Madame is less a baroque masterpiece than a subpar reproduction in a gaudy frame.
Variety
2.0
Its weirdly dated, and the Pygmalion plot device and metropolitan sexiness make it look like a movie that could have come out in the mid 60s.

Bogged down by blatant stereotypes, wan banter, obvious observations about the intersection of class systems, and rote wisdom about having the strengt ..

The labored Madame fails to rise to the level of sophisticated social satire to which it aspires.

Although Madame ultimately lands in the plus column, one wishes this stylish comedy of manners or lack thereof had a better idea of where it was going ..

brings her heroic profile and bubbly personality to this pleasant social satire by French writer director Amanda Sthers.
Chicago Reader
2.0
Yet its ultimately hamstrung because all the characters, bar the wonkily charismatic Maria, are absolutely frightful.
The Times
3.5
And refreshingly, their journey doesnt take the usual trajectory.
Shadows On The Wall
4.0
What starts out as a genial drawing room satire on class and snobbery soon turns to a sly romantic comedy about the fantasy of romance and the crushin ..
4.4
Sthers demonstrates a sure hand throughout, in casting and plotting, delivering a compelling tale of love and betrayal.
Toronto Star
3.0
The film is a lightweight piece of Euro fluff. Collette, De Palma and Smiley do enough, however, to prevent it from floating away entirely.
Flim List
1.5
Its refreshing to see a film unashamedly embrace primary colours in its cinematography, juxtapositioning some real vivid imagery with its dark narrati ..
Film Inquiry
1.5
The premise is fun and the Paris setting gorgeous, yet this would be Cinderella story with a twist prickles with contrivance.
1.5
Enter at your own peril. And also be warned that Collette issues one of the few complete performance misfires of her career with a very loud bang.
Herald Sun
2.0
The film lands where the tone of political rhetoric clearly is not these days: the mushy middle.

makes the audience believe rich people problems are worthy of sympathy, even if the character in question is far from likeable.
Straits Times

The best that can be said is that the actors are all first rate. The characters they play, on the other hand, may leave you feeling a bit down.
National Post

De Palmas aching Maria is all that lifts Madame to anything approaching watchable. As for mean girl Collette, she may never have had a more unrewardin ..

Action and laughs are aplenty, but it is the films overall tenderness and charm that will keep you smiling throughout the 104 minutes.

The sweet wine of the first act turns to vinegar by the time this short 91 minute film completes
Leepers Us
3.0
The result is a film that works better as a comedy of playful entanglement and its more romantic and social commentary oriented side.
1.5
Madame raises some interesting points about the way society accepts happy endings.

The dinner party scene had me laughing out loud the entire time! Who doesnt love a dinner party guest whos humor goes rogue!!
