It's a fascinating experiment, and proof that Jolie truly has directorial chops and an extraordinary eye for imagery.

Overview
Set in France during the mid-1970s, Vanessa, a former dancer, and her husband Roland, an American writer, travel the country together. They seem to be growing apart, but when they linger in one quiet, seaside town they begin to draw close to some of its more vibrant inhabitants, such as a local bar/café-keeper and a hotel owner.

The actors aren't unhinged enough for the scathing conceit, and the script is more of a mechanism than a revelation.
Richard Brody, New Yorker

The point to all this seems to be life is cruel and people are jerks, but sometimes very good-looking jerks. Deep.

What are the artistic purposes for this tedious collection of frowning, drinking, bickering, peeping and smoking scenes? "By the Sea" is long on perverse images but short on ideas.
Colin Covert, Minneapolis Star Tribune
Rotten
Pitt invests the vague, cranky relationship with his usual intelligence and restraint, but the movie is destined to rank with such celebrity-couple fiascos as Gigli (2003) and Shanghai Surprise (1986).
