Community Reviews
Viewers are captivated by the stellar performances in 'Dangerous Liaisons', particularly praising Glenn Close and John Malkovich for their compelling portrayals. The film's adept translation of Choderlos de Laclos' novel into a vivid and manipulative narrative of aristocratic intrigue and seduction has been well-received. While most appreciate the film's adherence to the original story and its dramatic realism, some find certain period-specific portrayals of women and the condensed storytelling less appealing.
