The Most Assassinated Woman in the World is not, by my estimation, a horror film, but a film about horror spectatorship; the joy of discomfort. Go to Full Review

5/10
The Most Assassinated Woman In The World isn't as fun as visiting [the London Dungeons], but it's entertaining and definitely worth a look on Netflix among the other dross. Go to Full Review
Joe Reid Decider 09/26/2018
As a murder mystery it's not quite the taut thriller you might want, but it's got style points to spare. Go to Full Review
Brenden Gallagher The Daily Dot 09/17/2018
Unfortunately, the story that the film tells is far less exciting than the art form to which it pays tribute. Go to Full Review

Most Assassinated has strong ideas that slowly fade as the film goes on. Go to Full Review
Anton Bitel SciFiNow 08/31/2018
much as the film is more concerned with backstage drama than with the gory scenarios that it so lovingly reconstructs and restages, its own narrative too is best viewed as a convenient platform for capturing all manner of rich background detail Go to Full Review

Wolfgang G 03/09/2023 The Most Assassinated Woman in the World ist ein Mysterien-Film von Franck Ribière… Paula Maxa ist die Hauptdarstellerin des Pariser Grand Guignol Theaters, die dafür berühmt ist, jeden Tag auf der Bühne ermordet zu werden… Der Film ähnelt einem Mysterien-Schauspiel, inszeniert in einer dunklen historischen Stimmung, untermalt mit einer gefühlsbetonten Musik von Keren Ann… Die schauspielerische Leistung ist gut, die Charaktere entwickeln sich ausgezeichnet… Ein guter Film, nach französischer Art, am meisten hat mich aber die Filmmusik von Keren Ann tief beeindruckt.

See more aimée c 07/28/2022 Even though this film was slightly creepier and darker than I was expecting, I still enjoyed watching it. I liked the historical setting of the film, although I don't think it was entirely accurate, especially in regard to Paula Maxa's story. At times I struggled to keep track of the different characters and the plot of the story, particularly nearer the end. However, I thought that Paula's hallucinations were handled well because they weren't just used as a device to further confuse and misdirect the audience – they were treated as a real consequence of the trauma she had gone through. There were definitely parts of the film I thought were unnecessary, as the plot occasionally didn't feel like it flowed very well, but for the most part I thought it was a good film with well-developed characters.
