Here are review links for this film submitted by our members:

  • [New] | Laura Clifford @ Reeling Reviews
    • Excerpt: in attempting to redefine Cyrano, Schmidt has left Roxanne underwritten…the clear winner is Dinklage, whose heartbreaking performance goes a long way toward distracting from the film’s flaws.
  • Kenji Fujishima @ TheaterMania
  • Mark Hobin @ Fast Film Reviews
    • Excerpt: If you “hate musicals” then this production won’t change your mind.
  • MaryAnn Johanson @ FlickFilosopher.com
    • Excerpt: Peter Dinklage is wonderful, but this feels like a suggestion of a movie, not an actual one. It’s not romantic; there’s no humor, no absurdity. Its unpleasantness is as puzzling as it is inescapable.
  • Mark Leeper @ Mark Leeper’s Reviews
    • Excerpt: Cyrano is played by Peter Dinklage, and as a result, almost all the nose jokes are dispensed with in favor of remarks about his height. The film also does everything it can to make the nobility more repulsive.
  • Wesley Lovell @ Cinema Sight
  • Sarah Marrs @ LaineyGossip.com
    • Excerpt: Never have I seen a more spectacular Cyrano, as Dinklage communicates all the fiery temper, fierce pride, and hopeless, devastated love bottled up in a man who is never short on words but feels he can never say what he truly means to the person most important to him.
  • [New] | Mike McGranaghan @ The Aisle Seat
    • Excerpt: Joe Wright and his marvelous cast have made a stirring version of “Cyrano de Bergerac” that’s filled with passion and soul.
  • Jared Mobarak @ JaredMobarak.com
    • Excerpt: The [songs] grind the proceedings to a halt rather than augment the ample drama, action, and comedy. It’s a shame too because this isn’t a bad film.
  • Betty Jo Tucker @ ReelTalk Movie Reviews
    • Excerpt: Music, romance and poetry in CYRANO so beautifully blend in together on the screen with images that must be seen.
