Whatever the movie's challenges for viewers, I'm grateful that Serra made it.July 16, 2017
[Léaud,] remembered by film lovers as the young prince of the Nouvelle Vague, certainly gets you thinking about mortality. Story-wise, though, there's little here for viewers not big on French history.June 01, 2017
Serra has done his subject justice, transmuting the slow and steady march toward oblivion into an aptly imposing and unyielding work of art.July 14, 2017
One of the most lugubrious movie premises of recent years -- watch King Louis XIV, the Sun King, die slowly, in one dark room, over nearly two hours of screen time -- is here transformed into startling and fresh entertainment.April 03, 2017
Serra's ideas are serious but simple, and his movie seems to illustrate them in slow motion.July 12, 2017
Time and gangrene wait for no man, even if he is the eighteenth century's most powerful ruler.March 30, 2017
Sober, meticulous and entirely convincing in its depiction of period and mortality.May 24, 2017
At its most powerful it presents an allegory of the decline and fall and vanity of power, and an intimate look at the inevitable confrontation with mortality faced by kings and commoners alike.July 17, 2017
Serra's sad, stately, haunting addition to the slow-cinema genre doubles up as both an intimate study of the Sun King's death and a requiem for Europe's fading arthouse scene.July 14, 2017
This is less a re-creation of an historical event than a lament for the passing of traditional forms of cinema.July 14, 2017
A masterpiece.July 16, 2017
Flashes of comedy soon give way to an atmosphere of quiet, inevitable tragedy.
