5/10
"Likely has an audience out there, but I'm not it, nor are most of the people who will be checking it out for its much-hyped casting of Pattinson as a gay-experimenting Dalí."  AfterElton.com  Brian Juergens

C-
"A dry, dull retelling of a typical gay coming-of-age tale that's invigorated by neither the period backdrop nor the fact that the characters were real people."  One Guy's Opinion  Frank Swietek

"A disappointing biopicture about the relationship between the poet Federico Garcia Lorca and the artist Salvador Dali."  Spirituality and Practice  Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat

D+
"limps along about as lifelessly as one of Dali's melting clocks"  Old School Reviews  John A. Nesbit

1/5
"For a movie about revolutionary artists whose motto was “No limits,” there’s a long list of things holding back Little Ashes."  Boxoffice Magazine  John P. McCarthy

C
"...the translation of young Dalí into a homoerotic Vogue model places the actor, rather than the character, front and center."  Reeling Reviews  Laura Clifford

"[O]nly indiscriminate vampire-swooning tweens will appreciate [Pattinson's] portrayal of the surrealistic Spanish painter and filmmaker Salvador Dalí."  Flick Filosopher  MaryAnn Johanson

2.5/5
"Shying away from the big issue, Morrison leaves us feeling oddly removed from what is otherwise a beautiful, heartbreaking story."  Shadows on the Wall  Rich Cline

3/10
"Exactly the kind of flavorless bourgeois froth that the men it takes for its subjects would have ridiculed mercilessly."  Antagony & Ecstasy  Tim Brayton
