Reviews for Automne
Elegantly stylized but emotionally strained.
06/08/06
I'm not sure this is a parody or not.
06/09/06
The cross-cultural backstory behind Autumn, a new French-language feature written, produced and directed by Ra'up McGee, is ultimately more interesting than what's seen onscreen.
06/13/06
Though Lucas and Jacob are lovely actors, you are not likely to care whose toes end up wearing tags.
06/09/06
Top CriticPic overall has the look, depth and emotional impact of a glossy magazine fashion spread.
06/22/06
Top CriticAutumn is as dry and lifeless as the leaves that fall to the ground in its opening images.
06/09/06
Slow, pretentious and proudly inscrutable.
06/09/06
Top CriticThe film looks great, but there's nothing under the high-gloss veneer.
06/09/06
McGee may well have strong films in him, but this one feels pretentious and gassy.
06/22/06
Top CriticAutumn is a nearly perfect satire of the pretentious French thriller. Unfortunately, the movie doesn't know it.
06/24/06
It's hard enough to care about why these people are striking fashion-model poses and shooting at each other without having to think about their poor, bruised inner children.
06/22/06
A colossal misfire, a tedious film noir wannabe.
06/23/06
Top CriticAn unsavory pastiche of the familiar and the overdone, flavored with faux-pungent, existential, interminable dialogue.
06/09/06
Hmm, has somebody seen Breathless? I guess so.
06/22/06
Top CriticUnfortunately, the story of Ra'up McGee's pigheaded perseverance is a better story than the one he filmed.
06/09/06
Top CriticThe cast is uniformly effective, from veteran Aumont down to relative newcomer Droukarova, who gives a muted but compelling performance.
06/08/06
What emerges is imperfect but shows a bravura talent with an engagingly elliptical storytelling style.
02/07/07
If you're in that select demographic of moviegoers who lose sleep over whether a synthesis of Kyzysztof Kieslowski and Quentin Tarantino could ever be forged, you can relax at last.
06/09/06
Top Critic[The] film begins with too much pretension but matures into a slinky, sexy piece of mood music.
