Rating: 2/5 --
Quality roles for John Hurt must be at a severe minimum if the greatly underutilized actor needs to revisit his 1975 triumph as gay icon Quentin Crisp.

It deserves to be seen for another of Hurt's exquisitely observed performances.
Hollywood Reporter
As a raconteur he had his moments but you could only listen to so many cod Confucian aphorisms about life, love and death ("Beauty is in the eye of the possessor"; "Every day you live is a kind of triumph" etc) without wanting to punch someone yourself.

Observer (UK)
Rating: 3/4 --
This fresh look at the gay culture and its desired goals establishes profound insight into what it means to be a true-to-spirit man these days, no matter if he happens to wear a little lipstick and maybe a scarf or two.

Falls somewhere between unbearable and fascinating.

Metro Weekly (Washington, DC)
Hurt's perf gives some dramatic continuity to a production that is more a succession of setpieces than a through-drama per se -- at least until its affecting later stages.
