Fluffy, Insipid, Banal

See it if You have watched the movie and looking for a different take.

Don't see it if You expect more or equal to the satisfaction derived from the movie. No character arc and poetry like screenplay were dampeners

“Told in a breakneck 90 minutes, this is a rare play that could bear the addition of an interval and another half hour...That said, what we do get is perceptive, funny and leavened with gradual foreboding, despite the obvious privilege on show.”

“If the play has a cooler overall effect than you would expect, it is an intriguing account of the ebb and flow of love, which is affectingly treated as a character in its own right.”

“This performance fails to engage the audience, resulting in a long 90 minutes in which we are neither transported to the streets of Paris nor a passionate love triangle...Overall, ’Jules and Jim’ is an unfortunate rare case where the movie proves a better watch than the play.”
