Frears' broader aim is to fully chart the daisy chain of consequences set in train by bad moral behaviour, a theme that has proved a favourite of his and which he prosecutes here with very satisfying results. February 2, 2011 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

There's something about the desperation of Jody that gives the film its most uncomfortable and surprising moments. Otherwise, it's a bit of a stroll down familiar paths. February 2, 2011 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

Frears offers us a film with a certain charm and a somewhat sarcastic humor that, however, greatly limits its access to the satire of British society that was the original comic. [Full Review in Spanish] May 7, 2020 | Full Review…

Tamara Drewe's self-proclamations of having blended "intelligent" British humour with black comedy slowly fritters away as the film plods towards its abrupt and wholly unsatisfactory ending. November 5, 2018 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

It sounds like a fun romp, and it should be a fun romp, but it isn't. Instead, it's tiring and plain silly, without a single plausible character. August 30, 2018 | Full Review…
