Chevalier (2022) | Rotten Tomatoes (1) David Stratton The Australian This was a compelling period of French history and the narrative composed for the film makes the most of the volatile backdrop. Rated: 4/5 Aug 14, 2023 Full Review Chevalier (2022) | Rotten Tomatoes (2) Sandra Hall Sydney Morning Herald Both Robinson and Williams share a particular interest in this unfairly neglected episode in black history, but they never allow polemics to overwhelm the narrative. Rated: 4/5 Aug 3, 2023 Full Review Chevalier (2022) | Rotten Tomatoes (3) Whelan Barzey Time Out There are hints of greatness in Chevalier, but it’s worthier of polite applause than a standing ovation. Rated: 3/5 Jul 25, 2023 Full Review Chevalier (2022) | Rotten Tomatoes (4) Jorge Ignacio Castillo The Canadian Crew A glorified soap opera atrociously written, Chevalier is at its best when generating unintended laughs. Rated: 2/5 Jun 13, 2024 Full Review Chevalier (2022) | Rotten Tomatoes (5) David Nusair Reel Film Reviews ...a fairly generic biopic that never quite becomes as compelling or spellbinding as its subject matter might’ve indicated... Rated: 2.5/4 Dec 30, 2023 Full Review Chevalier (2022) | Rotten Tomatoes (6) Grant Watson Fiction Machine It is more accomplished than Bernard Rose’s Immortal Beloved (1994), but at the same time no one should expect anything approaching Miloš Forman’s Amadeus (1984). Rated: 6/10 Oct 5, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews
