Review For A Royal Affair
What a piece of work is this historical drama. Lisa Kennedy-Denver Post A Royal Affair covers plenty of stately ground, all in good time. Claudia Puig-USA Today A fascinating, stately thriller. Tom Long-Detroit News A crowned-heads soap opera that balances effectively between pomp and melodramatic circumstance. Ty Burr-Boston Globe Even appreciated simply as a little-known chapter of European history, it proves consistently engrossing, edifying and affecting. Ann Hornaday-Washington Post "A Royal Affair" is an engaging and entertaining film, one that might have been great, if only the history were different. Mick LaSalle-San Francisco Chronicle Perhaps there's only so much to be done with a costume drama about illicit affairs and would-be coups. Michael Nordine-L.A. Weekly Gorgeously photographed if familiarly constructed, it's more or less catnip for urban foreign film aficionados and the NPR set, breathing life into period piece lust and intrigue. Brent Simon-Shockya.com The characters in the story are interesting, even if they are not quite as interesting as the historical people on which the characters in this film are based. Robert Roten-Laramie Movie Scope In the immortal words of King Louis XVI -- or was it Mel Brooks? -- it's good to be the king. Matt Brunson-Creative Loafing Despite the presence of illicit sex, insanity, a smallpox epidemic and a climactic double beheading, this is a rather bloodless 'Affair.' John Beifuss-Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN) Arcel directs with sympathy for all three of the main characters and doesn't make pure villains of the others. Lawrence Toppman-Charlotte Observer It is certainly competent, lovely to look at, but leaves little lasting impression. Kimberley Jones-Austin Chronicle Sometimes falling in love can really change the world or at least the fate of a nation. Dan Lybarger-KC Active Chances are a movie about 18th-century Danish history might not be a grabber. But this one could have been ... Peter Keough-Boston Phoenix Slow moving factually based historical drama about political intrigue and sex among the royals in 18th century oppressive Denmark. Dennis Schwartz-Ozus' World Movie Reviews Whenever the film truly sings, it is almost entirely due to that electricity [between Mikkelsen and Følsgaard]. Tim Brayton-Antagony & Ecstasy ... content to allow its story fit the proper historical context, especially when the stakes include the future of an entire nation. Todd Jorgenson-Cinemalogue.com Steamy court intrigue, wild passion and the momentous decisions of charismatic visionaries have never had it better than this 18th Century Danish potboiler. Ron Wilkinson-Monsters and Critics The film is a showcase for Mikkelsen..., who is captivating as Caroline's brooding lover and a political power player. Sean Means-Salt Lake Tribune A tragic love story, beautifully told. Moira MacDonald-Seattle Times It's always a pleasure to see a movie give attention to the ideas and visions of its characters, but the drama is, at times, a little too dry and earnest to hit Dangerous Liaisons heights. Jeff Meyers-Metro Times (Detroit, MI)
