Season 1 Review: This is a star-studded, lavishly made drama that falls into that special niche: If it were any better, it would be worse. Read full review

Wall Street JournalNancy DeWolf SmithMay 21, 2015
Season 1 Review: For the most part, Grace of Monaco is a series of vignettes notable for odd scene hopping and stilted acting. But the ending is worth hanging around for. Read full review

Las Vegas WeeklyJosh BellMay 21, 2015
Season 1 Review: It’s not a particularly convincing storyline, nor does it offer much insight into Kelly as a person outside of this limited time period. Kidman’s aloof demeanor has a regal quality, but she fails to capture Kelly’s humanity (Dahan’s reliance on extreme close-ups is poor compensation). Read full review

Season 1 Review: Despite the best efforts of Nicole Kidman, who is operating way above the level of her material, this screwy fantasy nominally inspired by the lives of Grace Kelly and Prince Rainier doesn’t even make for a good fairy tale. Read full review

Season 1 Review: The resulting film is a mess. Driven by a weak, facile screenplay, the film is singularly shallow in both intellectual and emotional content. Read full review
