Уйти не прощаясь (French Exit)

Не знаю что это за Азазель и с чем его нужно употреблять, но синопсис (а также присутствие Пфайффер и кота) настраивает на позитивный лад. Это еще и экранизация автора Братьев Систерс.

FRENCH EXIT is a bit of a mess! But Michelle Pfeiffer holds it together beautifully

Aseem Chhabra @chhabs

#MichellePfeiffer is fabulous as an eccentric high society New York City widow who heads to Paris with her son (#LucasHedges). Poignant film with touches of wicked humor!

Alan French @TheAlanFrench

Really dig Michelle Pfeiffer in #FrenchExit. Outside of her, I can pass on the rest of the film. She makes the film passable for sure but the rest doesn’t come together for me.

Michael Wachowiak @mikewachowiak

#FrenchExit is at its best when it’s a character study and less plot driven. There’s a rainy day to a lot of it, and Michelle Pfeiffer plays every single note perfectly. Particularly in the scenes between her, Lucas Hedges, and the hysterical Valerie Mahaffey.

Frank J. Avella @Fjaklute

“Michelle Pfeiffer, in a performance for the ages, makes an indelible mark. Her Frances is an instant cinematic icon.

Kevin Jacobsen @Kevin_Jacobsen

#FrenchExit: Took a few beats to lock into the film's highly specific tone but so wonderfully acidic. This is a role Michelle Pfeiffer was born to play, dry and glamorous with the kind of Old Hollywood stardom we don't see anymore. Valerie Mahaffey is also a hoot and a half.

1/5 от Guardian

3/5 от Дэвида Эрлиха

Variety

Yes, “French Exit” blisters amid the rarefied air of Tom Wolfe or Whit Stillman, but it’s nicely cut with the schadenfreude of “Schitt’s Creek.”

Jacobs and deWitt wisely opt for wry satire instead, delivering to Pfeiffer the role she’s been lacking all these years: not quite a diva, but an elegant, entitled and wickedly articulate socialite.

IndieWire B-

a hyper-literate Aki Kaurismaki comedy one minute, and the silliest thing that Whit Stillman never made the next. Its best stretches invariably split the difference, such as the cold-as-dry-ice bit where Frances and Malcolm discover that cruise ship morgues are a lot busier than you’d imagine. The rest of it is watched with a blank stare.

The Guardian 1/5

A misjudged performance from the star is one of many bum notes in an irritating and indulgent story of rich people becoming less rich

THR

A mostly satisfying feast for Pfeiffer fans.

Slant 2.5/4

French Exit Is a Wry, Off-Kilter Comedy Undone by Sentimentality

The Film Stage B+

Michelle Pfeiffer is Brilliant in the Surrealist, Melancholic Comedy French Exit
