In the opulent St. Petersburg of the Empire period, Eugene Onegin is a jaded but dashing aristocrat - a man often lacking in empathy, who suffers from restlessness, melancholy and, finally, regret. Through his best friend Lensky, Onegin is introduced to the young Tatiana. A passionate and virtuous girl, she soon falls hopelessly under the spell of the aloof newcomer and professes her love for him

New York Post by Jonathan Foreman
The pace slackens a little after the first hour, but the photography by Remi Adefarasin and music by Magnus Fiennes keep the emotion stoked.
Los Angeles Times by Kevin Thomas
A pleasure in all ways.
Chicago Reader by Lisa Alspector
Few things are more enthralling than unrequited love, as demonstrated by this drama.
Entertainment Weekly by Lisa Schwarzbaum
Tatyana, the embodiment of a heroine whose still waters run deep, requires more maturity than Tyler as yet possesses.
Chicago Tribune by Michael Wilmington
Despite Fiennes' splendid moodiness and Tyler's radiant vulnerability, despite lovely settings... this movie is dull.
San Francisco Chronicle by Mick LaSalle
Would have been a stronger movie if it didn't require a strong cup of coffee going in.
(Tyler's) voice is still mall American, and Onegin's rejection of her is nowhere near as puzzling or as tragic as it's supposed to be.
Portland Oregonian by Shawn Levy
A handsome, somewhat draggy and abrupt film that's more memorable in snippets than as a whole.
Philadelphia Inquirer by Steven Rea
Fiennes does this sort of inner pain thing exceedingly well, Tyler is beguiling and believable, and there is an edge of wit and grace to the proceedings.
