Review of Florence Foster Jenkins (2016)

By Christopher Null (908) for Film Racket (579) on 19 Aug 2016

Streep and Grant are amazing both when they're apart and together, their earnest portrayals really lending gravitas to people who would otherwise…

Review of Florence Foster Jenkins (2016)

By Neil Rosen (146) for NY1-TV (146) on 18 Aug 2016

Streep is fun to watch, singing badly and being oblivious to her headache inducing sounds…

Review of Florence Foster Jenkins (2016)

By Frederic And Mary Ann Brussat (3,072) for Spirituality and Practice (3,072) on 17 Aug 2016

A multi-leveled love story about a passionate lover of music who can't sing…

Review of Florence Foster Jenkins (2016)

By Jim Lane (1,151) for Sacramento News & Review (1,702) on 17 Aug 2016

With the aid of director Stephen Frears, Streep rises above her text and manages to earn the sympathy Martin so clumsily demands for her…

Review of Florence Foster Jenkins (2016)

By Ken Eisner (445) for Georgia Straight (1,078) on 17 Aug 2016

[It's] a fact-based tale that doesn't have all that much to say. But it does have a very entertaining way of saying it…

Review of Florence Foster Jenkins (2016)

By Brandon Judell (340) for Huffington Post (170) on 16 Aug 2016

The film is a comedy with harrowing undertones…

Review of Florence Foster Jenkins (2016)

By Scott Tobias (1,684) for Uproxx (697) on 15 Aug 2016

The film's scolding tone, combined with the sentimental gloss of its ending, leaves an aftertaste that sours the screwball fizz of its cheerier…

Review of Florence Foster Jenkins (2016)

By Oliver Jones (215) for Observer (1,042) on 15 Aug 2016

While the film plays lip service (perhaps one too many times) to the healing power of music, it is really about how self-deception fuels and…

Review of Florence Foster Jenkins (2016)

By Allyson Johnson (161) for Cambridge Day (227) on 14 Aug 2016

There are small aspects of the film to celebrate, despite how overshadowed they are by the toneless script…

Review of Florence Foster Jenkins (2016)

By Jon Espino (144) for The Young Folks (1,024) on 14 Aug 2016

Despite the gorgeous set designs and attention to detail in every scene, this film still comes through as an ugly affair…

Review of Florence Foster Jenkins (2016)

By Allison Shoemaker (83) for Consequence of Sound (1,431) on 14 Aug 2016

Here's a sentence both deliciously implausible and totally true: Meryl Streep nearly has her own movie stolen from her by a cast member from…

Review of Florence Foster Jenkins (2016)

By Anthony Lane (1,079) for New Yorker (1,403) on 14 Aug 2016

The result is at once a work of efficient charm and, to those of us who treasured Frears in his more acerbic phase, a mild disappointment…

Review of Florence Foster Jenkins (2016)

By Matt Brunson (2,422) for Creative Loafing (2,337) on 13 Aug 2016

There's no denying that Streep is one of the greatest actresses of our (all…

Review of Florence Foster Jenkins (2016)

By Ron Wilkinson (582) for It's Just Movies (121) on 13 Aug 2016

Pitch perfect costumes and sets make this a delightful trip to 1944 New York and a sweet, if over imaginative, love story…

Review of Florence Foster Jenkins (2016)

By Al Alexander (533) for The Patriot Ledger (721) on 12 Aug 2016

Streep is game, but the material is just lame. And that's what makes Florence Foster Jenkins every bit as tone deaf as its subject…

Review of Florence Foster Jenkins (2016)

By Robert Yaniz, Jr. (46) for We Got This Covered (2,391) on 12 Aug 2016

Meryl Streep (of course) delivers yet another solid performance, but Florence Foster Jenkins gets a bit too lost in the balancing act between…

Review of Florence Foster Jenkins (2016)

By Noah Gittell (113) for Washington City Paper (500) on 12 Aug 2016

Streep never struggles to find the pitch, which almost makes the film's schizophrenic tone seem normal...maybe a song doesn't have to be perfectly…

Review of Florence Foster Jenkins (2016)

By Tim Grierson (1,482) for The New Republic (897) on 11 Aug 2016

Stephen Frears has made a likeable, affecting movie, but the film itself could benefit from a little of the tough love that Jenkins never received…

Review of Florence Foster Jenkins (2016)

By David Kaplan (436) for Kaplan vs. Kaplan (1,174) on 11 Aug 2016

Florence Foster Jenkins, without much in the way of pithy character development or historical context, comes off as a bit of a repetitive one-note…

Review of Florence Foster Jenkins (2016)
