[Rossy de Palma] brings her heroic profile and bubbly personality to this pleasant social satire by French writer-director Amanda Sthers.

Without being an excellent film, I recommend this new story. [Full review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 29, 2019

The dinner party scene had me laughing out loud the entire time! Who doesn't love a dinner party guest who's humor goes rogue!?!

| Original Score: 6.5/10 | Oct 30, 2018

The script tries to be funny but simply falls flat. And the premise the tale is built on is somewhat bizarre.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Sep 14, 2018

[The film] lacks depth but is nicely acted...and its exploration of Anglo-Saxon hypocrisy comes to a splendidly Gallic conclusion.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 23, 2018

The jokes could be sharper but de Palma ensures we are always on the side of her unlikely Cinderella.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 22, 2018

Yet it's ultimately hamstrung because all the characters, bar the wonkily charismatic Maria, are absolutely frightful.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jul 20, 2018

It's weirdly dated, and the Pygmalion plot device and metropolitan sexiness make it look like a movie that could have come out in the mid-60s.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jul 19, 2018

The film is a lightweight piece of Euro-fluff. Collette, De Palma and Smiley do enough, however, to prevent it from floating away entirely.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 16, 2018

Madame is a comedy that fails despite its star cast. [Full Review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jun 25, 2018

Madame raises some interesting points about the way society accepts happy endings. [Full Review in Spanish]

Even as the plot becomes a little pointed and farcical, it's thoroughly engaging, and has a surprising kick to it.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | May 4, 2018

The result is a film that works better as a comedy of playful entanglement and it's more romantic and social commentary oriented side. [Full Review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 3/5 | Apr 25, 2018

Typical comedy of errors. [Full review in Spanish]

| Apr 18, 2018

What starts out as a genial drawing-room satire on class and snobbery soon turns to a sly romantic comedy about the fantasy of romance and the crushing expectations placed on women.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Apr 4, 2018

It is painful to watch.

| Mar 26, 2018

As for the onscreen compatibility of the two talented actors, I've seen better chemistry at a middle-school science fair.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Mar 23, 2018

Part labored farce and part Cinderella story, this one-joke comedy stretches a thin premise to feature length.

| Mar 23, 2018

Madame aspires to more than it delivers but the film's failure to highlight its only worthwhile character makes it feel cluttered with irrelevant and at times annoying material.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Mar 22, 2018

The best that can be said is that the actors are all first-rate. The characters they play, on the other hand, may leave you feeling a bit down.

| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Mar 22, 2018
