Peter Bradshaw Guardian Xavier Giannoli's latest movie is an unsatisfying satire on the subject of celebrity. Rated: 2/5 Aug 30, 2012 Full Review Kent Turner Film-Forward.com The prescient Network was way ahead of the curve, even predicting reality TV, while Superstar is just catching up. Rated: 2/4 Sep 17, 2012 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member Not a bad movie by any means but it fails to deliver in many ways and isn't as satisfying as other movies with this concept like the Truman show for instance. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member Interesting idea on how someone becomes famous without even wanting it and how media/public can go frenzy on that person without any real reason. Sadly the movie is too long and doesn't have much content. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Je suis pas forcà (C)ment pour les films avec fond et/ou forme, mais là j'ai vraiment pas compris ou il voulait nous emmener. Lapin compris... Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member This was both a poignant and funny piece that dissected the worlds view of celebrity. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/15/23 Full Review Audience Member Cousu à la corde d'amarrage. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Read all reviews
