Klimt Ratings & Reviews
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
Poor excuse for an unconventional biopic.
TV Guide
Ken Fox
Raoul Ruiz's absurdly overwrought phantasmagoria tries to recast the notorious Viennese artist's life as a kind of Divine Comedy: Inferno.
Film Journal International
Doris Toumarkine
The film, however provocative and full of eye candy, is really for hardcore art-house fans only.
New York Times
Stephen Holden
John Malkovich has virtually cornered the market on portraying aesthetes in the thrall of demonic visions. Klimt adds to his gallery of elegant monsters.

Beverly Berning
Klimt is a feast for the eyes and the mind.
San Francisco Chronicle
Leba Hertz
A good bio of any historical character has to have a compelling story, whether evil or good. Klimt appears to have had that story. I sure would have liked to know what it was.
Los Angeles Times
Kevin Thomas
Ruiz is terrific in evoking a heady atmosphere of ornate fin de siecle decadence, and Malkovich is ideally cast as a coolly intellectual, free-thinking, free-living aesthete...
Los Angeles Daily News
Bob Strauss
Klimt is obviously not a dumb film, but it is one big ol' fruitcake of a movie.
Boxoffice Magazine
Wade Major
Fact, fiction and chronology are juggled and blurred with such abandon that piecing it all together is bound to be a fruitless and frustrating effort.
L.A. Weekly
Ella Taylor
Ruiz is so intent on harnessing the painter to his own -- here, rather arid -- relativism that he never manages to convey the unfettered eros that brings crowds flocking to exhibitions of Klimt's work, even as critics hold their noses.
Chicago Reader
Jonathan Rosenbaum
[It's] an eyeful.
Reel.com
Pam Grady
A handsome film, but no amount of superior art direction or glittering surface can obscure the rigor mortis that engulfs the drama.
Chicago Sun-Times
Bill Stamets
An easy-viewing intro to a racy episode in art history.
european-films.net
Boyd van Hoeij
The combination of copious amounts of talk in several tongues and kinky games with scantily clad women at times makes Klimt feel like Eyes Wide Shut as directed by Manoel de Oliveira.
Variety
Jay Weissberg
Klimt falls into the philosophical conundrum it attempts to resurrect -- whether portrait and allegory can coexist.
