Parthenope Reviews
Deadline Hollywood Daily
Pete Hammond
Porta is a real find in the title role... The rest of the cast, including Oldman's brief but moving turn and Sandrelli's lovely work at the end, deliver lots of flavor.

Nicholas Bell
If this is meant to be Sorrentino's way of conceiving what a woman's empowerment should look like after a filmography littered with aging playboys, it's certainly a disconsolate, disappointing juxtaposition.
The Hollywood Reporter
David Rooney
Dalla Porta can't build a flesh-and-blood character out of a woman who seems as billowy and insubstantial as the movie that bears her name.
Next Best Picture
Matthew Turner
Making her on-screen acting debut, newcomer Celestia Dalla Porta makes for a convincing goddess. Still, she's saddled with a script that rarely allows her to even react to what's happening, let alone dig her teeth into anything emotional with resonance.
The Playlist
Gregory Ellwood
Paolo Sorrentino's last directorial effort, "The Hand of God," was a love letter to the port city, and, in something of a surprise, he taps that well once again for "Parthenope."
indieWire
David Ehrlich
Parthenope is considerably less dreamlike than some of the director's previous work, but vast stretches of the movie seem to exist in nebulous pockets of non-time, if only because of their weird unreality.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Bilge Ebiri
In creating a film about one beautiful person, Sorrentino reminds us that, in our memories, we were all beautiful once.
AwardsWatch
Martin Tsai
[Celeste] Dalla Porta is a revelation...she manages to carry an entire movie from start to finish.
World of Reel
Jordan Ruimy
incredibly vacuous and flat. It plays like a glitz model ad mixed in with faux-philosophical ruminations.
The New Yorker
Justin Chang
[Parthenope is] played by Celeste Dalla Porta, a great beauty indeed and an empathetic screen presence, though only fitfully does her character seem worthy of this movie's epic enshrinement.
Variety

An exquisite treatise on cinematic beauty
Collider
Emma Kiely
While Parthenope is in almost every scene, the movie never fully immerses us in her perspective. If anything, she is kept at a distance so we are always looking at her but never understanding her.
TheWrap
Steve Pond
"Parthenope" is a work of casual mastery; you could say that it's great and it's beautiful.
Loud and Clear Reviews
Philip Bagnall
Sorrentino nods to the poorer crowded area of the city but, when seen through the eyes of the always-stylish Parthenope, such scenes feel like an exercise in performative box-ticking.
In Review Online
Andrew Dignan
For all of its surface-level pleasures, the film often amounts to simply posing the facile question: "What if a woman were both beautiful and intelligent?" Will wonders never cease!
Subculture Entertainment
David Griffiths
One of the most visually stunning movies that you will see this year. Better still this is the kind of film that will make you think - is it a dream, is it a foretelling, is any of it real? It is all up to the audience to work out.
