and Pierce Brosnan doesn't have the comic chops, or even the facial expressions, to bridge the gap here. Rated: 1/5 Sep 24, 2015 Full Review Angie Errigo Empire Magazine We all like Brosnan and one is mortified to be ageist, but for this to have been even slightly romantic, funny or bearable the male lead -- and everyone else -- wanted to be much younger. Rated: 2/5 Sep 23, 2015 Full Review Madeline Joint One Room With A View This film has no idea what it is meant to be. Lessons In Love would be an insult to storytelling if it managed to tell any kind of story. Rated: 1/5 May 17, 2019 Full Review Matthew Anderson CineVue Much like giving someone the same present for Christmas, Easter and their birthday, no matter how this rom-com is gift wrapped the resultant 99 minutes of your life will feel as hollow and wasted as receiving an empty box. Rated: 1/5 Apr 6, 2019 Full Review Aaron Peterson The Hollywood Outsider Regardless of the cliches or predictability, Some Kind of Beautiful is a fun, breezy, and upbeat offering that allows Brosnan the opportunity to put a shine on that charming accent of his. Rated: 5/10 Oct 25, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews

Carlos T Filme: Ensina-me o Amor Assistido: 1-11-23 Elenco: @piercebrosnanofficial @salmahayek @jessicaalba @malcolm_mcdowell @duncanjoiner Modelo: #romance #comedia #comedy #drama Duração: 1h 39m Ano: 2014 Minha opinião: Temos aqui 3 atores renomados Pierce, Salma e Alba em um triangulo amoroso. Onde Pierce é um professor de poesia na faculdade, imagine oque é que dá esta receita. Um Don Juan. Onde Salma se apaixona e eles se casam. E tem sua cunhada Alba que entra na faculdade e tem Pierce como professor. O tempo passa até o momento que Alba engravida de Pierce. Isso se torna um grande choque para Salma que se separa de Pierce e ele fica com Alba. Mas o tempo passa e a carreira de Alba decola e Pierce vive mas uma vida de aposentado. Alba mais ausente, até que ela se revela que tem outro Afair. E Pierce é deixado. Prova do mesmo veneno. E como tudo isso acabará? Roteiro e enredo mais ou menos. Vale apena assistir? Para quem curte. Nota: 5,5 Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/15/24 Full Review Audience Member In light of terrific cast and premise, thought it would be great Saturday curl up together on the sofa ''date night.'' Solid acting but, oh, what messed up storyline(s). A little bit ''Alfie,'' and ''Dead Poet's Society'' - a little humor, a little poignancy and a whole lot of nothing. What a waste of always-watchable actor/actresses in what should should have have been a winner. As is, almost awful. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Will surprise you as plot will take unexpected turns which will be fantastical and over the top but always surprising Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Audience Member I read the tough reviews, so I wasnt expecting a great deal, but it was a really delightful movie with a few giggles along the way. Pierce Brosnan is an excellent actor, and carries this movie, along with Salma Hayek. Dont write this movie off if you want a light, romantic comedy to enjoy. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Such a confused movie. Maybe the script was good originally or someone called in a bunch of favours to get these actors involved but the end result was not good at all. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member A feel-good romantic comedy that was overall enjoyable. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Read all reviews
