Visually, Tess is a masterpiece, capturing in amazing detail the scenery and atmosphere of the England of yore. The film's chief drawback, however, is its lack of vitality.
June 24, 2006
Tess tells one rather more about its director's much publicised preoccupations than about Hardy's themes.
January 08, 2007
Though not one of Polanski's best features, this adaptation of Thomas Hardy's challenging novel, Tess of the D'Urbervilles, is intelligent if flawed, but it's nice to look at due to excellent production values, particularly cinematography.

Roman Polanski is one of those men who, despite his icky treatment of women in real life, manages to create strong and compelling female characters for the screen.
February 19, 2010
Insufferably long, but very good in parts.
March 06, 2014
This is Kinski's show and she flat out steals it.
February 19, 2010
Tess is a sensitive, intelligent screen treatment of a literary masterwork.
New York Times

Without Mr. Polanski's name in the credits, this lush and scenic Tess could even be mistaken for the work of David Lean.
February 06, 2014
Unexciting.
October 23, 2004
This is a wonderful film.
February 25, 2014
The film, like its source, is filled with pessimistic fatalism, but it spares no pity for the instruments of fate [...] What, if anything, this meant to Polanski remains unknowable.
January 01, 2000
een in the context of Roman Polanski's career it becomes something rich and strange, shaded into terror by the naturalistic absurdism that is the basis of Polanski's style.
