Critic Reviews for Vidal Sassoon: The Movie

All Critics (35) | Top Critics (21) | Fresh (21) | Rotten (14)

  • I could have done with something a little more critical than this polished, adulatory film, which comes over like a curtain raiser to be shown at a gathering of his 10,000 employees worldwide.

    Anthony Quinn

    Independent (UK)

  • The story of "the greatest hairdresser who ever lived" isn't given enough historical context: one of his Sixties contemporaries, designer Mary Quant, is on hand to reminisce, but the rest of the decade is merely a blur in the background.

    Marc Lee

    Daily Telegraph (UK)

  • If Vidal The Movie were a haircut, it would be a peek-a-boo fringe. Now you see him, now you don't.

    Charlotte O'Sullivan

    London Evening Standard

  • Though you'd never have anticipated it, Vidal Sassoon emerges as an genuinely likable figure of some substance in this admittedly hagiographic documentary.

  • Would have been more effective as an hour-long TV doc.

Audience Reviews for Vidal Sassoon: The Movie

  • Dec 02, 2011
    KInd of interesting, especially to show how boring hair is nowadays, but I didn't much care fo rthe subject and his strange, elocution-trained voice. The 80's Vidal & Beverley Sassoon TV series, with white teeth & orange tan was a low point.
