Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
Rotten
History is long, life is short. It's certainly too short for the sort of overblown, melodramatic, pseudo-epic filmmaking Quebec's Jean Beaudin tried to foist on Francophone audiences two years ago.
John Terauds, Toronto Star
Rotten
Feels like a French Romantic novel shot without a trace of irony.
