Critic Reviews

An unlikely comedy charmer.Full Review

Lisa Schwarzbaum
Entertainment Weekly

My Best Friend, not surprisingly, is about what it means to have friends - and not to have them, to be alone. It's about connection, about trust and vulnerability. That Leconte's little film is a mild-mannered farce, makes the heartache funny, but really, this is serious stuff.Full Review

Steven Rea
Philadelphia Inquirer

The film unfolds easily, with affection for the man no one likes, and at 95 minutes it doesn't overstay its welcome.Full Review

Roger Ebert
Chicago Sun-Times

Along the way, My Best Friend offers insights into the emotional and psychological components of both friendliness and friendship. They're not synonymous, though both have value.Full Review

Mick LaSalle
San Francisco Chronicle

Leconte's writing is tight and nimble, and while the tests of the duo's friendship are facile, under the circumstances, they make sense. The bond between Francois and Bruno approximates the real thing; Leconte seems to be arguing that you can grow a flower from fake soil.Full Review
