Roman Holiday

I was really looking forward to Roman Holiday, but it doesn't compare to what I actually got! I could say without hesitation that this is the best romantic film of all time, and that would still be an understatement. A gorgeous Audrey Hepburn (does she also reminds you of Natalie Portman?), a handsome Gregory Peck and magical Rome full of beautiful ancient monuments. An unforgettable combination that runs like clockwork. 100% (19/08/2012)

Watching this couple is simply a joy. Peck and Hepburn understand each other perfectly and there is necessary chemistry between them. You will simply fall in love with them, also because they are in Rome and this is actually a fairy tale about a princess and a prince who unfortunately is not of noble descent. A wonderful example of how Hollywood knew how to make romances that are beautiful, emotional and story-wise interesting. I'm just afraid that the past tense is appropriate. (24/11/2014)

A well-made romantic comedy from a time when gallons of pathos didn't have to compensate for the writers' incompetence because it wasn't necessary. America's obsession with the fact that the cheeky island has what America lacks is manifested by the constant making of films about various princesses and other noblemen, but when it comes to Roman Holiday, I don’t mind in the least. I guess it's because it's a real film with real actors and real performances, whereas most other similar American films are trash. (26/12/2017)

Audrey was sweet as always, plus she and Gregory lit up the screen. The beginning was funny, as time went on the joke faded and you could slowly feel what was coming. And then a bittersweet ending comes, what else? Say goodbye and face your responsibilities. A black and white romantic comedy that I can easily recommend to everyone. It's not stupid like the ones that are currently being made in Hollywood. A better 4 stars. (16/01/2011)

The purest story that touches the heart. Audrey Hepburn's angel and Gregory Peck's charisma play wonderfully in their time in an amazingly witty comedy with believable romance. And just when I started thinking that Wyler was overdoing it a bit, the ending came with a press conference and a climax full of deep gazes, the sweetest smile, and a stylish departure... (28/01/2006)
