This is not a poorly written story, but it is rather boring and predictable by times. It would be a mediocre movie except for the beauty, charm and great acting ability of Charlize Theron, who is wonderful to watch.... Full review

I don't know that it's really believable that a story like this could be true, but the people, scenes, and ideals are sure beautiful. Maybe the worst of times brings out the best in people, as this portrays. Touching and sad,... Full review

Saw this and even though the critics have been giving it some not so great reviews, we still decided to check it out. The film is outright beautiful and full of wit, that I am sure some of the critics missed.... Full review

Urban Cinefile
The tension between wish-fulfilment and guilty moralising gives the film an interesting self-awareness: if the characters are knowingly participating in a sentimental fantasy, so is the filmmaker. Even at its most ridiculous it's a personal project for its writer and director John Duigan, whose preoccupations aren't those of the average 30-year-old Hollywood screenwriter. ... Full Review

It was a brave film, and a sensitive one. The acting isn't bad, as such, but the screenplay is so corny and overheated the acting can't redeem it. No matter how hard I tried, or the actors tried, I was damned if I could take it seriously. ... Full Review

I have a hard time getting lost in a movie where the dialogue sounds so distinctly like actors reciting lines from a screenplay. If nearly as much attention had been lavished upon the screenplay (penned by John Duigan, who also directed), this may have been a considerably more positive review. ... Full Review

Film review "Head in the Clouds" is a pretty apt description for at least part of what's wrong with the film itself.....the tantalizing love triangle subplot are overlooked in favor of the pairing between Theron and Townshend.....And the silly, soap opera-like turns in their relationship only get more ridiculous as the film goes on.....Writer/director John Duigan's attention to detail may be impressive at times....Actress Charlize Theron is equally to blame..... ...

Even so, "Head in the Clouds" is visually and emotionally engrossing, a noble one. For that matter, these "Clouds" contain many effective moments and evocative images, thanks in no small measure to the lush cinematography of Paul Sarossy. ... Full Review
