Derek Malcolm London Evening Standard 11/02/2007
3/5
Interview is well-made but depends almost entirely on its acting. Neither of the two principals let it down, even when the screenplay isn't quite as sharp as it could have been. Go to Full Review Anthony Quinn Independent (UK) 11/02/2007
2/5
It pretends to be about the games of deceit that go on between men and women, but it's really just a squib on the culture of celebrity, and the cynical conclusion that's meant to pull us up short is feeble and silly beyond patience. Go to Full Review Tim Robey Daily Telegraph (UK) 11/02/2007
The friskiness of this pas de deux is something, and the acting duet enough of a selling point. Go to Full Review Mariló García Cinemanía (Spain) 07/17/2019

The resulting film is a boring hour-and-a-half of watching two immature adults sink down to the Lord of the Flies lowest for no reason and hurl bile and vitriol at each other. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Test T @TestTest1 10/01/2023 It's ok I suppose, but I would not want to watch it again. It's not really my kind of movie. See more jon c 07/13/2022 One interview is all it takes to know the real story Steve Buscemi stars and directs next to Sienna Miller based on an original Dutch film He stars as a political reporter Pierre assigned by his editor to interview a lovely actress Her name is Katya, and he's writing a puff piece attempting to figure out why she is the way she is They both go back to her apartment after a small car accident Katya has been the source of tabloid news but she may not be as dim-witted as most make her out to be Pierre manages to pick her brain as does she Over the course of one night they both learn about one another yet not in the most welcoming way Both of them have something to hide and to be ashamed of The film works brilliantly having both leads full of chemistry with the whole thing being confined to one space Not the sharpest screenplay but Miller and Buscemi bounce terrifically off of each other See more Demetris A @RT47166951 07/15/2020 Too redundant and convoluted and absurd.. See more Simon T @Bucksplit 05/15/2018 Steve Buscemi's Trees Lounge is one of my favourite movies: a charming free-wheeling low-key romance between an ice-cream salesman and a pubescent girl. This remake of a Dutch film by Theo van Gogh suffers from a lack of chemistry between Buscemi and Sienna Miller and an overworked script that puts plot before plausibility. It's a shame because it's never less than wàtchable and occasionally very good. See more 10/05/2017 The critics be damned, this is a great piece of work by Steve Buscemi and Sienna Miller is wonderful. See more 05/24/2016 Excellent acting, minimalist production (efficient, hence profitable). Confusing ending for some viewers? See more Read all reviews
