“..works as well as it does, and emerges as something strange but fresh..”
“..Stephan Elliott's best film since Priscilla, Queen Of The Desert..”
“..Snappy and enjoyable..”
“..it doesn't know how much Coward to use, how modern to be, and where its real strengths are..”
“..flight, frothy entertainment..”
“..Enjoyable..”
“..clumsily written, surprisingly foolish and misdirected adaptation..”
“..a top-notch creation..”
“..a strained, quasi-spoof version of a 1924 play by Coward..”
“..a passable entertainment with some excellent zingers and puns, but it never fully bears its fangs..”
“..a film that could easily appeal to younger members of the family as well..”
“..a 1920s-era comedy of bad manners done by experts..”

saw this at TIFF - great film, wonderful soundtrack.
posted by Easy Virtue on Sep 12, 2008I have not seen the movie but judging how Jessica biel is trying to fit in and how it is a comedy and it is like the first monster in law, You have to see Easy Virtue.
posted by hola4 on Oct 28, 2008The imagery in this movie might be wonderful, the costumes and music well chosen - but the story is practically non-existent! This is a disappointing & boring movie!

posted by Oyhuhkik on Jul 14, 2009Extremely enjoyable, funny, yet deep. Great cast. Wise story when one goes beyond the mere sequence of events. I liked it a lot.
