La grande séduction movie stills
Reviews provided by RottenTomatoes
Terry Lawson, Detroit Free Press: The best thing about Seducing Dr. Lewis is that, like the villagers, director Pouliot and writer Ken Scott seem to grow the story, and our affection for these characters, organically. Read more
Robert K. Elder, Chicago Tribune: Sails by on charm and confident character acting, even if it's navigating well-charted waters. Read more
Moira MacDonald, Seattle Times: You'll enjoy spending a little time with these people, as the film performs a low-key but irresistible seduction of its own. Read more
Ruthe Stein, San Francisco Chronicle: Seducing Dr. Lewis has its warm moments, but it suffers from fuzzy thinking, and that's no way to seduce anyone. Read more
Eleanor Ringel Gillespie, Atlanta Journal-Constitution: A genuine feel-good movie -- nothing memorable, nothing brilliant, but guaranteed to put you in a good mood. Read more
Wesley Morris, Boston Globe: Has a quick-thinking, screwball exuberance that doesn't strain itself. Read more
Lisa Schwarzbaum, Entertainment Weekly: There's shrewd wit to Pouliot's gentle, no-bull farce. Read more
Rick Groen, Globe and Mail: Pouliot's direction remains as taut as it began -- he's not above broad farce, but never dips too far into the maudlin well. Neither does the cast. Read more
Tom Maurstad, Dallas Morning News: A movie that reminds viewers benumbed by big movies of the joys of being small, of the deep laughs to be found just beneath a simple surface. Read more
Scott Foundas, L.A. Weekly: It's all fitfully amusing, thanks in large part to Bouchard's richly comic performance, but the movie is never very involving, and it overstays its welcome by a good, long while. Read more
Marta Barber, Miami Herald: Heart-warming fun it is, and heck, after getting to know its quirky people, it might not be that bad moving to Ste. Marie-la- Mauderne. Read more
Jami Bernard, New York Daily News: The makers of Seducing Doctor Lewis have a cute idea, but they milk it for all they can, sometimes to the point of embarrassment. Read more
Andrew Sarris, New York Observer: What follows is only moderately amusing and almost totally lacking in suspense, surprise or even uncertainly. Read more
A.O. Scott, New York Times: The first feature directed by Jean-Francois Pouliot finds humor in small-town idiosyncrasies, and also in economic hardship. Read more
Roger Moore, Orlando Sentinel: It's great to escape to these fantasy burgs, especially if they're as quaint and colorfully peopled as Ste. Marie-La Mauderne. Read more
Colin Covert, Minneapolis Star Tribune: Read more
Peter Howell, Toronto Star: A slow-simmering treat. Read more
Scott Foundas, Variety: Wears out its welcome some 20 minutes or so before the end, and leaves the nagging sensation that all this has been done before, and better. Read more
Mark Holcomb, Village Voice: Occasional hilarity ensues. Read more
Desson Thomson, Washington Post: So disarming, it's hard to say anything but good things about it. Read more
Ann Hornaday, Washington Post: Has the cozy, genteel warmth of a well-worn blanket. Read more
