There's nothing much to the film besides its pretty-coolness. Fundamentally it goes nowhere and says nothing. Full Review |

Funny to me, but maybe not for everyone. Hell, I don't care, you're either in the category of the type of person who will like this or you're not. The choice is yours, but anyone pre-disposed to like this type of film will be happy they took the trip. Full Review |

Roman Coppola's directorial debut "CQ" is a treat. A fluffy delight. Full Review |

The movie plays out like a over-budget student film that lacks any of the competence and patience of an experienced director. Full Review |

3.5/5 |
Films about filmmaking are always risky ... However, in the capable hands of Roman Coppola, “CQ” becomes less a self-reflexive film and more of a documentation of a playful period in cinema. Full Review |

Love alone does not make a film watchable, no matter how much of it there is. Davies and company are up to the task, but the material is weak. Coppola has a lot of ideas; he just needs to find a more coherent, entertaining way of expressing them. Full Review |

...the sum of the parts equals largely a confused mediocrity. Full Review |

Mildly amusing but ultimately a sloppy, forgettable enterprise. Full Review |

3.5/5 |
It may not be art, but it's vastly more entertaining than anything Coppola senior has done in far too long. Full Review |

Pull[s] off the rare trick of recreating not only the look of a certain era, but also the feel. Full Review |

3/4 |
A film that is visually compelling and highly entertaining in an in-jokey sort of way. Full Review |
