Review of Winter's Tale (2014)

By Steven Rea (1,872) for Philadelphia Inquirer (3,920) on 14 Feb 2014

Winter's Tale is the kind of really bad movie that may still be quite easy to like, or even love, if you abandon all senses ye who enter here…

Review of Winter's Tale (2014)

By Willie Waffle (1,383) for WaffleMovies.com (1,380) on 14 Feb 2014

I thought Labor Day had the most ludicrous plot of the year, but it looks like freaking Hamlet next to Winter's Tale…

Review of Winter's Tale (2014)

By Kate Erbland (681) for Film.com (1,892) on 14 Feb 2014

Not every book should be made into a film and, as appears to be the case with Winter’s Tale, not every book can be (especially this one)…

Review of Winter's Tale (2014)

By Chris Bumbray (988) for JoBlo's Movie Emporium (1,959) on 14 Feb 2014

Hilariously ill-conceived. Works on a so bad it's good level…

Review of Winter's Tale (2014)

By Rebecca Murray (740) for About.com (1,470) on 14 Feb 2014

Winter's Tale is gorgeously shot and the scenery's absolutely stunning, but the physical beauty on screen is lost in a mushy love story that…

Review of Winter's Tale (2014)

By Chris Hewitt (2,086) for St. Paul Pioneer Press (4,360) on 13 Feb 2014

You'll either buy into the fairy-tale conventions of the story or reject them, and I suspect that die will be cast for most moviegoers within…

Review of Winter's Tale (2014)

By Dann Gire (642) for Chicago Daily Herald (649) on 13 Feb 2014

Winter's Tale offers grand overtures of imagination and romance with woozy visual effects that overpower the characters and render its Dan…

Review of Winter's Tale (2014)

By Lawrence Toppman (1,654) for Charlotte Observer (1,670) on 13 Feb 2014

That’s the problem with Winter’s Tale, which tries to cram too many conflicting stories into one space and ends up defying us to believe…

Review of Winter's Tale (2014)

By Michael Phillips (2,622) for Chicago Tribune (6,211) on 13 Feb 2014

Despite the actors, who at least get some swell clothes to wear, Winter's Tale is a bit of a soul-crusher itself…

Review of Winter's Tale (2014)

By Connie Ogle (690) for Miami Herald (3,319) on 13 Feb 2014

Unfortunately there’s far too little magic in this clumsy attempt to marry fantasy and realism; the film doesn’t have the grace or imagination…

Review of Winter's Tale (2014)

By Michael Nordine (446) for Willamette Week (516) on 13 Feb 2014

That almost none of this makes real-world sense isn't a problem…

Review of Winter's Tale (2014)

By Claudia Puig (2,080) for USA Today (4,117) on 13 Feb 2014

Lurching back and forth through time, Winter's Tale tries to blend the supernatural and the sentimental, with a synchronous nod to elements…

Review of Winter's Tale (2014)

By Chris Knight (998) for National Post (1,405) on 13 Feb 2014

While Farrell does his best with the wonky storyline, it's all he can do not to laugh out loud at some of its preposterous turns…

Review of Winter's Tale (2014)

By M. E. Russell (386) for Portland Oregonian (2,019) on 13 Feb 2014

The process of Farrell figuring out his divine purpose finally gets so convoluted and schmaltzy, it feels less like destiny and more like cruel…

Review of Winter's Tale (2014)

By Kenneth Turan (2,323) for Los Angeles Times (12,977) on 13 Feb 2014

Because it is fearlessly sincere and not totally successful, Winter's Tale is easy to mock…

Review of Winter's Tale (2014)

By William Bibbiani (788) for CraveOnline (813) on 13 Feb 2014

Winter's Tale is worse than Batman & Robin, and this time Akiva Goldsman doesn't have the excuse of 'I only wrote the screenplay…

Review of Winter's Tale (2014)

By A.o. Scott (2,100) for New York Times (5,786) on 13 Feb 2014

A thin line separates the magical from the preposterous, and by insisting so strenuously on its own magic, Winter’s Tale pitches helplessly…

Review of Winter's Tale (2014)

By Peter Howell (1,731) for Toronto Star (3,601) on 13 Feb 2014

Enduring this soppy muddle of twinkling stars, fluttering wings, refracted points of light and destiny-led swooners is like being forced to…

Review of Winter's Tale (2014)

By Kristin Tillotson (85) for Minneapolis Star Tribune (2,416) on 13 Feb 2014

Like the frozen expanses of its most dramatic settings, Winter's Tale is mostly hard, glittering surface…

Review of Winter's Tale (2014)

By Ty Burr (2,612) for Boston Globe (6,852) on 13 Feb 2014

Goldsman takes Helprin’s book — a work overflowing with events, ideas, characters, passions — and pounds away at it until all that’s…
