Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 2/5 --
It takes some doing to rob the biopic of Nobel prize-winning pro-democracy Burmese activist Aung San Suu Kyi of drama and tension. But, with his skewed view of history and ropey storytelling, Besson manages it.

Rating: 2.5/4 --
[It] does indeed deal with a real life, but follows so faithfully the traditional shape of film biography that it feels less convincing.

Rating: 2/4 --
"The Lady" is a two-hour trip into earnestness, from which audiences will want a little liberation of their own.

Newsday
Screenwriter Rebecca Frayn's full feature debut is alluring, fascinating to watch and, most importantly, makes you care about Suu Kyi.

Product Description:
Director Luc Besson (LA FEMME NIKITA, THE PROFESSIONAL) teams with screenwriter Rebecca Frayn to tell the true-life story of Burmese pro-democracy activist and Nobel Peace Prize winner Aung San Suu Kyi (Michelle Yeoh), whose marriage to husband Michael Aris (David Thewlis) endured even after Kyi was placed under house arrest by her government for nearly 15 years.
