Critic Reviews for De-Lovely
All Critics (155) | Top Critics (42) | Fresh (74) | Rotten (81) | DVD (12)
The results ... are staid, with re-creations of Paris in the Jazz Age and Hollywood in its Golden Age that are like waxworks in motion.
A wildly uneven musical biography of Cole Porter.
Porter's songs keep much the film afloat when, otherwise, it would have sunk. No matter how turgid or murky the movie becomes, when the music starts, you're flying.
Not inept enough to make the composer spin in his grave ... but not insightful or clever enough to please the old boy, either.
Entertaining. With more than 30 Cole Porter songs and an accomplished cast, how can it not be?
The story is sad. The music is witty, wary, impassioned and delightful. The balance is what makes De-Lovely special.
Audience Reviews for De-Lovely
Nice movie....
Super Reviewer
The music, so vividly emphasized, made this film more of a musical in itself than a biopic of Cole Porter, a man whose life was riddled with rumors, infidelities, and the his love for his soulmate, Linda. In short, it was almost a musical written by Oscar Wilde.
Super Reviewer
The acting and music are really good, but focuses way too much on his homosexual interests and weird-as-hell personal life. God bless Ashley Judd.
