IndieWireEric KohnMay 26, 2014
By exploring a narrow scenario from one chapter of Kelly's life, Grace of Monaco plays like fragments of an uncompleted biopic that's been art directed within an inch of its life. Read full review

Time Out LondonDave CalhounJun 3, 2014
Grace of Monaco could have been a camp delight, but it feels too much like a stodgy, outdated television movie to work even as kitsch. Read full review

CineVueJohn BleasdaleMay 26, 2014
The film isn't just bad - it's awful - ineptly directed (Olivier Dahan), terribly written (Arash Amel) and bafflingly acted by an assortment of miscast faces. Read full review

HitfixGuy LodgeMay 26, 2014
A hilariously ham-handed attempt to dig beneath the Kelly mystique, only to find further foil-wrapped layers of mystique beneath. Well, maybe not mystique so much as a perfumed blankness. Read full review

The PlaylistOliver LytteltonMay 26, 2014
Rarely competent, unintentionally hilarious and borderline reprehensible in both its politics and its take on gender roles. Read full review
