Summer Hours Reviews
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
You won't find filmmaking more assured, commanding and evocative than that of Summer Hours in its opening scenes.
Christian Science Monitor
Peter Rainer
This is a movie that, for all its once-over-lightliness, stays with one. Given what it's about, and the intelligence of its makers, how could it not?
Denver Post
Lisa Kennedy
Summer Hours begins with an energetic treasure hunt. It ends reminding us how our lives are spent learning and unlearning what is to be treasured.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Steven Rea
Quietly and keenly observed.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
The actors all find the correct notes. It is a French film, and so they are allowed to be adult and intelligent.
Detroit News
Tom Long
A sweet pearl of a French film, Summer Hours may work as a perfect antidote for those seeking refuge from the summer blockbuster season.
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Calvin Wilson
It's a quiet but heartfelt film that has a lot to say about the allure of the past and the inevitability of change.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Phillips
The texture and flow of Summer Hours, the supple quality of the acting, the fluid camerawork isolating this or that observer while life flows on and domestic crises ebb and flow -- it all comes together as formidably detailed and easy-breathing cra
Decent Films
Steven D. Greydanus
Bound up in this haunting, moving meditation on a family in transition are implicit questions about globalization and the relationship of art, life and culture, the past and the future.
Film Comment Magazine
Frédéric Bonnaud
( ... ) Summer Hours is Assayas's best film set on home turf-the one that best puts things in perspective and loudly proclaims that one must know how to shed dead skin to go on living.
Variety
Derek Elley
Assayas' script is more allusive than demonstrative, with a distinct whiff of Eric Rohmer in its conversational blocks separated by fadeouts.
Film.com
Jonathan F. Richards
n Summer Hours, Olivier Assayas's gently provocative rumination on family and possessions, a trio of siblings wrestles with the problem of what to do with the old homestead once Mother is gone.
Hollywood Reporter
Ray Bennett
Evocative look at a family trying to decide what to do with its treasures.
At the Movies
Ben Mankiewicz
I think you should see Summer Hours.
At the Movies
Ben Lyons
This is a well constructed, tender, authentic story.
Washington Post
Dan Kois
If this enjoyable film is substantially more satisfying than those predecessors, it's also far less daring, a straightforward extended-family drama in the mode of last year's (more engrossing) art-house highlight A Christmas Tale.
Associated Press
Christy Lemire
Berling, Binoche and Renier all play off each other effortlessly, and Summer Hours makes you feel comfortable spending time with their family, too.
Chicago Reader
J. R. Jones
One realizes the real dramatic conflict is between the past, which must be honored, and the present, which must be lived.
New Yorker
David Denby
In the end, Assayas, shooting the film with relaxed, flowing camera movements, gives his love not to beautiful objects but to the disorderly life out of which art is made.
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
There is an exquisite, almost longing ebullience to Summer Hours that lasted long after I left the movie theater, many of its themes whipping through my head like a whirlwind.
