Reviews provided by RottenTomatoes
Farran Smith Nehme, New York Post: The film has a nice sense of female friendships' emotional depth. Read more
Rex Reed, New York Observer: The New Girlfriend is a funny, delicate, subtly flavored dish deliciously prepared by Francois Ozon - idiosyncratic and unforgettable. Read more
Justin Chang, Variety: Anais Demoustier and Romain Duris give beautifully controlled performances in Francois Ozon's delectably entertaining new film. Read more
Mike D'Angelo, AV Club: As recently as a year ago, when the film premiered on the festival circuit, it would have been hard to predict how timely it would seem today. Read more
J. R. Jones, Chicago Reader: Duris in drag looks like a refugee from the New York Dolls, but his character aspires to nothing more than life as a bourgeois, pearl-clad mom. Read more
Michael Phillips, Chicago Tribune: It's less than it should've been, and a little mild. But Ozon makes it glide with confidence, in or out of heels. Read more
Tom Long, Detroit News: A swirl of gender confusion, "The New Girlfriend" tosses all the he/she/we question marks it can find in a tale of contemporary confused sexuality. Read more
David Rooney, Hollywood Reporter: A delectable riff on transformation, desire and sexuality that blends the heightened reality of melodrama with mischievous humor and an understated strain of Hitchcockian suspense. Read more
Gary Goldstein, Los Angeles Times: Although at times amorphously told and genre non-specific - Dark comedy? Soapy drama? DePalma-esque thriller? - the film holds interest as it often defies expectation and juggles its bold, complex emotions. Read more
Stephen Holden, New York Times: "The New Girlfriend" never pretends to be more than what it is, a delicious and frothy fantasia with a teasing erotic frisson. Read more
Tirdad Derakhshani, Philadelphia Inquirer: Exceptionally graceful and accomplished, Ozon's film challenges our received notions of normalcy, intimacy, and love. Read more
Tom Keogh, Seattle Times: The rules governing desire are nonexistent in "The New Girlfriend," an unusual work of psychological mystery sans thriller elements but with a subtle dose of comic satire. Read more
Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle: There's a cruel comedy lying in wait for these characters, but their creator is protecting them. Read more
Cath Clarke, Time Out: Virginia, intensely vulnerable but full of self-confidence, is one-of-a-kind. Read more
Serena Donadoni, Village Voice: Ozon sacrifices his sharp portrayal of grief and rebirth to clumsy convention. Read more
Alan Zilberman, Washington Post: In Ozon's confident hands, "The New Girlfriend" has moments that juxtapose gentle humor and surprising depth of feeling. Read more
