    The amount of people asking Johnny Depp to kill himself in these reviews is unreal. Instead of acting like parasites on a movie’s ratings take your rants and hatred to Twitter where it has always belonged.

    JEANNE DU BARRY is a handsomely mounted period romance but lacking in the romance department as Maïwenn & Jonny Depp have little chemistry between them. Depp’s french is distractingly comical and whatever dialogue he does have is not sufficient enough to flesh out his character or the story. Gorgeous looking costumes but an empty history lesson with very little to care about.

    “Fu durante il regno di Giorgio III* che i suddetti personaggi vissero e disputarono. Buoni o cattivi, belli o brutti, ricchi o poveri, ora sono tutti uguali.” ~ Barry Lyndon (Stanley Kubrick, 1975) ••• Un buon dramma in costume che come tutti i drammi in costume mi fa desiderare di conoscere meglio la Storia. Tuttavia di per sé non è un film particolarmente interessante o innovativo sotto alcun punto di vista, soprattutto se si prendono a riferimento le “simili” vicende…

    Un retour tant attendu par le public et notamment par moi de Johnny Depp. Et qui plus est pour un rôle intégralement joué en français ! Nous voyons vraiment un enfant jouer et prendre plaisir. Voilà ce qui fait la richesse d’un film après des temps difficiles pour lui, Johnny, le roi est de retour.

    filmi sevmekle sevmemek arasinda gidip geldim. bi yanim jeanne’e hayran, bi yanim filme kizgin. jeanne’in geri geri gidisi, o koccaa etekle, kralin onunde tokezleyerek cikisina saray donup kaliyor ama o guluyor. protokol denen seyi tek bi hareketle yakip yikiyor. kralin suratini gormeniz lazim. adam resmen asik oluyor o an erkek kiyafeti giymesi 💜💜 korselerin icinde bogulan kadinlarin ortasinda jeanne at sirtinda gomlekle geziyor. sarayli kadinlarin bakislarini izlemek basli basina bi zevk verdi bana. ama film jeanne’e haksizlik ediyor bence 😡…

    Un film che partiva con ottime premesse, purtroppo perse nel continuo. La storia della du Barry poteva essere gestita meglio, vista la sua rilevanza storica e politica, e non appiattire il film su una visione da “Cosmopolitan”. Anche se visto da un punto di vista sentimentale, il film ha pochi pigli interessanti e a volte cade nel banale. Tuttavia, il film è fortunato, infatti, senza scenografie mozzafiato (il set la fa da padrone essendo Versailles) e costumi incredibili, non avrebbe…

    Pas du tout représentative de l’histoire de Jeanne du Barry. Elle n’était pas cruche comme ils la représentent dans le film et pourquoi un roi FRANÇAIS est représenté par un acteur ANGLOPHONE ???? Les propos de l’actrice sont catastrophiques sur Jeanne du Barry. Sans parler du fait, que le film a énormément d’erreurs historique. Je mets juste une étoile parce que les plans sont jolis

    Everyone is a whore. Why does every act like a child, especially those women who dislike the man cherecter I can’t take them seriously. The acting sucks all around. Usually a fan of Johnny Depp but he really does suck in this, he only has one facial expression during 99% of the movie.

    it’s clear the central aim of this film is aesthetics / the director’s vanity above everything else. hated mostly everything, but especially the part where she’s gifted a Black child like some exotic accessory. there’s nothing worthwhile being said or shown 👎🏽

    Che dire Johnny Depp sempre eccellente, anche l’attrice che interpreta Jeanne entra benissimo nella parte, finale molto commovente. È stato molto bello approfondire questa storia infatti Madame du Berry fu realmente l’ultima amante del re, la favorita, dal 1768 e fu colei che gli rimase accanto fino alla morte nel 1774. Anche la parte finale in cui il narratore esterno ci rivela le sorti che ebbe Jeanne dopo la morte del re e dopo l’avvento della rivoluzione francese molto bella. Mi è piaciuta molto l’interpretazione del Delfino e del domestico Zamor

    Movie #328 Review: I discovered this film while reviewing Johnny Depp’s filmography with Jaime for our podcast, Depp Dive. Nearing the end of our series, we weren’t particularly excited for this nearly two-hour, French-language period piece. However, watching it reminded me of Barry Lyndon, which was a major inspiration for Maïwenn, the film’s director, co-writer, producer, and star. We had also read the synopsis before hitting play. The basis of this film is following Jeanne. We see her when she’s…

    Didn’t think I could withstand Monsieur Depp for any prolonged stretch… I was so wrong I do not like fades to black and I adore Benjamin Lavernhe’s in this. I like this while I think it lacks some visual courage.

    Jeanne arrives at Versailles and somehow ends up winning the King of France. I walk into a room and forget what I went in there for. Clearly, ambition means different things to different people. But I have to give Jeanne credit: before being a woman, and before opening her legs for the king, she’s a mother. And once she has the power, she uses it to secure the best possible future for her children — their education, their social position, their opportunities. Jewelry for herself, a future for them.

    The first third is very reminiscent of Barry Lyndon in the way that she used her talent and charm to climb social ranks. Ending was so powerful with the formality’s and the friendship on display while the king died. On the downside I wish the movie was more focused on her instead of the king but I guess that is period accurate as women likely didn’t matter as much back then. Casting for Jean du Barry could’ve also been better, maybe prime Natalie Portman.

    Jeanne du Barry is a difficult movie to review because it’s certainly spectacular and beautiful, but many awkward choices coupled with key elements missing made the whole thing feel quite shallow. If I were to rate this solely on the cinematography and production design I’d give it five stars. In my humble opinion this has some of the best modern cinematography I’ve seen in a long time. In particular the grand scenes at court and many of the interiors. You…
