The Tiger and the Snow proves Roberto Benigni's antics are bizarrely ill-suited for a film seeking to strike the unwieldy balance between romance, comedy, and wartime drama.

Roberto Benigni here plays out a madcap tale of romantic obsession against the backdrop of the Iraq invasion. The results are neither profound nor funny. Jan 4, 2007 | Full Review…

This film, one of the worst of 2006, almost has to be seen to be believed -- a comedy about a man who goes to Iraq, and, amid a string of comic misadventures, tries to save the life of his love, who has been gravely wounded in a bombing. Dec 29, 2006 | Rating: 0/4 | Full Review…

Like Life Is Beautiful, The Tiger and the Snow incongruously offers sharp laughs and touches of tenderness amid moments of drama and danger. Dec 29, 2006 | Rating: B+

Shameless, utterly predictable and grimly unfunny nonsense. Dec 29, 2006 | Full Review…

Perhaps a greater passage of time was needed to provide a more effective historical perspective, but Tiger has a bigger problem with a dramatic structure that sags conspicuously in the middle, never to completely correct itself. Dec 29, 2006

Unlike the pre-TV world of concentration camps seen in Life is Beautiful, the Iraq war is something we are all directly familiar with. Jan 3, 2007 | Full Review…

As a writer and director, Benigni's off-the-wall originality is striking--but sometimes he goes too far. Jan 2, 2007 | Full Review…

Chaplinesque Italian comedian Benigni's valentine to love is an anti-war film without political bite but full of winsome charm. Dec 30, 2006 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

Benigni can't even be bothered to get the chronology or the details of the American occupation right, and his keen visual sense isn't enough to save him: Benigni's artfully composed images are as empty as his political convictions. Dec 29, 2006 | Rating: 1.5/4 | Full Review…

He certainly never shuts up, and he never stops joking; he's a neurotic narcissist to whom a war and a country's misery mean little except how they affect him personally. Dec 29, 2006 | Rating: 1/4

It's mostly Benigni jumping around and waving his hands like he always does.When the occasional sobering tragedy strikes, it has little impact because the groundwork for it has not been properly prepared. Dec 29, 2006
