Critics' reviews
- "Benigni clearly intends to make some impassioned statements (...) However, the once-appealing innocence of his exuberant persona has become curdled over time."
- "Benigni's artfully composed images are as empty as his political convictions."
- "A winsome, charming and irresistibly romantic picture, and also a profoundly self-involved one that has nothing whatever to do with Iraq or war or much of anything else besides the butterfly-like spirit of Roberto Benigni"
- "The results are neither profound nor funny, but merely uncomfortable."
- "The longer the movie goes on, the more annoying Benigni's infantile behavior becomes."
- "Perhaps a greater passage of time was needed to provide a more effective historical perspective, but 'Tiger' has a bigger problem with a dramatic structure that sags conspicuously in the middle"
