Critic Reviews for Firebird
All Critics (8) | Top Critics (1) | Fresh (7) | Rotten (1)
A glossy and classy melodrama that soars with passion and is elevated by strong production values, heartfelt performances and a story arc that journeys to unexpected destinations.
Though it tells a familiar tale of forbidden love, this slick and heartfelt wartime drama is a timely reminder of continued Soviet prejudice against LGBTQ+ people.
Unfortunately it's sometimes hard to sympathize with a couple of men who use their friendship with Luisa as a shield. But the lead actors are sexy, and if the movie's dramatic beats sometimes feel old-fashioned, that's not always a bad thing.
Our queer elders were brave folks-we owe it to them to be braver with their stories.
After a monastic-like lockdown, aren't we all in need of a dreamy romance? Firebird is it.
The intentions behind Firebird are sincere even if the execution favours the melodramatic.
