Impromptu Reviews
Goatdog's Movies
Michael W. Phillips, Jr.
It's mildly funny, mildly dramatic, and well-acted enough.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
A disorganized, confusing but amusing biopic.
Austin Chronicle
Kathleen Maher
As a salon full of characters, Impromptu provides great fly on the wall fun.
Apollo Guide
David Conner
A rather conventional romantic comedy, with the requisite plot devices to provide obstacles for the would-be lovers, but the story is well told.
Creative Loafing
Matt Brunson
Most of the hearty laughs are packed into the first half, but the more focused second part maintains interest as it cannily explores the topic of role reversals.
New York Times
Janet Maslin
Anna Massey, who appears fleetingly as Sand's mother, offers a demonstration of how to make an overpoweringly fine impression in only a few minutes' time.
Rolling Stone
Peter Travers
Despite all this assembled talent, the film stubbornly refuses to come to life.
Washington Post
Hal Hinson
A blissfully high-spirited romp about the circle of writers and musicians in 1830s Paris.
Washington Post
Desson Thomson
Director James Lapine pushes the story to its entertaining fullest, exuding a period-costumed sense of fun.
Deseret News (Salt Lake City)
Chris Hicks
All the primary players are wonderful.
Southern Voice (Atlanta)
Terry Francis
Pure pleasure.
El Nuevo Herald (Miami)
Rene Jordan
Impromptu is such an absurd film, so costly and very obviously destined for complete failure... [Full review in Spanish]
