Roman Holiday Ratings & Reviews
WindUp
January 5, 2025
Almost gave up on this one midway but I'm glad I stuck with it. The scooter sequence and the big fight on the barge are worth slogging through the predictable complications. The bittersweet parting scene is a nice setup for the bittersweet finish.
Filmspotting
Adam Kempenaar
It's as if the close-up was invented for [Audrey Hepburn].
Refinery29
Patricia Karounos
Rome is the perfect backdrop for this royal-commoner romance (and war of wits).
For the Win (USA Today)
Cory Woodroof
This is as good as you've heard.
InSession Film
Zita Short
I never want to see Roman Holiday again and I regret the fact that I wasted so much time on it. I might put it on a list of my top 100 least favorite films but it would never be anywhere near a list of my favorite romantic films.
Keith & the Movies
Keith Garlington
...a wonderful story filled with good humor and a lovely romance.
Reel Film Reviews
David Nusair
...a somewhat overlong and exceedingly deliberate endeavor that undeniably grows more and more absorbing as it unfolds...
Film Frenzy
Matt Brunson
An utterly disarming romantic comedy. The "Mouth of Truth" scene is a genuine classic, but the film is packed with equally delightful interludes.
Edge Media Network
Frank J. Avella
Hepburn is a marvel, mixing deep pathos with a restless yearning. She also proves to be a gifted comic. I cannot praise her performance effusively enough.
FlickDirect
Allison Rose
The marrying of a classic movie with the most up to date technology makes this release a must-have.
Gone With The Twins
Mike Massie
None of the events are terribly thrilling or romantic, and the unhurried casualness with which they're all approached borders on boring.
The Hollywood Reporter
Milton Luban
With Gregory Peck and Audrey Hepburn turning in superb performances, Roman Holiday is 118 minutes of sheer entertainment.
ReelTalk Movie Reviews
Donald J. Levit
What a never-to-be-forgotten brief holiday it was, befitting one of filmdom's true regal princesses.
TIME Magazine
The newcomer named Audrey Hepburn gives the popular old romantic nonsense a reality it has seldom had before.
Variety
Variety Staff
[Wyler] times the chuckles with a never-flagging pace, puts heart into the laughs, endows the footage with some boff bits of business and points up some tender, poignant scenes in using the smart script and the cast to the utmost advantage.
Chicago Reader
Dave Kehr
Wyler lays out all the elements with care and precision, but the romantic comedy never comes together -- it's charm by computer.
Decent Films
Steven D. Greydanus
Hepburn is utterly beguiling in her star-making role opposite Peck in a delightful romantic comedy about a poised young princess of an unspecified European country who spends a magical day with an American reporter playing hooky.
New York Times
A.H. Weiler
Mr. Wyler and his associates have fashioned a natural, tender, and amusing yarn about the heiress to the throne of a mythical kingdom who is sick unto death of an unending schedule of speeches, greetings, and interviews attendant on her goodwill tour...
Austin Chronicle
Marjorie Baumgarten
Audrey Hepburn won an Oscar and popular acclaim in this story of a princess who breaks free of the palace and has a fling with Gregory Peck.
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
The film itself is a classic of romantic wish fulfillment, exactly the sort of beautiful lie that Hollywood specialized in.
