This was certainly very different from Blue, and frankly a bit of a letdown coming after such a masterpiece. White is much lighter than Blue, and somewhat darkly comical with a slightly absurd plot and characters that straddle the line of believability. It's by no means a bad film, but it doesn't have half the emotional heft that Blue had, and it's not as visually interesting either. I guess it's a victim of association; if I weren't comparing it to Blue I wouldn't be so hard on it.

It's the least impressive of the trilogy from an aesthetic standpoint. Delpy's attitude at the beginning is unconvincing. It doesn't really uphold the theme of "equality" that well. And the plot's climax is preposterous. But I still like it. Zbigniew Zamachowski carries the film well, making his character interesting and entertaining. The light comedy serves the trilogy well, especially coming after heavy drama of Blue. It's got a fun, vibrant story, even if it's not entirely plausible.

It may lack the somber and sublime touch of Blue, but I like it a lot more, probably because Kieslowski has such sympathy for his lovably flawed characters. When Karol (and Kieslowski) comes home to Poland the film blossoms with this incredible love and warmth despite the many obvious misgivings (The whole sequence involving Karol's return is just perfect).

By far the weakest of the trilogy in all facets; the visuals, the performances but especially plot. Early on Zamachowski was rather tiresome, only when combined again with the intriguing Gajos did the story start to come alive. The key romance, though, felt contrived and false at all stages, as such the ending (and coda in red) comes off as preposterous. Kieslowski's isolated moments of beauty help make this watchable, but it unfortunately adds nothing of consequence to the trilogy.

Inside a sandwich of two artistically-curated, seasoned, brilliantly-risen slices of film loaf used for the world’s sexiest movie sandwich I get a filling of cheese and butter, and that’s exactly how the French like it. It’s basically a bit of European comedy nonsense: a beautiful piece about friendship, and how the ideal of égalité, the joy of being human these days, basically means being punched around different bodily orifices depending on the time of day.

The first glimpse of white in the film? A pigeon shits on Karol's jacket. That sets the tone for the rest of the picture. A black comedy about love and equality, but also a satire on economic opportunism and the cost of vengeance. It's a little cryptic in places (the end), but the acting is so good and the characters are so human it hardly matters that some of it doesn't make sense.

Maybe not the emotional and esthetic wallop that Blue is, but a LOT more fun - in that bleak Forman-meets-Kaurismäki way. Also, reminding us that this is the early 90s, retroactively expands Blue from a movie where "The United Europe" was mostly an excuse for French artistes to put on a concert, to one where an entire half a continent is scrabbling and grifting to not sleep in subway stations. "Anyone can buy a corpse. Russian OK?"

Three Colors: White is a great film that manages to properly balance drama, thrills and comedy. It tells a story worth telling with characters that are worth investing in. It has many memorable moments all with different tones, and it will manage to make you cry and laugh, while also getting the adrenaline flowing. It does everything so effortlessly, even if the director seemed to be trying too hard to get us interested in the ex-wife character. That's about the only thing that White does wrong.

Amusing but uneven comedy that relies entirely on Zamachowski's quite wonderful portrait of permanent befuddlement, and a rich supporting performance from depressed Gajos. Lacks the stylistic brilliance that made BLUE a masterpiece, and credibility is stretched to the breaking point at times, but it remains very entertaining. Delpy is a wonderful and welcome presence as always.

I actually couldn't get my hands on Blue, so I watched White first. It's wonderful. Everyone says that Blue is better, and I can't wait. White is really tight and disciplined, which surprised me. The trilogy's reputation precedes it, and I expected something a little more indulgent. Don't get me wrong, this movie is way too smart for me, and I'm going to have to watch it a few more times before I fully understand it, but the bare-bones plot was damned compelling, and it had me hooked.

Karol’s idea of regaining equality is an elaborate revenge plot, but as we know, two wrongs don’t make a right. Meanwhile, the promise of a reunited Europe has led to an unequal one, with the Eastern bloc still treated with scorn by the Western countries, and the promise of opportunity leading largely to corruption. And it’s all funny as hell! (Fourth time watching, and in my fourth format - DVD, Blu-Ray, 35mm, and 4K UHD)

I think what I most enjoy about 'White' is how it reflects the French ideal of 'Equality'...for all the wrong reasons. A darkly humourous revenge tale, I found myself thoroughly entertained for the two hours it lasts. Of course, it's difficult to review the film as you inevitably compare it to the rest of Kieślowski's oeuvre, where it is a weaker effort (the ending, especially, feels 'off' to me), but really, it's still a great film. Nothing inherently wrong with it at all.

I had taken Kieslowski for being humorless so this one caught me off guard, felt like a proto-Fargo. Lots of interesting motifs and threads - hiding inside the suitcase/outside the coffin, double fake-out deaths, the path of the coin. The characters here feel more alive than in Blue, I especially enjoyed seeing Jerzy Stuhr again as the older brother after The Scar/Camera Buff.

Like its predecessor, White is about a despairing person who has lost love, but this is an amusing and preposterous tale of the lengths of desperation. It's beautifully composed, perhaps somewhat lacking an elevating poignancy, but effectively complementary to its counterparts.

I found the pacing of "White" to be much more in line with Kieslowski's earlier work. It is a regression visually when compared to "Blue" but the script and ensemble performances are welcome upgrades. I loved seeing the rebirth of Karol and the mirroring symbolism that accompanies his absurd path to revenge. Overall another excellent entry into the trilogy and I can't wait to finish with "Red".

Definitely a lighter cinematic experience than Blue. A much more developed plot with an interesting parallel of symbolism and images that surround Karol. An appropriate dose of black humor that reflects on the desperation for love and this tale of revenge. I find it a welcoming piece to the trilogy and that "white" conveys this idea of equality exactly how the color is expressed - much softer and less extreme.

Not as consistent as the other two films in the trilogy, White boasts the wonderfully comic face of Zamachowski, which plays well off of the stunning beauty of Delpy. The film contains a number of striking contrasts, as well as a thoughtful interplay between freedom and equality. Zamachowski, as the rejected lover, never stops pursuing his bride, realizing that the only way to get her back is to take the most extreme action. The opaque but hopeful ending tops the film off nicely.

Reminds me of Decalogue Ten (also starring Zamachowski), which was one of the highlights of the series for me. Though tonally lighter and more concerned with the physical world than the other two Colors entries, the complex plotting feels polished rather than contrived. Much of its success relies on the accomplished performances, but this would simply not work without anyone but Kieslowski directing.

This was unexpectedly light in tone relative to its predecessor, Blue, but it wasn't a bad thing, as Kieslowski's world-class style was still painted all over it. Zbigniew Zamachowski is a perfect schlub, so innocent in his shortcomings as to be unforgettably charming. I cannot speak highly enough of the cinematography; adhering to a single color for a motif would be so easy to screw up, but the instances of white are so deftly placed that it is both entirely fluid and beautiful.

The second installment in Kielowski's trilogy is a failure and a disappointment and this is mostly due to a terribly incoherent, uneventful and uninteresting script and the director's apparent denial to transform it into something poignant, as he had done in "Bleu", and simply settles for indifferent decency instead. Despite some interesting interactions and ideas, "Blanc" never takes off and remains exhaustingly dull until the end. It's only 91 minutes long, and yet, it feels like an eternity.

The movie does have a quiet charm, but it doesn't come even close to Blue. There are some elements of a dark comedy in the film, but I can't say I found it especially funny. The film's strength lies in good acting and some interesting characters. It's biggest flaw is the incoherent storytelling.

White starts on an interesting note (protagonist needs some time to get used-to him), and it's apparent that it's gonna be a completely different kind of experience than Blue was. Grim on one moments (Polish grey, muddy landscape!), and amusing on other. I really liked the emotional responses of characters when they were prompted into it. And the gun scene is probably legendary by now, this guy Gajos and his 'expressionless' role is wonderful, the right face for the role. Essential watch.

Compared to Kieslowski's other films, this one has much more of a plot, detailing a darkly humorous story of obsessive revenge. The pair of Zamachowski and Delpy is strong, and there are a couple of very intense scenes, but it is a bit lacking in visual flair compared to Blue and Veronique.

I knew this had a reputation for being the weakest in the trilogy, but I still couldn't shake the feeling of disappointment. While I was deeply invested in Binoche's character in Blue, this couple seemed so thinly developed that I never really connected or cared about what happened to either of them, and consequently, the film as a whole, not to mention this film is aesthetically bland compared to its predecessor. Am I being too harsh? Maybe.

Definitely the weakest of the trilogy. Isn't as stylistically arresting as Red and Blue (though still quite good in that department). The first 75 minutes of it are really great storytelling - well paced, interesting, follow our main character through a lot of changes and goes places you don't really expect it to. Unfortunately the last 10 minutes or so do feel very unsatisfying partly due to some cuts that were supposedly made and partly due to the fact that I don't buy the ending.

The least formally interesting of the Three Colors trilogy, White lacks the 'special' atmosphere of Blue and Red, resulting in a straight forward film that is almost too focussed on story and character. It's essentially a dark comedy about a jilted man's obsession to reunite with his former spouse that reflects a rather bleak view on romantic/sexual relations. It's undeniably well made, but it's hard to not think of what a more suitable director like Polanski would have done with the material.

The second film in the Three Colors trilogy is a revenge comedy that feels quite different from the other two films. It has a Chaplin-esque quality to it, but it still has a dark edge to its story much like Red and Blue.

There wasn't as much Delpy as I had hoped for, and there's even less France, but we do get multiple comb concertos so I guess it all balances out.

It's acted well and paced in a way that it never felt laborious. Yet for a "comedy" it's never really funny which makes the absurd lengths the story and characters explore just unbelievable and sometimes confusing as opposed to fuel for humor.

After Three Colours Blue, this one suffers greatly in comparison but as a Kieslowski film by its own, it is an admirable yet lesser work. The plot itself is the film's weakness, of interest but difficult to raise up to the quality of Kieslowski's other work; if it wasn't one of his films, it could easily become a standard 'Euro-drama' with little of interest. Its biggest virtue though is that, despite where the narrative goes, the sense of heart to it is always at the forefront and drives it.

Quite a while back then when I was first viewing the trilogy White was my most popular. I can see the fallacy now, but having it as a part of trilogy is complementary. It is what makes one of the grandest of trilogies edible.

Not a bad movie by itself but a major disappointment after Blue. Kieslowski seems to have lacked an idea for White and has shoehorned a very mediocre script into it. His directing is engaging but the story is incoherent and the characters and their motivations are undeveloped and utterly unrelatable. I kept waiting for the movie to pull itself together but it never happened.

To say this is an unusual film would be an understatement. Kieslowski takes a plot that would be, in the hands of virtually anybody else, a rather straightforward black comedy, and suffuses it with an air of grace and levity that make it feel far lighter than you'd expect for a film in which the characters so often treat each other with astounding cruelty. Take it as a victory of love over the senses, I suppose.

An OK revenge story filled with some interesting and complex characters, but it gets lost due to some hefty symbolism throughout the movie. I'm sorry: I laughed at the lady recycling the bottle, too (I think because I remembered the similar scene from Blue).

The weakest of the trilogy for me. It lacks a little direction and focus. But still a very pretty and effective film, and a worthy addition to one of the great trilogies.

has moments of great beauty; the gun and the scene that followed were wonderful. it certainly doesn't match up to the first though, taking a while to get into it and being rather silly at times - the way the romance went around felt especially ridiculous. great photography like the previous one, though not as good as that, and great soundtrack too.

It is my favorite. I know that is an uncommon thought, but it is amazing. Better than Blue and Red.

A igualdade é branca estreava há 30 anos na França, no dia do meu aniversário de 13 anos. Por razões agora óbvias eu não gostava desse dentro da trilogia nos anos 90, nem sequer sabia o que era patriarcado, mas certamente já sabia sobre a suposta igualdade de gêneros fictícia na prática. E o Kieslowski me faz um filme de vingança masculina de um homem branco brocha representando igualdade? Vai tomar no cu. Só pra fantasia de incel mesmo e não tem alegoria política que o salve.

White is a color of equality. Kieslowski does a black comedy, and it is not his strongest discipline. Interesting commentary on capitalism, but the love and revenge story doesn't leave much of an impression, besides being self-absorbed.

By far, the Mikolaj subplot and character study is the best part of the film.

I wish this movie had a bit more time for its plot, because there are so many crazy plot developments. A little silly, especially in comparison to its two companion movies, but very entertaining.
