Reviews for Pleasantville
For a movie that makes such a big deal about color, Pleasantville is awfully black and white.

Overcomes its moralising and occasional pomposity with magical photographic effects.

An innovative and ethically provocative film about free spirits and those who would keep them down.

An inverted fish out of water tale - like taking a lion raised by sheep & putting it in the middle of the savannah.

A life-affirming film that throws itself into fairy-tale territory only to tell you that there is no such thing as a fairy-tale.

This is a film that spells out its points to the viewer, somewhat like a second grade teacher reciting the moral of the story.
