Critic Reviews of "The Bonfire of the Vanities"
Orlando SentinelJune 28, 2013If you're interested in a faithful visual adaptation of Wolfe's novel, be assured that this isn't it.
Rolling StoneJune 28, 2013On film, Bonfire achieves a consistency of ineptitude rare even in this era of over-inflated cinematic air bags.
Seattle TimesJune 28, 2013If you loved Wolfe's book, you may very well hate the movie. If you simply liked the novel, you may be simultaneously entertained and disappointed by what De Palma and Cristofer have done to it.
Los Angeles TimesJune 28, 2013Certainly Wolfe's canvas might lend itself to a broad approach, but broad like Dr. Strangelove, not broad like the Three Stooges.
Reel Film ReviewsMay 10, 2016It's ultimately not difficult to see why The Bonfire of the Vanities was (and still is) regarded as an epic big-budget bomb...
People MagazineJune 28, 2013Brian DePalma lapses into idle, slapsticky digressions. You don't get angry at what he's attacking, or defensive; you just get weary.
Philadelphia Daily NewsJune 28, 2013Tom Wolfe's widely read satire becomes a tedious farce, turning one of the year's most anticipated movies into one of the most disappointing.
South Florida Sun-SentinelJune 28, 2013Brian DePalma`s The Bonfire of the Vanities is a perfect example of how a best-selling book can be carefully altered, perceptively pruned and converted into an intriguing motion picture.
TV GuideJune 28, 2013Reduced to pure plot, the narrative is not so much a sendup of 1980s hypocrisy as an orgy of banal, juvenile mean-spiritedness. The irony of Wolfe's book becomes shrill, screaming sarcasm, unpleasant, and, worse, unfunny.
Film4June 28, 2013In this heavy-handed and uneven treatment, De Palma drains Tom Wolfe's original story of its humour, and must shoulder the blame for its failure.
