Apollo M @RT04543059 Aug 4, 2020 Another decent melancholic gay French drama film. Even how melodramatic and over-sentimental the story is, I can't quite catch the movie's flow and emotion here. Other than that, everything is satisfactory. See more Feb 24, 2020 A bit pointless, unnecessarily long. I’m sure there are better ways to discuss life, love, and death. See more dave d @RT34924333 Dec 26, 2019 For a movie that centers around a lot of sex, 'Sorry Angel', is remarkably safe and uniquely unlikable. French films are distinctly gorgeous in many forms, and this is no exception, but when we have a lead character who is profoundly mean and selfish with no character arc, it's particularly hard to find someone or something to root for besides the movie's end. At well over two hours, it's a slog. I found myself hitting the pause button quite a bit. There are distinguished performances and music to match, but there's a lot missing. Writer and director Christophe Honoré wedges in characters, unexplained, and they vanish nearly as quickly. In a movie this long, several secondary characters could have been fleshed out. It's clear, the filmmaker has vision and he's developed a decent story, but it doesn't quite come together. Perhaps a little less overindulgence and a bit tighter would have done it. Final Score: 4.9/10 See more Dec 16, 2019 I liked the character of the older man. But the movie is too long, too talkative, and the younger guy comes off as a jerk. See more Dec 6, 2019 melancholy but somehow romantic See more Jul 20, 2019 Fresh, poignant but with little lingering self-reflection. Essential in its Frenchness but also delving into gay attitudes that resonant regardless of a national border. See more Read all reviews
