Review For Starbuck | |
| Opportunities for sentimentality are everywhere, of course, but a comically oversized group hug is about as syrupy as things get. John DeFore-Hollywood Reporter An ingratiating comedy based on the premise that it takes a village to raise an adult. Stephen Cole-Globe and Mail A wonderfully sweet and poignant comedy that goes in all kinds of unexpected directions. Bruce Demara-Toronto Star A potent comedy of genetic chaos. John Anderson-Variety Scott deftly balances David's ridiculous mission with moments of real tenderness, making for several heartfelt moments that help carry you past the fact that such a situation couldn't possibly have the ending it does. Dave McGinn-Globe and Mail It's a concept with decent comedic potential, but the script from Martin Petit and Ken Scott (who also directs) rarely raises more than a titter. Niki Boyle-The List By taking a warm, witty approach to a rather outrageous situation, Canadian filmmaker Ken Scott helps us see past the plot holes to the underlying emotional resonance. Rich Cline-Contactmusic.com The film's French-Canadian director has much queasy fun confronting David's predicament and its effects on his tight-knit Catholic family and his pregnant fiancee. Philip French-Observer [UK] When are 'lovable' movie losers even more (allegedly) lovable? When they're all foreign and arthousey, of course! MaryAnn Johanson-Flick Filosopher If you are looking for a feel-good movie, Starbuck is the place to go. Grant Rollings-Sun Online Good fun and well performed with plenty of charm. Henry Fitzherbert-Daily Express Almost all the charm of the real story is lost through the contrivances and overacting. Peter Bradshaw-Guardian [UK] Moderately entertaining, but cartoonish and manipulative. Ashley Clark-Little White Lies Enjoyable, feelgood French-Canadian comedy enlivened by a witty script and a charming central performance from Patrick Huard. Matthew Turner-ViewLondon Sappy, sloppy Québécois comedy in which an enthusiastic sperm donor learns he has fathered more than 500 children. Robbie Collin-Daily Telegraph Its story is formulaic and undisciplined, while its tone is mildly reactionary and hugely sentimental. Ben Walters-Time Out Huard's charm offsets the plots contrivances, while Ken Scott's finely balanced direction humanises the high concept. Simon Kinnear-Total Film A French comedy that pitches for wit over broad comedy, it's successful in salting what could be a over-sugary confection with healthy dose of wryness. Philip Wilding-Empire Magazine Despite the way Starbuck jerks around (ha) with the character's growth, it's still satisfying to see this intriguingly bizarre situation play out... Liam Maguren-Flicks.co.nz ...a perfectly watchable yet decidedly uneven comedy/drama that benefits from Patrick Huard's consistently engrossing performance. David Nusair-Reel Film Reviews A movie that incidentally has nothing to do with coffee except for how over-caffeinated it sometimes feels. Radheyan Simonpillai-NOW Toronto | |
