This all sounds like the stuff of frothy period romance, but it comes off as dated, silly, and a little boring.

A dubious idea done in by Adrian Hodges's shallow script and Simon Curtis's clumsy direction.

[Williams] floats through the movie, perfectly capturing Monroe's way of rhythmically whispering through a song, looking softly frightened when uncertain, and not strolling so much as delicately oozing across the floor.

I believe the heart of the film, and the cleverest stroke of all, is Eddie Redmayne as Colin Clark, someone few of us will have heard of.

Williams is a more three-dimensional Monroe than the love goddess herself. The performance is both an eerie imitation and a touching revelation.

A great big slab of middlebrow fan-fiction.

Michelle Williams stuns in an Oscar-worthy performance in one of the year's best films.

It would be easy to overpraise this very slight little picture. But its heart is in the right place. Marilyn was now and then, here and there, kind of fun to be with.

Enjoyable yet somewhat thin.
March 04, 2013
A fun and tender tale of infatuation backed by two outstanding Oscar-nominated performances.

That's all familiar lore but, to his credit, director Simon Curtis lays out these separate ambitions and conflicting tensions with breezy dispatch in the early frames.

Curtis occasionally takes his characters out of Pinewood, but they're never really set free, either in physical or emotional terms.
