What to Know

Critics Consensus

Blake Edwards' bawdy comedy may not score a perfect 10, but Dudley Moore's self-deprecating performance makes this midlife crisis persistently funny.

A sporadically funny, marginally interesting fiasco that might have evolved into a memorable romantic comedy. Go to Full Review

4/4
Blake Edwards's 10 is perhaps the first comedy about terminal yearning. Like all great comedies, it deals with emotions very close to our hearts. Go to Full Review

'It's probably the writer/director's best film outside of the Pink Panther movies, and the portrait of the artist as a dirty aging man is one that still resonates today.' Go to Full Review

Poe W Apr 11, 2019 Not very impressed, a classic in it's own right but aged very poorly.
Jan 26, 2019 The best romcom movie ever made!
Draco S Nov 20, 2018 I loved this film. 10 is a touching, relatable, and overall hilarious movie, thanks to a great script and a hysterical performance from Dudley Moore. Criminally underrated romantic comedy from the legendary Blake Edwards. See more
Ron L Sep 13, 2018 It's the 70s and Dudley Moore is playing a drunken middle aged genius composer. What do you expect. Unnecessary nudity, out-dated humor, but other than that it's pretty fantastic. It doesn't do Dudley's talent justice in a lot of ways though. See more
Draco S Sep 26, 2017 This truly excellent analysis of masculinity, male desire, and mid-life crisis is one of the forgotten, underrated masterpieces of 70's hilarity. See more
Albus R Sep 26, 2017 "10" is far from a masterpiece, in fact, it's much more of a goofy 70's rom-com than anything else, but there's a little bit more heart and quite a few more laughs than I thought there would be here. The film is about a man (played by Dudley Moore) going through a mid-life crisis as he realizes his age is creeping up on him as he's failing to provide a spark in his relationship with the one and only Julie Andrews. What follows feels like a movie made specifically for sexually deprived teenagers, but there's definitely a little bit more to it than that. George Webber (Moore) is a film composer recognized by everyone for his famous ballads, but he rarely shares an intimate moment with people for various reasons. Spending his nights desperate to find his music again and spying on his neighbor who consistently hosts sex parties, there's not a lot going for Webber. But when he stumbles upon a young newly married woman, things begin to change. The actual plot itself isn't the most interesting, especially as it consistently meanders into slapstick comedy. I mean, George literally has a mid-day fantasy of Bo Derek slowly running on a beach Baywatch style for over a minute. It's not exactly the most tightly written or directed feature. However, I did at least connect to the Webber character in part. His relationship to Andrews is touching at times, and I have a special place in my heart for film composers. Henry Mancini's score is another gem and it's definitely a film that can be enjoyed in the background if you turn your brain off for a few hours. 6.4/10 See more
